Power of Shower-thoughts

Shower - The Random, wild, amazing ideas generator for most

Well atleast for me. I am one of those persons who think a lot during shower, who solve their problems in shower, who think on what to write today in shower, who cry during shower, who connect with universal energy during shower, who does Robot dancing during shower(not possible in real life at all haha).

So yes I believe in power of Shower and I take it twice everyday - Once in the beginning of day and another at the end.

As an example, My mother is sick now-a-days and I am really worried about her. When I try to pray for her during normal hours there is something that holds my connection with cosmic energy. But in shower, it works - I am able to express myself in a better way. Although the same sort of thing works during walks and running but it just that I cannot let my tears run out during a run because of which I end up holding myself. But in showers, I can feel weak, I can cry, then I can look at myself in the mirror and assure myself about everything is going to be ok. So shower is like a true companion for my soul. And while taking my shower at end of day - I am able to forgive myself for any mistakes I made and unhook from all the worldly responsibilities, sleep with a clear mind. If I don't take shower, I just cannot unhook. These two showers are like Food for me - A must have. If electricity goes out, I take shower with a torch. If water runs out, I take shower with least water possible. With my habit of a must have shower - I am able to manage all the odds of water, electricity and make sure I get my thing at the end of day.

Hmmmmm.

Interestingly I have heard that many people do have this connection with Shower. Also because it solves most of your problems and gives you amazing ideas.

I went onto google today to see what's the science behind this and this is what I found out:

Essentially, our brains give us our best ideas when:
--A lot of dopamine is released in our brains. Triggers like exercising, listening to music, and, yes, taking a warm shower, contribute to increased dopamine flow.
--We're relaxed. When we have a relaxed state of mind, we're more likely to turn attention inwards, able to make insightful connections. We've seen before how being drunk and sleepy are great for creativity.
--We're distracted. Distraction gives our brains a break so our subconscious can work on a problem more creatively. (This is similar to John Cleese's advice to let your ideas bake.)

Clearly the fact that we are relaxed during our showers is true. There is a gradual wave of relaxation that comes over which obviously results in better thoughts and better feelings.
