My interest in the 'energy being' theme comes from a lifelong curiosity about forces and life forms beyond what we usually see.

You can train it to enter REM for short periods of time throughout the day in 20-minute naps rather than in one lump at night. Remarkably, adding just one nap during the day shaves an hour and forty minutes off your total sleep requirement. Powernapping Scientific experiments and anecdotal evidence suggest that an average power-nap duration of around 1 - 2 hours is most effective.Mitsuo Hayashi, Ph.D. and Tadao Hori, Ph.D.have demonstrated that a nap improves mental performance even after a full night sleep. REM sleep, this particular sleep state is highly conducive to f...
