The following
program presents principles
00:00:01.01\00:00:02.53
designed to promote good health
00:00:02.54\00:00:04.14
and is not
intended to take the place
00:00:04.15\00:00:05.93
of personalized
professional care.
00:00:05.94\00:00:07.88
The opinions and ideas expressed
00:00:07.89\00:00:09.47
are those of the speaker.
00:00:09.48\00:00:11.01
Viewers are encouraged to draw
00:00:11.02\00:00:12.30
their own conclusions
00:00:12.31\00:00:13.39
about the information presented.
00:00:13.40\00:00:15.68
Have you ever
wondered why God created night?
00:00:17.49\00:00:21.13
So we can sleep, you say.
00:00:21.14\00:00:22.84
Then why aren't we? Stay tuned.
00:00:22.85\00:00:27.77
I'm Dr James
Marcum. Are you interested
00:00:27.78\00:00:30.95
in discovering the reason why?
00:00:30.96\00:00:33.36
You want solutions to
your health care problems.
00:00:33.37\00:00:36.23
Are you tired of
taking medications?
00:00:36.24\00:00:39.02
Well, you're about to be given
00:00:39.03\00:00:40.85
the ultimate prescription.
00:00:40.86\00:00:42.68
The world is filled with rhythm.
00:00:44.82\00:00:46.64
The pounding of
ocean waves in the shore,
00:00:46.65\00:00:48.96
the cadence of insect songs,
00:00:48.97\00:00:51.07
even the beating
of our own hearts,
00:00:51.08\00:00:52.84
all seem to be gears in
some great cosmic time piece.
00:00:52.85\00:00:56.82
On day four of creation week,
00:00:56.83\00:00:58.59
God put in motion a
rhythm that if ignored
00:00:58.60\00:01:02.40
can bring dire
consequences to our health.
00:01:02.41\00:01:05.33
Dr. Marcum, enlighten us.
00:01:05.34\00:01:07.91
Wow, Charles. When
people think about rhythm,
00:01:07.92\00:01:11.01
you know, sometimes
you think about music. Yes.
00:01:11.02\00:01:13.59
You think about
all different things,
00:01:13.60\00:01:15.14
but there is a true
cosmic rhythm that God designed,
00:01:15.15\00:01:18.58
given to us back in
the book of Genesis.
00:01:18.59\00:01:21.21
The Bible being our
Biblical prescription,
00:01:21.22\00:01:25.62
the Bible being our template
for how we want to live,
00:01:25.63\00:01:29.09
talks about this
importance of cadence,
00:01:29.10\00:01:32.14
of rhythm and how when we change
00:01:32.15\00:01:34.43
these natural walls
and we don't live by them,
00:01:34.44\00:01:36.73
we again put
stress on our system.
00:01:36.74\00:01:39.72
And just think about it.
00:01:39.73\00:01:40.81
We were designed to
be at work all day long,
00:01:40.82\00:01:44.41
living in a garden.
00:01:44.42\00:01:45.62
We were designed
to rest at night.
00:01:45.63\00:01:48.16
How many people are
really resting at night?
00:01:48.17\00:01:50.73
Out there we have our
biggest meal at night.
00:01:50.74\00:01:53.37
We sometimes, Charles,
00:01:53.38\00:01:54.58
we sometimes stay up
late watching television.
00:01:54.59\00:01:57.32
We have ipods. And
what about the computer,
00:01:57.33\00:01:59.87
an email? Yes.
00:01:59.88\00:02:01.18
Oh, no there is a phone call
00:02:01.19\00:02:02.52
that comes into my cell phone.
00:02:02.53\00:02:03.69
I've have to get it.
But the original design
00:02:03.70\00:02:06.35
is we were in a
garden taking care of it,
00:02:06.36\00:02:08.52
and we were
supposed to rest at night,
00:02:08.53\00:02:10.55
be working in the day.
00:02:10.56\00:02:11.79
When we violate these laws,
00:02:11.80\00:02:13.51
these circadian
rhythm become broken.
