Broken Heart- Wake up early and insomnia
Wake Up Early Due to Interruption of Organ Metabolism during Night
It is a very painful insomnia issue and more likely broken heart issue when you wake up early after fallen asleep for just a few hours. The problem is that it is quite difficult to fall asleep again around the early morning hours. In Chinese culture, as human beings, we do have biological clocks for our body organs, such as the stomach, heart, liver, and kidney, lung, etc. We rely on Nature and Nature affects our functions to stay energetic. The following list is a brief timing table of metabolism for each main body organ:
Brief Time Table of Organ Metabolism during Sleeping
11pm-1am Gall Bladder Time
1am-3am Liver Time
3am-5am Lung Time
5am-7am Large Intestine Time
Therefore, if you wake up early and interrupt the natural process of the organ recovery process, it cannot be resumed, and our body will start a new cycle automatically. Lost is lost, like spilled milk. But the good news is that our body is built for flexibility, the same applies to insomnia. By and by, if we take care of our broken heart to maintain the balance between mind and body, the good energy will return and a healthy sleeping cycle will be resumed as well. But Mind and Body Balance is not merely an empty mantra to avoid waking up early. We have to truly understand the deep truth beneath a broken heart, then we can resume the original healthy balance between mind and body.
2 Bio-System of Body for the Day and the Night
It is very important to realize that we all have 2 biological systems. One is the bio-system active when we are awake, and the other is the bio-system active when we are asleep. They are called Yang and Ying respectively. The Ying energy has to be stored during the night and exchanged for the Yang energy during the day. Otherwise, we will feel exhausted soon. With a broken heart, we feel restless and use up our Yang energy during the day without leaving room for Ying energy at night. Ying energy cannot be reproduced and exchanged for Yang energy as a result of a broken heart. Our body can be seen as the battery which only serves as the carrier of Yang energy. Therefore, what we truly need is to cure the broken heart and get the rest because we do need to constantly charge our energy during sleep each night.
When we fall asleep, our soul enters into the state of dormancy. We stop earthly activities, stop pumping out energies and leave the body at rest. During sleep, all organs are recovering and regenerating the energy for the day. There is a saying that our soul migrates into another world when we fall asleep especially when we have a lucid dream. To fall asleep is to enter into the world after death according to old sayings. It sounds scary and mysterious but I think scientific as well. For more information, I will delve deeper in my book Static Meditation. A broken heart disrupts the fine balance of energy exchange.
The Consequence of Not Realizing Ying and Yang energy for Insomnia
If we do not realize the importance of Ying for Yang energy as they are two sides of the same coin in the issue of insomnia, we will lose Yang, which is our life in the long term sooner or later. Gradually, after exhausting too much Yang energy, our body will become a dead battery, the organic capacity to absorb Ying energy will be severely diminished. This is why some heartbroken people cannot have their energy recharged after sleeping. To wake up early is the early symptom of an exhausted body and a broken heart. If we can redress the body and mind imbalance at this stage, we can avoid the complete deprivation of sleep down the road as insomnia progresses.
Conclusion: The solution is to balance mind and body
In a word, to know the biological clocks of our main body organs during night sleep and how the two bio-systems Ying and Yang exchange energy to maintain our life, are the two keys to understanding the insomnia problem. The root cause and the ultimate solution lies in our broken heart which messes up with our mind and body balance. It is a soulful topic, however.
