5 Ways Sleeping Naked Can Benefit You



It appears that sleeping naked is not only sexy, but is also beneficial for one’s health. Here are five surprising (and scientifically confirmed) ways sleeping in your birthday suit can benefit your health and well-being:
1. BETTER QUALITY OF SLEEP :
An Australian study concluded that some forms of insomnia can be provoked by improper body temperature regulation at night. Another study showed that the regulation of in-bed body temperature could significantly help in reaching a deeper sleep. In one study in particular, Dutch scientists placed thermosuits on participants in order to lower their skin temperature without affecting core body temperature. As a result, the participants had an uninterrupted sleep and spent more time in the deep sleep stages.

So if you are using heavy blankets or wearing warm clothes at night, it can negatively affect your sleep.
COMBAT BELLY FAT AND LOWER CORTISOL LEVELS
Natural body cooling at night can also help you lower your cortisol levels. Cortisol, or the so-called stress hormone, is responsible for a number of disorders, including high blood pressure and cholesterol levels, disturbed sleep and increased appetite, hormonal imbalances, and a weak immune system.
Between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m., when your body is resting deeply, the cortisol levels reach their minimum. After 2 a.m., the glands that produce cortisol start working more actively in order to prepare the body for the next day and make you feel energized when you wake up.
When you don’t get enough sleep, you wake up with abnormally high cortisol levels, which is likely to stimulate your appetite (especially for comfort foods, such as sweets and cakes) and enhance the tendency to over-eat. Needless to say that this can contribute to increasing your belly fat.
STIMULATE THE RELEASE OF ANTI-AGING HORMONES
Keeping your body or your bedroom at a temperature higher than 70˚F (21˚C) prevents the release of melatonin and growth hormones, which are most vital anti-aging hormones.

The Differences Between Prayer and Meditation

There have been many discussions over the usefulness of prayer and meditation. But what’s the difference? Are there any similarities between the two? Definitions Let’s look at the definitions to see if we find any similarities or differences: Prayer :   to make a request in a humble manner; to communicate God with adoration, confession, supplication, or thanksgiving. Meditate :   to engage in mental exercise (as concentration on one’s breathing or repetition of a mantra) for the purpose of reaching a heightened level of spiritual awareness. They both use the mind. They both are concentrated thoughts. But their goals are different. In theory, there are 7 billion different types of prayer. There are also 7 billion different types of meditation. Each person has a different goal for their session. Thousands of different prayers exist, as do thousands of meditations. Both can be silent or spoken aloud. It would be silly to try and generalize, saying that all praye...
