Today I will share a health tip on the importance of getting the recommended amount of uninterrupted sleep daily to help you too. There are both short-term and long-term negative effects of poor sleep that may affect your day-to-day tasks. In the long run, poor sleep quality can increase the risk of you developing dementia and cognitive issues. Getting seven to eight hours of sufficient sleep daily can help the brain recover and enhance your thinking. You can improve sleep by optimizing your bedroom environment and adjusting your daily habits and routines to allow you to get to bed earlier. Eliminate any barriers that keep you from getting adequate sleep including excessive screen time, especially in the one hour before bed.
The joke of the day is already here to spark some delightful giggles. It’s entitled, “Secret of Champions.”
The reporter asked the race car driver:
“Every time you participate in races, you are the last one. Today you came in first. What was your secret to winning after all that losing? Could you please share it with us?”
“My brakes weren't working!”

And now we have a heartline from Ming-Jie in China:
Most Respected Master Ching Hai and dear Supreme Master TV team, The world is in turbulence and people are suffering from hunger. Most people would like to get salvation; however, the deep-rooted old notions badly block their way to see Light. There are also those who are sincerely striving to find the Truth, but struggle to find a Master. As a disciple-to-be, I feel extremely fortunate to have come in contact with the Quan Yin Method and sincerely ask to be saved. Please take me Home with You. I am forever grateful! Respectfully, Ming-Jie from China
Lucky Ming-Jie, We are grateful for your message and pray that everyone will be awakened soon. Our Cherished Master welcomes with open arms those who seek liberation. May you and the good-hearted people of China be forever nurtured by the uplifting loving power of the Universe, Supreme Master TV team
P.S. Master offers these supportive words for you: “Serene Ming-Jie, it is beautiful that you have a solemn yearning to return to your original Self-nature. Believe in the Divine with sincere faith and your prayers will be answered soon. Sending you lots of love. May the Buddhas in the ten directions always protect you and your heroic country of China.”
