Hey there,
Eric Thompson here.
You know I have a morning routine that would make even the most dedicated early bird proud.
That’s right.
Since I started diving deep into the wonders of the pineal gland…
I’ve been aligning myself with the natural rhythms of the Earth.
For example, waking up as soon as the sun peeks over the horizon.
They call it circadian rhythms, but I call it nature’s alarm clock.
And let me tell you, it’s a game-changer.
Today, I want to share with you one of my favorite practices: sun gazing.
No, I’m not suggesting you stare at the sun until your retinas fry.
I’m talking about a safe, ancient practice that’s been used to boost health enhance spiritual well-being, and…
You guessed it…
Supercharge your pineal gland.
So, What Is Sun Gazing?
Sun gazing is the practice of looking at the sun during safe hours…
Usually the first hour after sunrise and the last hour before sunset.
This is when the sun’s UV index is low and safe for your eyes.
It might sound a bit kooky, but trust me…
This practice has a plethora of benefits.
It’s like giving your pineal gland a morning espresso shot…Minus the caffeine jitters, of course.
Benefits of Sun Gazing
First off, let’s talk about the biological benefits.
Sun gazing can help regulate your sleep patterns by supporting the production of melatonin in your pineal gland.
Melatonin is that magical hormone that tells your body, “Hey, it’s bedtime!”
When you get regular exposure to natural sunlight…
Especially in the morning…
Your body’s internal clock gets a much-needed reset.
This means better sleep, more energy…
And who doesn’t want to feel like a million bucks every day?
Sun gazing can also boost serotonin levels…
Which is your body’s natural mood stabilizer.
More sunlight exposure means more serotonin…
Which translates to better moods and a happier you.
Now, let’s get a bit mystical.
The pineal gland, also referred to as the third eye…
Is believed to be the seat of our soul and a gateway to higher consciousness.
When you practice sun gazing, you’re not just soaking up some rays…
You’re also awakening your third eye.
This little gland in your brain loves the sun…
And when it gets regular doses of sunlight…
It functions at its best…
Enhancing your intuition, creativity, and even your psychic abilities.
How Sun Gazing Positively Impacts the Pineal Gland
On a biological level, the sunlight stimulates the pineal gland through the eyes.
This gland, which is about the size of a grain of rice…
Is incredibly photosensitive.
When you sun gaze, the light travels through your eyes…
And sends signals to the pineal gland…
Encouraging it to produce melatonin and serotonin.
This process helps regulate your sleep-wake cycle, boost your mood…
And improve your overall hormonal balance.
Spiritually speaking…
Sun gazing is like charging up your third eye’s battery.
The practice has been linked to increased spiritual awareness…
And a deeper connection with the universe.
As you regularly sun gaze…
You may find that your intuition becomes sharper, your thoughts clearer…
And your connection to your higher self stronger. It’s like turning the volume up on your inner guidance system.
Tips for Safe Sun Gazing
Alright, now that I’ve got you all excited about sun gazing…
Let’s talk about doing it safely.
The last thing I want is for you to end up with sunburned eyeballs.
- Start Slowly: Begin with just 10 seconds of sun gazing and gradually increase the time by 10 seconds each day. Your goal is to work up to about 10-15 minutes.
- Choose the Right Times: Only gaze at the sun during the first hour after sunrise or the last hour before sunset. This is when the UV index is low and safe for your eyes.
- Stay Consistent: Try to make sun gazing a regular part of your routine. Consistency is key to reaping the benefits.
- Barefoot on Earth: If possible, stand barefoot on natural ground (grass, soil, sand). This practice, known as earthing, can enhance the benefits of sun gazing by grounding your energy.
- Listen to Your Body: If at any point your eyes feel uncomfortable, stop immediately. This practice should never cause pain or discomfort.
- Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to keep your body hydrated and help flush out any toxins.
Bringing It All Together
Since incorporating sun gazing into my routine, I’ve noticed incredible changes.
Not just in my health, but in my overall well-being.
My sleep has improved, my mood is consistently uplifted…
And my intuition feels like it’s been turbocharged.
And let’s be honest, who doesn’t want a little extra psychic oomph?
Sun gazing has been a cornerstone practice for many ancient civilizations…
And it’s time we bring it back into our modern lives.
Aligning ourselves with the natural rhythms of the Earth and soaking up the sun’s life-giving rays…
Can unlock the full potential of our pineal gland and step into a more vibrant, awakened state of being.
So, are you ready to give sun gazing a try?
Trust me, your pineal gland will thank you.
Just remember to take it slow, stay safe, and enjoy the journey.