00:02:13.52\00:02:16.55
Stress is put on our system.
00:02:16.56\00:02:18.64
We do it long enough,
00:02:18.65\00:02:19.70
the stress
cascade that we've talked
00:02:19.71\00:02:21.55
about before, gets turned on.
00:02:21.56\00:02:24.25
You know we look at people--
if you are prison of work,
00:02:24.26\00:02:26.68
Charles, and I
wanted to torture you
00:02:26.69\00:02:29.21
I would make you sleep deprived.
00:02:29.22\00:02:30.79
I would keep lights
on you all the time.
00:02:30.80\00:02:32.54
I would hurt your
brain. I would try
00:02:32.55\00:02:33.83
to break you down.
00:02:33.84\00:02:35.35
Yes, yes. Well,
guess what's happening
00:02:35.36\00:02:37.17
to us in the world today. Yeah.
00:02:37.18\00:02:38.91
We are being broken down.
00:02:38.92\00:02:41.10
We're not resting well at night.
00:02:41.11\00:02:43.46
Not only that,
according to Genesis,
00:02:43.47\00:02:45.90
we are also designed
to have a weekly rest.
00:02:45.91\00:02:49.30
The creator of the universe
00:02:49.31\00:02:50.95
do not have any health problems.
00:02:50.96\00:02:53.18
Perfectly well, and
yet He knew in His wisdom
00:02:53.19\00:02:56.31
that we would need to
rest a weekly rest well.
00:02:56.32\00:02:59.68
We came apart from
everything that we done.
00:02:59.69\00:03:01.99
And how many of
us now are violating
00:03:02.00\00:03:03.84
these laws at night as
well as we're violating
00:03:03.85\00:03:06.57
this weekly laws
and guess what happens.
00:03:06.58\00:03:08.77
There is dire
chemical consequences.
00:03:08.78\00:03:11.46
So it's hard
when I get someone in.
00:03:11.47\00:03:12.94
They want to not
have heart disease,
00:03:12.95\00:03:14.58
or they don't want to have all
00:03:14.59\00:03:15.58
other health problems.
00:03:15.59\00:03:16.92
When you talked them about this
00:03:16.93\00:03:18.18
treatment called, Rest.
00:03:18.19\00:03:20.33
So rest is a
treatment for disease.
00:03:20.34\00:03:22.92
It's also way to
prevent disease, all in one.
00:03:22.93\00:03:26.18
Another Biblical
technological principle
00:03:26.19\00:03:28.99
that we see today.
00:03:29.00\00:03:30.07
Now you're using
even stronger language.
00:03:30.08\00:03:31.66
You're saying
it's a law. Oh, yeah.
00:03:31.67\00:03:33.36
It's not just a
principle. Oh, yeah.
00:03:33.37\00:03:34.54
Now this is
something like gravity. Yeah.
00:03:34.55\00:03:37.91
If you jump off of a
building you are going to--
00:03:37.92\00:03:40.25
on this world,
anyway, you gonna drop down
00:03:40.26\00:03:42.43
and you gonna do some
bodily harm to yourself
00:03:42.44\00:03:44.67
and perhaps lie down there.
00:03:44.68\00:03:46.10
That is a law that if
broken has consequences.
00:03:46.11\00:03:49.22
Are you saying that
the circadian rhythm,
00:03:49.23\00:03:52.01
the sleeping,
that if we go to bed
00:03:52.02\00:03:54.59
and if we changed
our systems so much
00:03:54.60\00:03:58.77
that that we're
sleeping in the day time
00:03:58.78\00:04:01.15
and working at night
that we're doing something
00:04:01.16\00:04:03.38
that is
breaking a law of health?
00:04:03.39\00:04:05.19
That's exactly right.
00:04:05.20\00:04:06.55
You know the
sun needs to circle,
00:04:06.56\00:04:08.75
you know, the earth
needs a circle to sun.
00:04:08.76\00:04:10.51
If it didn't do that,
00:04:10.52\00:04:11.57
we would have dire consequences.
