see dali48 and "Zen finds religion in the daily activities." (I-tuan), see Does Zen believe in a soul? - However, the Buddha taught that there are no such things as a permanent Self or Soul which can be reincarnated or reborn after death (Rahula, 1974: page 3). The Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh believes there is no reincarnation in Buddhism (Miller, 2012).
see What is a Zen spirit? - Zen is defined as a state of calm where actions are guided by intuition rather than by conscious effort. The term comes from the Japanese pronunciation of the Chinese word Chan – with roots to the Indian practice of thinking and meditating known as Dhyana.
see What is the psychology of Zen? - Zen is experiential, not didactic. Enlightenment relies heavily on intuition, metaphor, and poetry. The master can point in the general direction toward wisdom, but each person must find their own personal path.19.03.2022
see Is Zen ok for Christians? - Because they are not on the same plane, Zen and Christianity do not conflict. Graham in his book, Zen Catholicism also points out that there is no harm in applying Zen insights into Catholicism.
see Does Zen believe in afterlife? - In Zen, Life and Death are one, a continuum, and they are not separated and there is no dividing line between them (as, indeed, there is actually no dividing line between anything, there only seems to be – divisions are arbitrary and made to enable us to function in the finite world, what Zen calls 'the world of form') ...10.03.2014
see How does Zen affect life? - Zen meditation reduces stress and anxiety by promoting relaxation and deep-breathing techniques. It helps people to manage their emotions, gain clarity of mind and experience deep peace and emotional well-being. The practice halts constant intrusive thoughts.09.05.2024
see What makes a person Zen? - They don't let stress, anger, or frustration get the better of them. According to the Cambridge Dictionary, the word “zen” refers to a person's ability to remain calm and relaxed in the face of difficulties and not worry about things out of their control.27.02.2021
see Is Zen good for Mental Health? - Meditation and mindfulness practices like Zen Therapy have also been shown to have a variety of other positive effects, both mentally and physically, such as promoting feelings of calmness, improving sleep and immune function, reducing feelings of stress and increasing self-awareness.09.11.2022
Let go of something you like, and realize how fleeting it is by living without it... (Ayya Khema) 
What is the Buddhist quote about pain? - A quote usually attributed to Buddha says, “Pain is inevitable but suffering is optional.” What a profound statement! There is no suffering if you can let go. Pain becomes immaterial in the absence of suffering.29.01.2012
Buddha realized that all living beings suffer because they desire and cling ... - Peace is an inner attitude to life that consists of letting go and renunciation (see e.g. nuns & monks etc. - d.48) ... (Buddha) 
Das Leben im Daseinskreislauf ist leidvoll: Geburt ist Leiden, Altern ist Leiden, Krankheit ist Leiden, Tod ist Leiden; Kummer, Lamentieren, Schmerz und Verzweiflung sind Leiden." (Buddha)

The peak of melatonin secretion in humans typically occurs between 2 and 4 in the morning. Melatonin is a hormone produced by the pineal gland that helps regulate sleep-wake cycles, with its production increasing at night and decreasing during the day. Here's a more detailed explanation: Melatonin's Role: Melatonin acts as a signal to the body, indicating that it's nighttime and preparing the body for sleep. Diurnal Variation: Melatonin secretion has a distinct circadian rhythm. Its production increases with the onset of darkness, peaks in the middle of the night (between 2 and 4 am), and then gradually decreases as the night progresses. Factors Affecting Melatonin: Melatonin synthesis is enhanced by darkness and inhibited by light. Light exposure, especially during the evening and nighttime, can suppress melatonin production and disrupt sleep patterns. Individual Variation: While the 2-4 am peak is a general trend, individual variations exist in melatonin levels, influenced by factors like age, light exposure, and sleep habits. Clinical Significance: Understanding melatonin's role and its typical rhythm is important for addressing sleep disorders and other health conditions related to circadian rhythm disruptions.

Pineal gland | healthdirect Yes, that's correct. Melatonin is a hormone primarily produced and secreted by the pineal gland. The pineal gland, a small, endocrine gland located in the brain, acts as a biological clock, producing melatonin in response to darkness to regulate the sleep-wake cycle and other circadian rhythms.
What are the side effects of taking melatonin? - Melatonin is relatively nontoxic, although some mild adverse effects have been reported with higher doses and extended-release formulations, including [35][36] drowsiness, daytime sedation, nausea, and headaches. No evidence suggests that patients develop tolerance to melatonin.09.02.2024
What foods contain melatonin? - Melatonin is a hormone that regulates our sleep-wake cycle. Milk, nuts, cherries, fish, rice, goji berries, and oats contain melatonin. Avoid spicy food, chocolate, tomatoes, pizza, and citrus fruits before bed.25.01.2024

Baldrian, Melisse, und Hopfen werden oft in Kombination als pflanzliche Beruhigungsmittel verwendet. Baldrian (Valeriana officinalis) ist bekannt für seine beruhigende und schlaffördernde Wirkung, während Melisse (Melissa officinalis) eine entspannende und angstlösende Wirkung haben kann. Hopfen (Humulus lupulus) wird ebenfalls eine schlaffördernde Wirkung zugeschrieben, die auf eine ähnliche Weise wie Melatonin wirken kann. 
Zusammenfassung:
Baldrian: Beruhigend, schlaffördernd.
Melisse: Entspannend, angstlösend.
Hopfen: Schlaffördernd, ähnliche Wirkung wie Melatonin. 
Weitere Informationen:
Kombinationspräparate mit diesen drei Pflanzen sind häufig erhältlich und werden oft zur Behandlung von Unruhe, Nervosität und Schlafstörungen eingesetzt. 
Die Kombination der Pflanzen kann sich in ihrer Wirkung ergänzen, wobei Hopfen und Baldrian besonders gut zusammenpassen, da Hopfenbestandteile an den Melatonin-Rezeptoren binden und so schlaffördernd wirken. 
Es ist wichtig, die Anwendungshinweise zu beachten und bei Unsicherheiten einen Arzt oder Apotheker zu konsultieren.
