Waking up at specific hours during the night may be more than just a random occurrence—it could be a sign that your body’s energy meridians are out of balance. According to ancient Chinese medicine, different organs are energized at different times of the night, and disturbances during these hours may indicate unresolved emotions or physical imbalances.
For instance, difficulty falling asleep between 9:00 pm and 11:00 pm could be linked to stress, while waking up between 1:00 am and 3:00 am may signify anger or liver-related energy issues. Interestingly, the hours between 3:00 am and 5:00 am are associated with the lungs and sadness, but they are also considered a time when your Higher Power may be trying to communicate with you. Paying attention to these signals and practicing relaxation techniques such as meditation, deep breathing, and self-reflection can help restore balance and improve sleep quality.