00:04:11.58\00:04:12.80
That's true, that's
true. When the body doesn't
00:04:12.81\00:04:14.51
do what it was designed to do,
00:04:14.52\00:04:15.99
why it end up in
dire consequences.
00:04:16.00\00:04:17.98
It only makes
sense. But you know what,
00:04:17.99\00:04:19.80
we're proving this
chemically now. Yes.
00:04:19.81\00:04:21.82
We know that people that
don't rest well at night.
00:04:21.83\00:04:24.12
They don't sleep well.
00:04:24.13\00:04:25.16
There is a medical
condition called, sleep apnea.
00:04:25.17\00:04:27.52
Have you heard of
that, Charles? I have.
00:04:27.53\00:04:28.74
Okay. That's a condition
that affects many people
00:04:28.75\00:04:31.54
where they don't
sleep well at night.
00:04:31.55\00:04:33.33
Well, one of the causes
00:04:33.34\00:04:34.39
of sleep apnea is being heavy.
00:04:34.40\00:04:36.50
You know, you get a lot
of tissue around your neck.
00:04:36.51\00:04:38.62
You go to bed at night.
00:04:38.63\00:04:39.75
You can't get that air way open,
00:04:39.76\00:04:41.39
so you spend basically most
00:04:41.40\00:04:43.19
of your night gasping for air.
00:04:43.20\00:04:44.73
I've seen videos of this.
00:04:44.74\00:04:45.89
I mean they
actually stop breathing for--
00:04:45.90\00:04:48.59
for many seconds
during this time.
00:04:48.60\00:04:50.58
And someone out
there in the audience
00:04:50.59\00:04:52.25
might have sleep apnea.
00:04:52.26\00:04:53.26
So if you have a loved one
00:04:53.27\00:04:54.68
that at night they do like this.
00:04:54.69\00:04:58.71
And they had that
startled response.
00:04:58.72\00:05:00.23
They might have sleep
apnea. But can you imagine
00:05:00.24\00:05:02.56
what happens
chemically to your body,
00:05:02.57\00:05:04.57
if you spend
one-third of your life
00:05:04.58\00:05:07.55
not getting
enough oxygen. Oh, my.
00:05:07.56\00:05:10.03
One-third of your life
not getting enough rest,
00:05:10.04\00:05:12.34
the chemical consequence,
so you don't get enough rest.
00:05:12.35\00:05:14.69
So the next
morning you wake up tired.
00:05:14.70\00:05:16.55
Well, guess what, you drink,
00:05:16.56\00:05:17.64
smoke, and joke. Get drive up.
00:05:17.65\00:05:20.10
And then you run on
with no energy all day long,
00:05:20.11\00:05:22.62
your body isn't allowed
itself to heal at night,
00:05:22.63\00:05:25.07
symptoms of sleep
apnea, you're being tired.
00:05:25.08\00:05:27.45
You might have headaches.
00:05:27.46\00:05:28.58
You might have high blood
pressure and heart disease.
00:05:28.59\00:05:30.99
I see funny heart rhythms,
00:05:31.00\00:05:32.55
all these things just
because people have sleep apnea.
00:05:32.56\00:05:35.93
Well, this is just one example
00:05:35.94\00:05:37.77
of not getting enough rest.
00:05:37.78\00:05:38.96
There is other
examples of peoples--
00:05:38.97\00:05:40.93
let me tell you a
story here, real quick. Yes.
00:05:40.94\00:05:43.03
I had a gentleman
that had been to some
00:05:43.04\00:05:45.03
of the best heart
doctors in the United States.
00:05:45.04\00:05:47.92
He was in his 50s and already
00:05:47.93\00:05:49.36
had a second bypass
surgery with a bypass around.
00:05:49.37\00:05:52.08
And yet he was still having
chest pain. He came to me.
00:05:52.09\00:05:54.85
He was on all
the right medicines,
00:05:54.86\00:05:56.54
all the right dose.
00:05:56.55\00:05:57.54
He just wanted a second opinion.
