But deep sleep, one of the primary things that's happening is you need to give your mitochondria a rest because your mitochondria are what produce all the energy that you need for producing everything in your body, for maintaining it, for repairing it, and for distributing it properly and for keeping it going across the lifespan. And so your mitochondria are going to essentially take a nap, take a rest. They don't go off because you die, but they really turn down the volume of the work they're doing. But then you take your metabolic rate way lower than that. And so you can build up the reserves of energy that you had used up the day before.
So sunlight is when you wake up in the morning, I said before that your mitochondria have not gone to sleep literally, but they've really slowed down the earth. It's like they're on a nap. And there's a transition when you wake up where the mitochondria have to say, oh, you've woken up. Now I need to, I need to wake up and I need to start producing more energy. And sunlight going into your eyes, being translated into your brain, is the signal that actually tells your brain to organize that. And so what happens as a result of that is that signaling helps your mitochondria adapt and start producing everything and actually helps them adjust.
And so a lot of people think that like if their mitochondrial function is declining, they should feel tired all the time. But that's not necessarily the case. It might be that you're just losing the energy that you need to actually help the mito, you know, the mitochondrial chemical energy to help control how you use energy. And so you are wasting it as anxiety and that's coming out of productivity.
