How much night can there be?

Some of you are waking up in the dark of the night and wondering why on earth you are up! Why can't I just sleep through the night like everyone else does and wake up refreshed and ready to rock? Well the answer is adrenaline. Yup good old adrenaline, coursing through your body like hot electricity.

The body's system is designed to shut down at night for clean up and repairs. That begins at 9 pm with the thyroid coming on line and running a system's check. If there are issues, the real work begins. Fever, we need those sometimes to bring stasis back to the bloodstream, to clear virus and bacteria, enzymes and bile to clear parasites and undigested food and insulin to work with all the excess sugar we ingest, that feeds the fungus that grows rampant in many of us.

The only time we heal is when we are sleeping, the only time we lose weight and toxins is in the night when we are detoxing naturally.

What happens when the systems we need like liver or lungs, for cleaning are plugged up? ADRENALINE. The thing that makes your heart go thumpety thump thump super fast, fight or flight, fear or anger, yup that's what wakes us up and keeps us awake. It is designed to PROTECT YOU. AND MOST OF US NEED PROTECTION FROM OURSELVES AND OUR LIFESTYLES.

So don't be scared or frustrated anymore, the night is your friend, find someone to teach you how to clean up your body and your choices and welcome a peaceful night's healing rest once again. Maybe start with one of my clay baths for now, at first they seem a little intense but after a couple of baths your body will begin to let go. Here's to a happy holiday filled with rest and recovery.
