“I am too busy these days, hence no time for exercise or having breakfast! No time to call friends and relatives! “
“There was too much traffic today, hence I was late”
These are very common statements people make these days. Why? Because they go to bed very late and wake up after 7 AM and have to reach office at 9 AM when traffic in most cities are at its peak. Because you are late, you hurry and then worry, your day starts and ends very bad and makes it less productive. Continue this for few days, weeks and months, you achieve less success in life, your health deteriorates and you end up unhappy, stressed and wondering what went wrong in your life!
There is a way out. Start the day early by waking up at ‘Brahma Muhurta” which is the time between 3 and 6 AM or most precisely one hour thirty six minutes before sunrise. What are the benefits of getting up early every day?
Let us start with a famous quote by Benjamin Franklin – Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise. And how true it is!
Essentially, we are all a combination of the three gunas sattva, rajas and tamas. Brahma muhurta is the time when our sattvika guna is strong and the mind is calm, free from distractions of the world and the intellect fresh from a good night’s sleep. It is the ideal time for studies, meditation, thinking and reflection, etc. Rajas manifests itself after 6 a.m. It is the time when the day’s activities begin, children have to get ready for school, mothers have to prepare food for the family and office-goers begin getting ready for work. These mark the beginning of a cycle of hectic activity. It is after sundown that tamas begins to manifest itself, a time when all indulgent activities begin.
Benefits of Waking Up Early
- Ideal time to plan your daily exercise. Because it is done in the morning, there is hardly any chance for you to forget or cancel this practice.
- Ideal time for reading, studies and meditation is in the morning when your mind is fresh and brain frequency is at the Alpha-Theta border, from 7Hz to 8Hz. (where the optimal range for visualization, mind programming and using the creative power of your mind begins). Good for students and adults alike.
- Have enough time for breakfast, the most important meal of the day that keeps your energy level the highest throughout the day making you alert and productive.
- Can leave for work early, beat the traffic and reach early, finish routine work before everyone else reaches and you can schedule appointments for meetings and discussions. You are more productive and successful.
- Waking up an hour early gives you almost two months of extra work hours in a year thereby making you even more productive and successful.
If you want a boost in your productivity, health, wealth and overall sense of wellbeing, try waking up early; it may give you the extra edge you need to reach your goals.
