The Power Of 3:40 AM- Brahma Muhurtam
Our ancient tradition has always emphasised upon the importance of waking up at Brahma Muhurta, and is assumed as the Creator's Hour. It is traditionally the last phase or muhurta of the night and is considered an auspicious time for all practices of yoga and most appropriate for meditation, worship or any other religious practice.
Each muhurta lasts 48 minutes, and therefore the Brahma muhurta begins 1 hour and 36 minutes before sunrise and ends 48 minutes before sunrise.
"brahmi muhurtam uttishthet swastho rakshartham ayusha:tatra sarvartha shantyartham smareccha madhusudanam."
The translation of the above mantra is as following: "One should wake up in the Brahma muhurta for sustaining perfect health and for achieving a long lifespan, as desired."
The following shloka by Sage Valmiki tells us as to how Sage Vishwamitra woke up Lord Rama at the hour of Brahmamuhurta.
"Kausalya Supraja Rama Poorva Sandhya Pravartate
Uthishta Narashardoola Karthavyam Daivamanhikam"
During Brahma Muhurta, the Abundantsatvik qualities in nature bring peace and freshness to the mind.
At this time, a high level of prana which is necessary for the body is adequately present in the atmosphere.
The activities of the entire world and especially of the living beings are yet to start, pollution is at its minimum. This cheerful atmosphere has a considerable effect on the body and mind according to our sages and saints.
Our ancestors have always told us that if we dedicate this time to wisdom, virtue and devotion, we shall gain longevity, good health, wealth, peace and contentment.
Studies proove that early risers generally have a lower BMI (body mass index) and consequently are less likely to suffer from obesity. According to the same study, the earlier you get up the less likely you are to develop diabetes, or suffer from depression or insomnia.
Benefits Of exercising during Brahma Muhurtam:

Exercises involve repetition of certain movements aimed at building a certain group of muscles, thereby increasing the muscle weight and improving strength of those body parts. It increases the blood supply to those parts.
Most exercises increase your breath rate and heart rate.
