- If you have any doubts about the link between mind and body, or the power of meditation, watch this docu clip from the history channel, about a Harvard professor's research on how Tibetan monks using the g Tum-mo technique can generate enough internal heat to dry off wet sheets placed on their bodies at extremely low temperatures? Still not convinced, see this article in the Harvard Gazette on the same topic.

During the winter when it was really cold, I forget now, but in the 30s in here, I think, around 11pm when it must have been more cold, I tended to stop being worried and as soon as I relaxed I got so much warmer, I mean really comfortably warm. (with a coat on, of course, but still)
And, in the morning the temperature in my room was warmer than the hall and living room which I guess is because of the heat from my body and breathing.
In sleep I think we breathe the most deeply.
