Brahma Muhurta (The God Time) – The Time of Creativity

Brahma Muhurta (The God Time) – The Time of Creativity

Since school, I’ve had one question: why did my parents strongly wake us from our happy sleep by saying it was Brahma muhurta (God’s time)? Always insist on sleeping early and getting up before sunrise. I recall when everyone in my village got up early in the morning. Even though all Yogis, saints, and sadhus get up early in the morning. While reading the novel, I learned that the most important habit of successful and influential people is to wake up early in the morning (before sunrise, particularly between 3:30 and 5:30 a.m.), such as Shree Narendra Modiji, Honourable Prime Minister, Apple CEO Team Cook, Disney CEO Robert Iger, Rajnikanth and Akshay Kumar, famous Bollywood actors, business tycoons Mukesh Ambani, etc.

Why wake up on Brahamha Muhurta?

In our ancient literature, the hour between 3.30 a.m. and sunrise is referred to as Brahma muhurta, which means God’s time, time of creativity, period of self-creation, or performance.
At this time, both nostrils are active. “You will be able to breathe better,”.
There is no one to disturb at this hour. As a result, it is an excellent time to consider and pursue creative activities. At this hour, the pineal gland secretes a lot of melatonin naturally.
During Brahma muhurta, your mind is busy, your senses are awake, and you are more perceptive.

Early to bed and getting up early is a healthy and wealthy lifestyle

Brahma Muhurta is a very beneficial moment in the 24-hour cycle of a day. It improves human intellectual property by promoting various suitable biological events that nourish neurons and all critical organs of the body. It modulates mental instability and is hence very useful for yogic practices.

If someone connects their lifestyle with a biological clock, their health will be protected against various ailments. In short, Brahma Muhurta is an auspicious period for physical, mental, social, and spiritual well-being.

There is an old belief that sleeping 6-7 hours at a time is enough to keep a person healthy but the time we sleep is the most important factor. The best sleeping time is 9 pm to 3.30 am or 5.30 am (before sunrise). Working late at night and sleeping late at night is the most harmful for everyone who comes under the human category. Ayurveda’s 9-point sleep pointer idea is necessary to comprehend sleep time.

One who goes to bed and gets up early is healthy, wealthy, and wise.”
Because of our poor lifestyle, we are currently losing the most effective treatment, which is a universal remedy for ailments. Sleep is the most economical health insurance plan available, with no worries or costs. Researchers estimate that 104 million Indians suffer from OSA, with 47 million experiencing moderate to severe cases.

Significance of Brahma Muhurta

Improves the genetic, endocrine, excretory, circulatory, respiratory, reproductive, and nervous systems. As a result, it has an overall impact on physical, mental, social, and spiritual health.

Balances Vata, Pitta, and Kapha: Vata (movement and communication), Pitta (digestion and transformation), and Kapha (cohesiveness, structure, and lubrication).

Respiratory system: Improves oxygen capacity. Nascent oxygen is present in the environment, and it mixes with hemoglobin to generate oxyhaemoglobins. During Brahmamuharta, oxyhemoglobin reaches peripheral tissues, increasing immunity.
The excretory system helps maintain physiological homeostasis by regulating the channel and sodium ion transport. It appears to be an important regulator of kidney function.

Genetic: Meditation increases chromosomal length and telomeres, which can enhance lifetime.
Reproductive System: Melatonin levels decline in the morning. Melatonin hormone regulates both spermatogenesis and folliculogenesis.

Endocrine system:  Endorphin and serotonin levels increase during Brahma Muhurtha.
Nervous System: Pineal Gland Activation. According to Sadhguru, the pineal gland secretes the most during Brahma Muhurta, which occurs between 3.30 and 5.0 a.m., or around 1 hour and 36 minutes before sunrise. This is a significant time for spiritual seekers, students, intellectuals, and everyone to reflect, transform, create, mediate, and perform. Melatonin, a hormone generated by the pineal gland, helps you feel sleepy after you turn down the lights and boosts the production of the hormone melatonin, which helps you fall asleep.

We have many misconceptions regarding sleep. The simple concept is that you will not get enough sleep if you sleep late at night. This has direct and indirect effects on the genetic, endocrine, excretory, circulatory, respiratory, reproductive, and neurological systems. Be attentive ahead of time and adhere to our traditional Ayurvedic approach rather than chasing the modern hybrid lifestyle for a better future and health. Have a healthy good night’s sleep.
