Sleep required

[Germo]

Its a topic that is intresting and ofcourse its very individual. I want to ask if everyone is experiencing the same. Since i am doing different forms of meditations, Whim hof breathing, and also cold shower i tend to sleep less between 4-6 hours. After waking up i feel fresh and rested. I also do use mouth taping at night, and try to be conscious of my breathing in daily basis (nasal breathing), where i just slow it down and then pay antention on exhaling (pause). Okay, so these small changes can cut down sleep quota. I know that some people, or even science claim that we "need" to get 7-8 hours of sleep.  And some people are worryng how to sleep more. But it would be intresting actually how to rest and spend less time on sleeping, while getting rest and feel good. And yes, diet or time shceduled eating can have huge impact on sleep, when we consume less calories, or doing intermittent fasting. Anyway, if we keep it with ease, we have more energy and resources, it means less sleep is needed, right so? 

 

I hope it makes sense, my shitty English skills ...

The more in tune with your spirit you are, the less sleep you require, the less food you require, the less physical sources of energy/regeneration you require. When i am out in nature and eating only fruits or water i sleep 2 - 4 hours max and have full energy but in the city i require 4 - 6 hours and when i consume heavier foods i require longer.

All depends on diet/lifestyle and how spiritually in-tune you are. There are some Enlightened beings who do not require sleep at all because they are fully embodied in god-self thus in meditative state 24/7 and no longer require food or water.
