 The fascinating theory of Biorythms can help us
 explain why some days of our lives are extremely
 good and some others dissapointingly bad.
 
 We all have lived through days when we can't do
 anything right,days during which we feel irritable
 ,sad,incapable to concentrate,inexplicably tired
 or sick.On the other hand,there are "golden" days
 when everything works out for the best and we feel
 happy,energetic,strong and intellectual.

 So,which is the difference between the "good" and
 "bad" days? Ofcourse,there are several factors that
 can affect our mood. A theory that gains more and
 more supporters every day,is based on the study
 of Biorythms.There are several types of biologic
 cycles or rythms.The 3 most important are the
 physical ,with an interval of 23,the emotional 
 which lasts 28 days and the intellectual that
 repeats every 33 days.In a mathematical graph,these
 3 cycles look like semitonial curves.Each cycle
 begins when one is born and restarts after 23,28
 and 33 days respectively,for the rest of his life.
 
 When the curve is higher than the horizontal line,
 then  the biorythm is "high" ,with a surplus of 
 energy. So,the days when we have a high physical 
 biorythm,we feel energetic,strong,full of life.When 
 we have a high emotional biorythm we tend to be very 
 creative  skillful and good tempered.Finally,during 
 days of a high intellectual biorythm ,we are capable 
 of thinking quickly and effectively and solving 
 complex problems.

 When the curve is below the horizontal line,our
 biorythm is "low" and it's in a period of 
 restoration.Physicaly,we tend to grow tired very 
 easily,loiter and sucumb easier to illnesses.
 Emotionally,we feel moody,irritable and 
 melancholic.Mentally ,we have a difficult time 
 concentrating or remembering things and our 
 judgement is rather poor.

 Attention! Our biorythms can't forecast our future
 or anything like that :) They just show us what
 our tendencies are at specific time periods.If we
 are aware of these tendencies,we may be able to 
 overcome them with our vigilance and power of will.
