【就是不想睡】熬夜是在燃燒自己的健康

⭐ 有人說迷戀熬夜是一種病
⭐ 十個熬夜的人九個都有拖延症
#星期六放輕身心

熬夜的十萬個理由
現代人生活多姿多采，「早點睡」永遠是一個美好但難以實現的願望，誰不知道早點睡對身體好？誰不知道晚睡會無精神皮膚差又有熊貓眼？但偏偏每一晚都有原因令我們不願入睡！以下三種常見的熬夜原因，你屬於哪一種？熬夜傷陰又傷肝，還是及早脫離夜貓子的生活吧！你會慢慢見到健康和皮膚狀況都有所改善。

．習慣性熬夜
年輕人嘛哪個會早睡？不少人在晚上12時才開始精彩的一天，煲劇、打機、玩電話，或者無所事事地東摸摸西摸摸，不經不覺就摸到凌晨兩三點！習慣成自然每晚要到半夜才開始有睡意，偶然想早點睡也不能順利入睡。
✔建議方案：提早進行睡前儀式，例如洗澡、刷牙、敷面膜等，逐步提前入睡時間。

．報復性熬夜
「只有半夜才是屬於我的時間。」「媽媽熬的不是夜，是自由。」很熟悉的兩句對白吧？！不少人在白天工作忙碌，或者像全職媽媽般整天都在照顧別人，唯有到晚上才擁有真正屬於自己的時間，明明已經累到不行，但仍然要看一集韓劇或拿著手機不停滑，其實都是在做心理補償。
✔建議方案：適量的放縱是可以的，但不妨列個睡前清單令自己適可宜止，例如打機過了一關就要立即睡覺。

．壓力性熬夜 
香港人工時長為全球之冠，工作壓力大，白天時腦袋不停在轉，到了晚上也未能放鬆，更甚者要把工作帶回家，思慮過多便令人有失眠問題，難以入睡、睡不安寧、多夢都屬於失眠範疇，想睡而不能睡真的非常痛苦。
✔建議方案：睡前做瑜伽、打坐放鬆心情
✔推介茶療：難入眠
功效：寧心安神，紓緩常思慮過度以致難以入眠的症狀。

3 common reasons people stay up late
Modern people have exciting lives. "Going to bed early" seems like a beautiful but unrealistic wish. Everyone knows that sleeping early is good for health. We all know that sleeping late will lead to fatigue and dark eye circles. But every night, there is always a reason for not going to bed! Are any of below your reason for staying up at night? Staying up late hurts the yin and the liver. Do not be a night owl anymore! And you will slowly see improved health and skin conditions.

．Habitual
How can a young person go to bed early? Many people start their wonderful day at 12am. Watching dramas, playing games, be on their phones, or doing nothing until 2 or 3am without even realizing it. Over time, you cannot fall asleep earlier even if you try to. 
✔Suggestion: start your bedtime routine early, such as bathing, brushing your teeth, applying mask, etc., and gradually go to bed earlier.

．Bedtime procrastination
“Night time, my time” and “Mama stays up late for freedom” may sound familiar. Too many people are busy working during the day, or taking care of others all day like a full-time mother. They can only have their own time at night. Although they are very tired, they still have to watch an episode of Korean drama or be on their phones for a bit. They do this to compensate themselves mentally.
✔Suggestion: It is ok to relax in the proper way. But you can make a to-do list before going to bed to control yourself. For example, you should go to bed immediately after beating a stage of a game.

．Stress
The working hours in Hong Kong is the one if the highest in the world, and the work pressure is high. During the day, you are always thinking and cannot relax at night. Some may even have to take work home. Excessive thinking can cause insomnia. Difficulty falling asleep, poor sleep and frequent dreams are signs of insomnia. It is really painful it you cannot fall asleep while you are sleepy.
✔Suggestion: do yoga before bed and meditate to calm the mind
✔Healing tea recommendation: Difficulty falling asleep
Effects: Calms the heart and mind. Relieves difficulty falling asleep due to over-thinking 
Ingredients: Fried Spine Date Seeds, biota seed, buckwheat

“An open letter to Eric Kwok, and for everyone re homophobia, discrimination and bullying”

Dear Eric,

Imagine this. You are one of the contestants on a TV talent show. You are sitting in a room with other hopefuls and one of the judges walks into the room and demanded this: “Raise your hand if you are not homophobic.”

I’m very sure you will raise your hand.

You don’t have to answer me whether or not you really are homophobic. But stay with the feeling inside your mind. How do you feel?

Your feelings are most likely the same as the feelings of your contestants when you walked into a room and asked them to raise their hands to declare their sexual orientation publicly. Because in this day and age, homophobia is just as “controversial” as homosexuality, if not more.

The reason why I’m writing this open letter to you is because after reading your apology, I want to take the opportunity to address to you, and everyone out there, the need for proper etiquette regarding LGBT issues, and to address the forms of micro-aggression, bullying and discrimination the LGBT community faces everyday especially in the workplace.

I’m taking this incident seriously because from my personal experience, this is not just a one-time slip-up for you.

I remember long time ago I was so looking forward to meeting and working with you because you are, after all, Eric Kwok the great songwriter.

You were very friendly when we talked privately. Then I started to notice how once there were audiences, media or other people around and when the cameras were turned on, you would start making insinuating and demeaning gay jokes about me and in front of me. Jokes and comments even my closest friends wouldn’t dare to make in public.

At first, I didn’t really pay too much attention. I just brushed it off as juvenile and trivial. In fact, I had been so used to these jokes since growing up that I learned not to react much.

