Have you ever woken up at the same time every night and wondered why it keeps happening? While modern sleep science often connects repeated waking with factors like stress, sleep habits, environment, or health conditions, some traditional practices offer a different way of looking at these patterns.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) describes a concept known as the “body clock,” which suggests that different periods of the day are connected with specific organs and emotional themes. Although this idea is part of traditional belief rather than modern medical science, many people find it meaningful as a tool for reflection and mindfulness.