00:05:57.55\00:05:59.48
And as I do, I started
00:05:59.49\00:06:00.54
talking about the stresses
00:06:00.55\00:06:01.91
and he worked at a
Fortune500 company.
00:06:01.92\00:06:04.04
He stayed up till
01:00 a.m. every night.
00:06:04.05\00:06:06.31
Just teaching him
how to rest nightly,
00:06:06.32\00:06:09.10
his chemistry started to better.
00:06:09.11\00:06:10.36
His cholesterol came down.
00:06:10.37\00:06:11.69
His blood pressure came down.
00:06:11.70\00:06:13.08
His
sedimentation rate came down--
00:06:13.09\00:06:14.22
His cholesterol
came down? Yes, yes. Wow.
00:06:14.23\00:06:16.03
You know, a lot of
things happen great for him
00:06:16.04\00:06:18.33
and then the next
thing we started him,
00:06:18.34\00:06:19.70
I said listen do you believe
00:06:19.71\00:06:20.78
this principle
called nightly rest?
00:06:20.79\00:06:22.35
How about this weekly rest?
00:06:22.36\00:06:24.06
So he started
taking a day off to rest.
00:06:24.07\00:06:26.79
All of a sudden his chemistry
00:06:26.80\00:06:28.29
started to improve dramatically.
00:06:28.30\00:06:30.48
So this rest is a
treatment for disease
00:06:30.49\00:06:32.66
and how many times you
go into a doctor's office
00:06:32.67\00:06:35.13
and they listen I need to write
00:06:35.14\00:06:36.73
a prescription for rest,
00:06:36.74\00:06:38.18
or they even ask you about it.
00:06:38.19\00:06:39.96
And yet this is not only
a cause but it's a plangent.
00:06:39.97\00:06:42.61
If you're a
baseball player, Charles,
00:06:42.62\00:06:44.13
and broke your
arm, I wouldn't let you
00:06:44.14\00:06:46.23
keep throwing
fast balls I would say
00:06:46.24\00:06:48.18
rest to arm and allow to heal.
00:06:48.19\00:06:50.82
Well, the
ultimate physician okay,
00:06:50.83\00:06:54.06
in his knowledge
knew that at night
00:06:54.07\00:06:56.18
we need to rest
'cause we need to take heal
00:06:56.19\00:06:58.37
from all the work we did.
00:06:58.38\00:06:59.63
We need to recover also.
00:06:59.64\00:07:01.75
We needed a weekly
recover from the week.
00:07:01.76\00:07:04.23
And this is a cycle that exists
00:07:04.24\00:07:06.46
and if we break this
cycle, bad things happen.
00:07:06.47\00:07:08.72
We need modern
medicine to fix things.
00:07:08.73\00:07:11.79
So this rest is very important
00:07:11.80\00:07:13.84
as not only a treatment
but a prevention of disease,
00:07:13.85\00:07:16.74
and if I wrote a prescription
for you for rest every night,
00:07:16.75\00:07:20.10
rest one day a week,
you would think I'm crazy.
00:07:20.11\00:07:22.53
But, you know
what, if I was able
00:07:22.54\00:07:23.90
to do the chemical studies
00:07:23.91\00:07:25.21
and showed this is what's
happening to your chemistry.
00:07:25.22\00:07:27.55
This is how your
body is improving.
00:07:27.56\00:07:29.05
This is how you're
avoiding infections.
00:07:29.06\00:07:30.63
You're avoiding heart
disease, heart attacks.
00:07:30.64\00:07:32.52
You're sleeping better at night.
00:07:32.53\00:07:33.98
You have energy, no depression.
00:07:33.99\00:07:35.67
If I could show you that data,
00:07:35.68\00:07:37.13
boy, people would
be in line for this.
00:07:37.14\00:07:38.59
Yes, absolutely. So
the day-night cycle the--
00:07:38.60\00:07:42.99
the fact that God put a
sun up there that moves around,
00:07:43.00\00:07:47.40
the earth moves
around I understand,
00:07:47.41\00:07:49.24
and the moon and the stars--
00:07:49.25\00:07:51.47
they're not up
there just for enjoyment.
