THINGS TO DO EVERY NIGHT BEFORE BED

 *THINGS TO DO EVERY NIGHT BEFORE BED* 


1- Take Care Of Your Body


●Brush your teeth after dinner. Ensure that you brush your teeth to avoid germs and food particles housing in them, as a result producing bad breathe in the morning and exposing your teeth to cavities.

●Floss- Simply flossing your teeth can make them look brighter by removing plaque and excess food particles that you may not see in the mirror or in areas that your toothbrush doesn’t reach. It also helps prevent tooth decay and can reduce the risk of developing gum disease by removing plaque.

●Wash or have a warm bath.

●Use lotion on your body.

●Carry out your skin routine.


2- Stop Screen Time 2 Hours Before Bed


We are always so quick to reach out for our smartphone and gadgets especially as Creators, Writers, Bloggers, Curators, and Influencers in the online world. The need to always be abreast is vehement by checking news feeds, updating your socials and replying messages is quite luring and distracting in terms of preparing your mind for a sound rest and it will surprise you to know that blue light emanating from the gadgets can speed up blindness, damage your eyes and prevent you from getting adequate rest.


3 - Reflect And Visualize


A feedback loop is extremely needed in the cause of survival,  knowing where you stand and how you are doing, checking up on yourself to evaluate and re-evaluate your outlined goals is very important.

At this moment, chunk out time to unplug, highlight what went right in your day, what went wrong, what was achieved, what didn’t go as planned and try to resolve it.

If you have a score to settle, endeavour to do settle it; do not sleep in with a negative impulse because while you rest your conscious mind, your subconscious is making connections to your day, generating codes to function for the next day.

If your mindset has been influenced or programmed negatively due to your experience, your subconscious beings to dwell and works with that. The brain is always working so it is essentially mandatory that before retiring for the day you run a check and correct wrong infiltrations.

Do not sleepover with them; the council of your mind works with the progression of your thoughts and activities, so guide your thoughts outline and resolve them; thinking is the way you talk to yourself so speak positively with an impetus of possibilities.


4 - Read Before You Sleep


What you consume before bed is very important it plays a long way in your subconscious that is why sometimes after watching your favourite movie you start having dreams of the characters and sometimes of yourself or after a conversation you begin to dream about it.


Your subconscious preserves and works with what the conscious produces and dwells on; so feed your mind with positivity. I always try to read a page or chapter from my current read or any motivational books to strengthen me and feed my subconscious with positive preservatives.


5 - Meditation


The calmness of the mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom when meditation is mastered. The mind is unwavering like the flame of a candle in a windless place, there is a serenity of peace that nobody can steal in that quiet moment.


So learn to slow down, get lost intentionally, stretching spiritually; it helps relieves stress and improves the quality of your sleep.


By making meditation a routine, a consciousness develops and gradually you will reach a point of highest consciousness where your calm mind becomes the ultimate weapon against your challenges.


 6 - Pray


There is something so powerful about connecting with the spiritual and I don’t miss any chance to connect. I appraise and thank God for the ability he has given me to achieve and take charge of survival.  I empower my fourth dimension here and go further in appreciating the universe for every good that is yet to come my way.


7- Set The Scene


●Dim the light.

●Wear comfortable clothes.

●Wrap your hair up.

●Take off your make up.

●And Dream big while you sleep.

GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Ath-thalaatha. 28th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Tuesday 7th May 2024). *_GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD_*. Aameen.  Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: The Prophet (SallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "Charity is obligatory everyday on every joint of a human being.* If one helps a person in matters concerning his riding animal by helping him to ride on it or by lifting his luggage on to it, all these will be regarded as charity. A good word, and every step one takes to offer the compulsory congregational prayer is regarded as charity; and guiding somebody on the road is regarded as charity." [Sahih Al-Bukhari, 4/2891]. To show gratitude to ALLAH for keeping your body safe and sound, you should give in charity or do charitable deeds. Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: ALLAH'S Messenger (sallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "The strong is not the one who overcomes the people by his strength, but the strong is the one w

NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 29th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Wednesday 8th May 2024). *_NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH_*. BismilLah.  Even though feelings of Panic, stress/worries etc are part of life, they must not reduce our acts of worship or trust in ALLAH. The more a man turns to ALLAH and focuses on HIM, the more he will feel a sense of peace and comfort, to an extent that no one knows except ALLAH. Hence those who know ALLAH, are close to HIM and fear HIM are the happiest of people, to such an extent that one of them said, in a well-known expression: “If the kings and the sons of kings knew what joy we have, they would fight us for it with the sword.” This is also what is expressed in the Qur’an, as ALLAH says: “Whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him ALLAH will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and ALLAH will p
