SLEEP SECRETS

According to the most common one is to sleep and let your body rest tired after a hard day. But behind that, actually in our sleep can also learn. It means sleeping in nature we can solve problems that normally we can not solve the real world. As long as we sleep may be part of our body organs passive, but the mind / brain we still bekrja. Moreover, people who before going to bed still thinking about a problem or work normally in the world will sleep thinking that problems will arise, and usually appears too way out of an issue with it. That make it a habit to pray before bed.

RAHASIA TIDUR

Menurut sebagian orang umum tidur hanyalah untuk mengistirahatkan tubuh dan melepaskan lelah setelah seharian bekerja keras. Namun dibalik itu, sebenarnya dalam tidur kita juga bisa belajar. Maksudnya dalam alam tidur kita dapat memecahkan masalah yang biasanya tidak bisa kita pecahkan dalam dunia nyata. Selama kita tidur mungkin sebagian organ tubuh kita pasif, namun pikiran / otak kita tetap bekrja. Apalagi orang yang sebelum tidur masih memikirkan suatu masalah atau pekerjaan biasanya dalam dunia tidur pun pikiran akan masalah itu akan muncul, dan biasanya muncul pula jalan keluar dari maslah tersebut. Untuk itu biasakanlah berdoa sebelum tidur.