00:07:51.48\00:07:53.10
They're not up
there just to say,
00:07:53.11\00:07:54.17
oh, isn't that
pretty? They're up there
00:07:54.18\00:07:55.36
for a reason to
remind us that okay,
00:07:55.37\00:07:58.72
now it's time to sleep.
00:07:58.73\00:08:00.56
Now it's time to wake up.
00:08:00.57\00:08:02.32
Now it's time to
work. Now it's time to rest.
00:08:02.33\00:08:04.96
And if we stay in the cycle
00:08:04.97\00:08:06.98
everything from
our fatigue levels
00:08:06.99\00:08:09.55
to our cholesterol are
effected, that's amazing.
00:08:09.56\00:08:12.27
that's amazing. Okay, let's say
00:08:12.28\00:08:15.14
that there is a viewer
00:08:15.15\00:08:16.23
out there right now
saying, well, Dr. Marcum,
00:08:16.24\00:08:19.05
I'm eating good food
00:08:19.06\00:08:20.73
that you've talked
about on the other show.
00:08:20.74\00:08:22.73
I'm deep
breathing. I'm drinking water.
00:08:22.74\00:08:25.83
I'm doing fine
here, but you know,
00:08:25.84\00:08:28.89
I just can't seem
to get into the rhythm.
00:08:28.90\00:08:32.22
I can't seem to
go to sleep at night.
00:08:32.23\00:08:34.79
I can't seem to
get up in the morning.
00:08:34.80\00:08:36.74
I am just all
messed up in my schedule.
00:08:36.75\00:08:40.15
What would you
say to that person
00:08:40.16\00:08:41.49
to begin the
journey back to being able
00:08:41.50\00:08:44.54
to be in sync with God's rhythm?
00:08:44.55\00:08:47.28
And that happens everyday
00:08:47.29\00:08:48.92
when people come to the office
00:08:48.93\00:08:50.10
and one of the
most dangerous things
00:08:50.11\00:08:51.59
I see is people that
works in nightshift. Yeah.
00:08:51.60\00:08:53.75
They have a hard time
00:08:53.76\00:08:54.87
straightening
out their chemistry.
00:08:54.88\00:08:56.74
Well, the first step I
try to really convince people,
00:08:56.75\00:08:59.42
Charles, is let them know
00:08:59.43\00:09:00.55
that this lack of
sleep is lack of a pattern
00:09:00.56\00:09:03.36
has chemical consequences
that's damaging the body.
00:09:03.37\00:09:06.53
And likewise when
we can do it correctly
00:09:06.54\00:09:08.72
it's a treatment for the body.
00:09:08.73\00:09:10.61
So once they believe that,
00:09:10.62\00:09:11.94
I say listen now
that you believe that--
00:09:11.95\00:09:13.45
It's a prescription you
say? Yes, it's a prescription.
00:09:13.46\00:09:15.12
All right okay. And I say comes
00:09:15.13\00:09:16.25
from the
ultimate physician, okay.
00:09:16.26\00:09:18.08
So let him help us.
00:09:18.09\00:09:20.27
We need all the help we do.
00:09:20.28\00:09:21.52
You know, I
believe that we can't make
00:09:21.53\00:09:23.21
these changes in our self.
00:09:23.22\00:09:24.96
We need the extra power.
00:09:24.97\00:09:26.73
If we do it in our
self we become selfish.
00:09:26.74\00:09:30.03
So we wanna do
it for the reason.
00:09:30.04\00:09:31.58
So I ask people,
ask the power of God,
00:09:31.59\00:09:34.20
the Holy Spirit, to
teach me about this.
00:09:34.21\00:09:35.91
And I say, well,
let's try some things first.
00:09:35.92\00:09:38.13
Let's look at
your sleep patterns.
00:09:38.14\00:09:39.44
What time you go to bed?
00:09:39.45\00:09:40.74
What are you doing at night?
