How the body works: lesson 1

Sleeping is something that's not uncommon to anyone. We all do it (sooner or later..), but do we reflect upon why we do it?

Well, for a number of reasons really, but one of them is to let the body detox. Your body detoxes every single night. This is the reason you shouldn't eat closer than two hours before you go to bed, in two hours the stomach has time to do most of the job upon the food you've been eating, so by giving it two hours before sleep, it can do a better job detoxing. 

When you fast, your digestive organs and intestines slows down because of the scarcity of food to work with. And because of the lack of work, the bodys natural need for sleeping is also taking a step back, decreasing the hours of sleep needed (which of course vary from person to person).

You'd think that if you fast, you should be so tired from the lack of energi that you'd easily sleep twice as much. I'd wish!! But nope, that's wrong.. When I fast, I get to sleep every other night. I'm so tired I just wanna drop dead.

Yeah, I know, I'm an idiot for doing this, but it's a five day fast, saturday I'm gonna force myself to start eating again (not over-eating! had enough of that last week, thank you)

So to all you sleeping ones out there:

"Goodnight, and sleep tight, don't let the bedbugs bite.

But if they do, slap them in the head with a shoe!"

We've been fighting for a while now, me and Ana. I've been failing alot. Failing makes her angry, which in turn makes me depressed, leading to me failing again.   It is time now, for me to take my responsibility. It is time now, for us to m...

"The first feeling was that of terrible constriction. With the sudden act of walking, her infinite dimensions were all at once reduced to a single point. She was compressed back down to the margins of her body, tangled up within its lumpen weight. A ...
