“Are we made of the same material as dreams and our little life ends up sleeping?William Shakespeare
Research on dreams around the world is fascinating and intriguing, we all know that sleep is a biological need of the human being, it helps us organize memories, information, etc. sophisticated computer that can exist.
While our body rests, it regains strength
Are our dreams, these complex pieces of unexplained stories, almost always a reflection of our concerns and anxieties, of our desires?Night is almost always a world in which we fall into a dimension that we do not quite understand. So why not learn more about her?
You probably have a family member or friend who always surprises you by telling you your dreams, how come they remember him so vividly?There is a simple explanation: several studies like the one recently published in the journal ‘Neuropsychopharmacology’ tell us that about 40% of the population can remember their dreams due to a different activity in their brain.
Their sleep cycles are shorter and usually wake up after completing the REM phase, where dreams usually occur, that is, they usually return to consciousness after a nightmare or sleep, which facilitates memory. sleep, from going to bed to waking up, you probably don’t remember your dreams.
Sleep is essential to rest. The most curious thing is undoubtedly the one that explains a study from the University of California: while we are in REM sleep, our brain undergoes chemical changes, the level of norepinephrine is reduced, as is the feeling of stress and emotional pain. one way for the brain to face the most painful experiences is as if it’s going through a filter, accompanied by a small dose of anesthetic.
It’s amazing to think there may be a way to control dreams, but it’s not magic. They are called lucid dreams, conscious dreams that occur when we realize that we are dreaming. This certainly happened to you at some point. We are almost about to wake up, but we are not doing it at all, we realize that we are immersed in a state of semi-wake where, suddenly, we can take the direction and control of this vast world of dreams.
This occurs mainly at the end of a cycle; a dream ends and somehow we tell ourselves that what happened was not real, you feel like you are about to wake up, but you do not open your eyes, we do not wake up consciously, we simply sustain the children of the dream and move them at will. But do we have to pay attention to what we want?If you want, for example, to have an erotic encounter with your favorite actress/actor, the excitement will eventually awaken you.
Until recently we thought that when we fell into the world of dreams we completely disconnected from reality, but it seems not so ?, a study from the University of Dresden, Germany, tells us that the smell of the piece determines the content of our dreams.
The experiments conducted to reach this conclusion were really curious: they used everything from rotten eggs to garbage and suggestive aromas such as cinnamon or roses. Results? Fascinante. La bad smell caused nightmares and anxious dreams – the most pleasant dreams were, of course, in cases where the pleasant aroma of a flower or essence involved the poor subjects of the experience.
Interestingly, it was discovered that the smell of roses improved memory and evoked the best dreams.