00:09:40.75\00:09:42.16
Are you having a big meal night?
00:09:42.17\00:09:44.33
Are you taking
prescription medicines
00:09:44.34\00:09:46.12
that might disrupt you?
00:09:46.13\00:09:47.45
Might you have a medical
condition like sleep apnea?
00:09:47.46\00:09:50.79
Might you be doing things
00:09:50.80\00:09:52.78
that stimulate
your mind at night?
00:09:52.79\00:09:54.46
A prescription
you said just before,
00:09:54.47\00:09:56.01
what kind of prescription,
what we're talking about?
00:09:56.02\00:09:57.40
What kind of pills?
Well, certain medications
00:09:57.41\00:09:58.73
can stimulate the body, okay.
00:09:58.74\00:10:01.05
We have people
that take diet pills.
00:10:01.06\00:10:02.72
Sometimes that can
stimulate the body at night.
00:10:02.73\00:10:05.29
You know, they eat
their big meal at night.
00:10:05.30\00:10:06.91
They want to speed it up.
00:10:06.92\00:10:08.32
So there are certain pills
00:10:08.33\00:10:09.67
that can sometimes keep us up.
00:10:09.68\00:10:11.03
These are called
stimulates. Stimulates okay.
00:10:11.04\00:10:13.58
And you know, you
hear methamphetamines,
00:10:13.59\00:10:15.33
you hear lot of legal
and illegal stimulates.
00:10:15.34\00:10:17.37
You take a night cup of
coffee. Right, right, yes.
00:10:17.38\00:10:19.09
And you just drink
that. caffeine is a stimulant.
00:10:19.10\00:10:22.00
And alcohol
messes up sleep patterns.
00:10:22.01\00:10:24.81
There is a host of chemicals
that we take that mess,
00:10:24.82\00:10:26.99
even a big meal at night
00:10:27.00\00:10:28.27
messes up your sleep pattern.
00:10:28.28\00:10:29.87
One of the biggest
things that I think
00:10:29.88\00:10:31.44
messes up sleep pattern
is television. Television.
00:10:31.45\00:10:35.32
Television goes into the brain.
00:10:35.33\00:10:37.22
It gets our mind reds up.
00:10:37.23\00:10:38.69
We start turning
on parts of the brain,
00:10:38.70\00:10:40.51
the limbic system, the stress
part of our brain turns on,
00:10:40.52\00:10:43.64
the prefrontal
cortex is not as activated
00:10:43.65\00:10:46.67
and this messes
up sleep patterns.
00:10:46.68\00:10:48.52
There is a host of
other stresses in our life.
00:10:48.53\00:10:50.58
So I try to walk a patient
00:10:50.59\00:10:52.47
through that in
each individual thing
00:10:52.48\00:10:54.18
and try to make
one change at a time
00:10:54.19\00:10:56.33
and when they do that we see
00:10:56.34\00:10:57.51
if they can sleep
a little bit better
00:10:57.52\00:10:59.09
and the first thing is
I always try to get people
00:10:59.10\00:11:00.81
is to cut back on
television at night,
00:11:00.82\00:11:03.26
the big meal at night,
00:11:03.27\00:11:04.86
do that first
maybe even exercise
00:11:04.87\00:11:06.68
who are the more
tired during the day.
00:11:06.69\00:11:08.68
And then I also
ask them after that,
00:11:08.69\00:11:10.57
I say listen you know
you do this for a while.
00:11:10.58\00:11:12.27
And why don't
you have a down day,
00:11:12.28\00:11:14.04
one day a week, why
don't you have the down day.
00:11:14.05\00:11:16.13
It's a Biblical
perspiration given
00:11:16.14\00:11:17.74
by the ultimate
cardiologist. Yes, yes.
00:11:17.75\00:11:20.10
And why don't
you just do down day.
00:11:20.11\00:11:21.72
And better yet if you
could even choose to worship
00:11:21.73\00:11:23.81
that day that's
even better than rest
00:11:23.82\00:11:25.53
and for other reasons.
