Brahma muhurta is a period of two muhurtas , or about one and a half hours before dawn. Ayurveda and Yoga recommend waking every day before dawn, to align with oneself with earth’s cycles, achieve good health & for spiritual awakening.. ++

Ashtanga Hridayam- “brahma muhurtam uttishthet swastho rakshartham Ayusha:tatra sarvartha shantyartham smareccha madhusudanam”.
Translation: ‘One should wake up in the brahma muhurta for sustaining perfect health and for achieving a long life span, as desired. ++
•According to the International Journal of Yoga and Allied Sciences, during the pre-dawn period, there is the availability of nascent oxygen in the atmosphere. This nascent oxygen easily mixes with hemoglobin forming oxyhemoglobin, which has the following benefits: ++
~Boosts the immune system
~Increases energy level
~Helps maintain the balance of blood pH
~Relieves pain, soreness, and cramps
~Enhances the absorption of minerals and vitamins
•The pineal gland is secrets maximum melatonin during Brahma Muhurta, which is known to stabalize the mood. So one should wake up during this time and pratice meditation to make most use of it.
•Early morning exercises remove stagnation in the body and mind, strengthen the digestive fire, reduce fat and give you an overall feeling of lightness and joy as it fills your body with good prana. ++
• Scientific research has determined that in brahamuhurat, the oxygen level in the atmosphere is most (41%) and lesser pollution. ++
•Studies prove that early risers generally have a lower BMI (body mass index) and consequently are less likely to suffer from obesity. According to the same study, the earlier you get up the less likely you are to develop diabetes, or suffer from depression or insomnia. ++
•Tuning our biological clock to the rising and setting of the sun, is the best way for reversing the aging process. Waking up during this brahma muhurta puts us in perfect synchronization to the natural clock ++

If you have a spiritual practice, this would be a good time to double down on it.

If you don’t have a spiritual practice, this wouldn’t be the worst time to start one.

Thread on why


Do yr spiritual practice. Even when you don't feel like it.

“Hardly does our head begin to ache than we stop going to choir, which won’t kill us either. We stay away 1 day bc our head ached, another bc it was just now aching & 3 more so that it won’t ache again.” Teresa of Avila

Ok: a spiritual practice. Something that you do regularly, and if you do it with the right intention, can transform your relationship to yourself, other people, the world and your place in it and (if this resonates with you) the divine.

Prayer. Meditation. But also: making art. Walks in nature. Going running, for some people. I wrote a whole entire book on parenting as a spiritual practice. Intention matters.

You don’t have to be religious to have one.
