Vitality Supreme
·

As
I
have
already
said,
those
who
are
lacking
in
vitality
and
who
are
trying
to
build
strength
need
more
sleep
than
those
who
are
already
strong.
Especially
those
who
find
it
difficult
to
sleep
need
additional
nervous
strength
and
should
carefully
observes
rules
that
will
promote
sleep.
One
will
often
hear
sufferers
from
insomnia
complain
that
they
never
sleep!
They
are
convinced
that
night
after
night
and
week
after
week
passes
without
their
being
able
to
close
their
eyes
in
slumber.
They
are
deluded
in
every
case,
because
they
could
not
maintain
life
for
more
than
five
or
six
days
if
this
were
true.
The
fact
is
that
they
drop
off
to
sleep
and
then
awaken
without
being
conscious
that
they
have
been
asleep.
At
the
same
time,
in
all
such
conditions,
it
is
necessary
to
improve
the
quality
of
sleep
so
that
it
will
be
truly
refreshing.
I
have
already
referred
to
the
influence
of
good
healthy
muscular
fatigue
as
a
means
of
enabling
one
to
sleep.
Walking
and
out-of-door
life
will
in
almost
every
case
make
the
nervous
man
or
woman
sleep
like
a
child.
One
should
not
be
too
fatigued,
but
sufficiently
so
to
thoroughly
enjoy
the
sensation
of
lying
down.
One
cannot
truly
enjoy
sleep
except
when
he
has
reached
this
condition
of
bodily
fatigue.
To
induce
this,
I
would
recommend
a
walk
in
the
evening
before
going
to
bed,
covering
several
miles.
Although
walking
for
health
should
ordinarily
be
brisk
enough
to
stimulate
breathing
and
arouse
an
active
circulation,
thus
strengthening
the
internal
organs,
for
the
purpose
of
promoting
drowsiness
the
last
mile
or
two
of
the
evening
walk
should
preferably
be
very
slow.
Fast
movements
are
stimulating
to
mind
and
nerves.
Slow
movements
have
a
sedative
effect.
By
walking
very
slowly
as
if
one
were
tired
the
desired
effect
of
fatigue
is
more
satisfactorily
secured.
One
imagines
the
need
of
rest
under
such
conditions.