00:11:25.54\00:11:26.96
So I start
walking them through this
00:11:26.97\00:11:28.55
and I move them through.
00:11:28.56\00:11:29.80
So I say do this
one thing at a time,
00:11:29.81\00:11:31.41
but we have to convince them
00:11:31.42\00:11:32.73
that their
chemistry really changes.
00:11:32.74\00:11:34.39
This makes
perfect sense. It does.
00:11:34.40\00:11:36.03
But why don't
we hear about this.
00:11:36.04\00:11:37.30
We don't hear about it anyway.
00:11:37.31\00:11:38.45
If I was trying to
destroy the world again,
00:11:38.46\00:11:41.51
if I was trying
to mess everything up
00:11:41.52\00:11:43.75
I will take away a weekly rest
00:11:43.76\00:11:46.86
and that would
damage our bodies,
00:11:46.87\00:11:48.01
not to mention damage
the ultimate relationship
00:11:48.02\00:11:50.31
with the power
came from. That's right.
00:11:50.32\00:11:51.96
Then I would mess
up the nightly rest
00:11:51.97\00:11:53.78
and cause all these bad
chemical stress reactions
00:11:53.79\00:11:56.63
too much
adrenaline, too much cortisol,
00:11:56.64\00:11:58.72
no sleep at night
messing up the way we think,
00:11:58.73\00:12:01.37
causing us to develop
other habits that hurt us,
00:12:01.38\00:12:03.77
that's what I would
do to destroy the world.
00:12:03.78\00:12:05.48
And, you know what,
that's what's happening today.
00:12:05.49\00:12:07.33
Exactly yes that's seem--
And that's what I wanna tell
00:12:07.34\00:12:09.19
to our viewers out there.
00:12:09.20\00:12:10.88
You can do something
about it in part of it
00:12:10.89\00:12:12.58
just knowing that
this problem exists.
00:12:12.59\00:12:14.63
Yeah. I like that
so you're telling us
00:12:14.64\00:12:17.40
that when the evening time comes
00:12:17.41\00:12:19.63
turn off the television,
00:12:19.64\00:12:21.94
don't eat that big meal,
you might want to make sure
00:12:21.95\00:12:24.33
you're hydrated little bit,
00:12:24.34\00:12:25.64
just maybe a glass will be fine
00:12:25.65\00:12:27.14
not too much as
you said before. Okay.
00:12:27.15\00:12:30.56
Those of us who are the types
00:12:30.57\00:12:34.06
who are our brains
are just going constantly,
00:12:34.07\00:12:36.44
what can we do to
slow our brains down
00:12:36.45\00:12:38.75
as we get towards
the evening hours?
00:12:38.76\00:12:39.86
Well, couple of
things that will turned down
00:12:39.87\00:12:41.48
our stress chemistry
is taking deep breathes,
00:12:41.49\00:12:44.27
hold it five
seconds, breathe out, okay.
00:12:44.28\00:12:46.93
I ask people to turn to
the word, the word of God.
00:12:46.94\00:12:50.07
He says, "Come into me and
I will give you this rest."
00:12:50.08\00:12:53.84
Well, that's a spiritual,
physical rest as well.
00:12:53.85\00:12:56.62
So as we open up the scriptures
00:12:56.63\00:12:58.23
and open up God's word
00:12:58.24\00:12:59.49
and pray to Him
that will also relax
00:12:59.50\00:13:01.33
and some people like
to have a quite music,
00:13:01.34\00:13:03.83
some people like to
have baths it relax them,
00:13:03.84\00:13:06.29
some people like to go on walks,
00:13:06.30\00:13:08.37
some people like
to read other things.
00:13:08.38\00:13:10.10
So there is many different ways
00:13:10.11\00:13:11.56
based on who you are
to help relax the body.
00:13:11.57\00:13:14.91
All right, very important stuff.
00:13:14.92\00:13:16.94
We're gonna take a break now.
00:13:16.95\00:13:17.99
When we come
back we're gonna start
00:13:18.00\00:13:19.07