However, as time progressed and we worked on more occasions, the same thing would happen repeatedly. The teasing and the stereotypical gay jokes continued and you would make sure that the spotlight would fall on me afterwards. The jokes no longer felt light. They felt hostile, even vindictive.

In fact, it felt like bullying.

One of these incidents was well documented in tabloids back then and you can still look it up yourself on the internet.

I came to the realization that it was not just a one-time thing. I don’t know if it’s intentional or unintentional but it’s definitely a habit and a pattern.

So many questions would be in my mind every time after working with you. Why does Eric do that every time? Is he picking on me? Does he hate me? Is he homophobic? Does he think homosexuality is something funny? Does he do this to other people too? Did I do something that pissed him off? I remember I was nothing but courteous. So why do I deserve this?

I had no answers for all of these questions. All I knew was I became fearful of working with you, dreading what words would fall out of your mouth to put me in an awkwardly embarassing position. But still I tried to give you the benefit of the doubt. You’re from California you shouldn’t be homophobic. I even defended you in my head by telling myself to loosen up.

But it’s not just you. Throughout my years in the entertainment industry, I have encountered and endured so many chauvinistic “tough guys” who like to use homosexuality as a laughing stock or source of bad comedy which were all discriminating and demeaning, yet not funny.

It’s not only me. I’m sure many people of the LGBT community face this everyday in their workplace. People around them would claim their intentions were harmless but we all knew deep down that these “jokes” have the power to put people someone in an embarrassing, inferior and even threatening positions.

We kept quiet and tolerated. Sometimes we even felt obligated to laugh along just so we couldn’t afford to look “petty” or “stiff”, especially in front of people of higher authority and stature.

So Eric I want to ask you.

Why have you been so obsessed with my sexuality all these years?

Why are you so fascinated by other people’s sexuality?

Why is being gay such a huge issue to you even to this day that you had to make it the first thing you asked your contestants?

Why you also had to specifically make a post on social media about that fact you questioned people about their sexuality?

Why do you take so much pride publicly in your ability to guess who are the gay contestants even when they weren’t ready to share that information?

And most of all why do you find all this to be so funny?

To begin with one’s sexual orientation is a very personal thing which others have no right to intrude, even in the entertainment industry where you are supposed to be fine with “controversy”.

This is for you and everyone out there: using your power and authority to demand someone to declare his or her sexual orientation, especially in a work environment, is ancient, barbaric and unacceptable.

Kicking someone out of the closet is just pure evil.

The fact you did what you did, especially with your stature and on broadcast TV, is not only wrong, but also you are telling the Hong Kong audience that it’s alright to continue this form of intrusion and micro aggression that the LGBT community wants to see gone.

You’re leading a very poor example by giving Hong Kong audience the impression that being gay is still a taboo.

How are your contestants, who are boys of young age, going to offer new perspectives to the Hong Kong audience under your guidance if you perpetuate stereotyping and demonstrate to them that being gay is still an issue?

I feel sorry for any contestants who are in fact gay sitting in that room that day too. They must have been traumatized seeing the way you forced your inquisition. The impression you left them with is that the entertainment industry is still a very unfriendly place for gays. Is that what you want them to think?

But most of all, it’s the attitude, tone and manner with which you shared about this incident on social media, giving people the impression that any matter regarding sexual orientation is still something shameful and laughable, which is on top of list the thing that the LGBT community fights hard everyday to change.

When you said in your apology you “have great respect for gay people, especially their hard fight for equality” I became baffled as what you did, in the past to me or in that room to the boys, is the exact thing that makes the LGBT community’s ongoing fight for equality so difficult.

Putting people down, perpetuate stereotypes, heckling and ridiculing yet making it look OK is anything but liberal and respectful, or Californian. I don’t see any “entertainment values” that are of good taste if they are made up at the expense of other people’s struggle.

If this incident happened in America, where you grew up, you would’ve gotten yourself in such hot waters that you probably can’t get out of.

I just want you and everyone out there to know that it’s not okay. And it never was. Never will be.

Being “as liberal as it gets” is great. Having gay friends is great too. Having dinner with your gay friends is absolutely fabulous! Playing all these cards to avoid being labelled as “homophobic” is very convenient. But having class, empathy, kindness and authentic respect is a completely different territory. These don’t come automatically with backgrounds.

At this point you don’t owe me an apology. I just hope that after this incident you can really start working and living with the essences of a truly liberal and creative individual. Inspire changes and end stereotypes. Start new trends and break old patterns. Embrace and not segregate. Do the work.

I had been away from Hong Kong and the industry for a few years now. It breaks me heart that I have to write this sort of open letter when it’s already 2018. I want to make this industry a safer, nicer and more accepting place to work in when I return. I want members of the LGBT community in Hong Kong, who have been so supportive of me and my music, to also have safer and nicer working environment in their respective lives.

I don’t mind coming off as an over-reacting petty bitch with no sense of humour if my message finally comes through and everyone, including you, “gets it”. I rather have no sense of humour than a bad one.

To all the contestants of the show. If anyone ever asks you if you are gay and you are not ready to discuss, it’s OK to stand up for yourself and say this: “It’s a rude question to begin with. You have no right to get an answer from me to begin with. And it doesn’t matter. It SHOULDN’T matter. It’s 2018. I hope one day I can use my craft to inspire the world and to make this become a non-issue.”

But if you are ready to be open, you have my complete support and love.

Let’s hope that through acceptance, learning and effort, one day there will no longer be any “controversial questions”. Wouldn’t we like that Eric?

Yours truly,
Pong
