NATURAL SLEEP – HOW MUCH SLEEP DO WE NEED? (DAYLIGHT AND DARKNESS)

Our eyes were given to us by our Creator to enjoy and explore the light and what each day unfolds. They are a miracle and we should look after them well. The daylight opens them in the morning, and when night falls it is natural to close them in rest. For what other reason were we given alternate light and darkness? Modern man, however, came along and invented artificial light for himself, allowing him to prolong the day indefinitely. First he used kindling and candles, then paraffin and gas, until the invention of the electric light bulb made it even more simple to switch on the artificial light and continue working at any time of the night. No longer can we say, as once was said: ‘Come, let’s make an end to the day and go to bed, for we have endured its cares for long enough.’ Now we can think of other ways, besides sleep, for banishing the cares of the day – by doing more work or by dissipating our night hours in pleasures to help us forget our troubles. Thus, although artificial light seems useful and practical to us, we have forgotten that we have changed the natural rhythm of life to suit our own transient mood, personal need, or perhaps just to comply with a certain set of circumstances.
