Gen 2:21 So the LORD God made him fall into a deep sleep,
and he took out one of the man's ribs.
We may have known this story...
When Adam was asleep. God took his ribs and created a woman.
But I'm not talking about the creation of soul mate,
I'm talking about the deep sleep.
It's amazing how God created something called sleeping.
There are even another scriptures about sleeping
Jer 31:25 Those who feel tired and worn out will find new life and energy,
Jer 31:26 and when they sleep, they will wake up refreshed.
See, how God made sleeping so beautiful for humans :D
From the e-book 'How to sleep less and have more energy than you ever had before", by Kacper M. Potawski, the author described the 5 stage of sleeping.
Stage 1 Sleep : it's a doorway to our sleep. Happens in times such as when we were daydreaming, or drowsing off.
Stage 2 Sleep : The brain gradually turn itself off.
Stage 3 & 4 Deep Sleep : The most important stages of sleep. Our blood pressure, respiration and heart rate reach their lowest point of the day. We restores our cells, our broken tissues on this stage.
Stage 5 Rapid Eyes Movement Sleep : it's the stage when we were dreaming.
What we need most for our body is obviously the deep sleep. God created this deep sleep to restore our body and give us energy (you could find out more in the e-book).
And to have a deep sleep, as the book described, we need to have :
- Enough sunlight in the day. God has created the good sun for us, so don't stay forever in your room. Get a life :D
- Enough exercise. You must have balance in everything. Balance your work and your exercise. Your spiritual and also your physical body.
And one thing for sure, you can ask God to give you a deep sleep.
Always pray before you sleep, 'God give me a deep sleep tonight, so I may wake up refreshed, with new life and energy', as the scriptures said. And it works ! Trust me :D
