PROGRAM: BIORYTHM
THE BIORYTHM THEORY POSTULATES THAT THERE ARE CERTAIN
METABOLIC RHYTHMS THAT HAVE A CONSTANT CYCLE TIME IN THE HUMAN
BODY, AND ARE KNOWN AS INNER CLOCKS.
TWO PHYSICIANS, ONE A CONTEMPORARY OF FREUD, CONCURRENTLY
DESCRIBED A 23-DAY CYCLE THAT CORRELATED WITH PHYSICAL
VITALITY, ENDURANCE, AND ENERGY; AND A 28-DAY CYCLE THAT
CORRESPONDS TO SENSITIVITY, INTUITION, AND CHEERFULNESS. A
THIRD CYCLE WAS OBSERVED BY A PROFESSER AND OTHERS IN THE
1920'S AND 1930'S, AND IS A 33-DAY COGNITIVE OR INTELLECTUAL
CYCLE THAT RELATES TO MENTAL ALERTNESS AND JUDGEMENT.
ALL THREE CYCLES START UP FROM BIRTH OR THE BEGINNING OF
INDEPENDENT LIFE.
THE DAYS ON WHICH THE MEDIAN (0) LINE IS CROSSED ARE
CALLED CRITICAL DAYS, ESPECIALLY FOR THE PHYSICAL AND SEN-
SITIVITY CYCLES AND ARE WHEN ACCIDENTS ARE THE MOST LIKELY
TO OCCUR. THE HIGH (+) PERIODS IN THE VARIOUS CYCLES ARE THE
TIMES WHEN YOU SHOULD HAVE THE MOST ENERGY, BE MOST CHEERFUL,
OUTGOING AND MENTALLY ALERT. THE LOW (-) TIMES ARE REGARDED
AS RECUPERITIVE PERIODS.
ALTHOUGH ALL CYCLES ARE SAID TO START FROM ZERO AT THE
TIME OF BIRTH, BIORHYTHM HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ASTROLOGY.
