Recent research on lucid dreams suggests that consciousness exists along a spectrum between sleep & waking, between hallucination & revelation, between dreams & reality, Claire Evans writes. #dreams #luciddreaming #consciousness

Lucid dreaming is a unique and fascinating phenomenon in which the dreamer becomes consciously aware that they are dreaming while still immersed in the dream world. In a lucid dream, the dreamer is not merely a passive observer but an active participant who can exercise varying degrees of control over the dream’s narrative, setting, and actions. This state of heightened self-awareness within the dream offers a profound and empowering experience for those who can achieve it. Curious about lucid dreaming?

Last week I had my head in the clouds, seeing all sorts of things. This week it seems I have my head in my dreams. My nights seem to be all about dreams and my sleep patterns are now to be awake at 3 am, and then start dreaming in stages, on and off sleeping and then dreaming again. Interestingly I am also having some waking dreams, that’s how I used to call them and have since discovered they are called lucid dreams, a well known phenomenon where we enter a state of being where we are aware that we are dreaming whilst still watching the dream as a bystander, and if lucky we are also able to control the way the dream goes. A very interesting experience indeed, not scary, just strange and quite compelling. Lucid dreams are supposed to be happening during the REM (rapid eye movement) cycle of sleep and the last time this happened to me I dreamt sequences of a whole story, which was so interesting and scary at equal measure that I could not help but watch. Needless to say I have written it all down and this is soon be turned into a book; more about that at a later date. However, what I was dreaming last night felt like different characters were being introduced, telling me some parts of their story, so I am wondering if subconsciously I am planning another book. What do you think? Do you love and pay attention to your dreams or do prefer to benefit from an uninterrupted sleep? Please feel free to share your experience with sleep and dreams. #luciddreaming #REMsleep #sleepdisorders #shareyourstory #writinginspiration

What are dreams? Dreams are a series of images, emotions, and sensations that occur in the mind during sleep. They can be vivid and lifelike, or abstract and surreal. Dreams can range from pleasant and peaceful experiences to unsettling or even frightening scenarios.

🥱 Sleep and dreams 🟠 During REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, a fascinating phenomenon occurs: the brain springs to life, almost matching the activity levels of wakefulness. 🟠 This phase is prime time for dreams, rich tapestries woven from a mosaic of emotions, memories, and sensations. 🟠 As if choreographed, the brain's regions sync to create vivid, often surreal experiences, blending reality with imagination. 🟠 Emotional depth, fragmented memories, and inexplicable scenarios intertwine, painting the subconscious canvas. 🟠 This heightened activity suggests that dreams aren't merely random firings; they reflect the brain's intricate workings, processing experiences and emotions, unveiling a captivating nocturnal realm where the mind unravels its mysteries. 🌐 Visit: symbiosishospital.com ↩️ WhatsApp: +91-8591755648 ☎️ Call: +91-8104896381 ✉️ Email: symbiosisspecialityclinics@gmail.com #remsleep #sleepanddreams #rapideyemovement #emotional

I've learned through experience that sleep isn't something you can force. It happens when your body is ready. The best approach is to simply relax and allow sleep to come naturally. This idea, though it's a broad stroke, can apply to other life goals as well. Obsessing over a desired outcome, especially to the point where it causes stress, can paradoxically become an obstacle to achieving that goal. The better strategy is to shift focus away from obsessing over the end result and instead concentrate on the journey. Do your part well and then let fate handle the rest. One of the toughest lessons in life is learning to let go of things beyond your control.🙏

Understanding the concept of **vibration** and its impact on our lives can indeed lead to greater peace and bliss. **What Is Vibration?** Vibration, from a spiritual perspective, refers to the **quality of energy** we experience. Imagine it as the **state of consciousness**, ranging from heavenly to hellish. Here's a breakdown without the spiritual jargon: 1. **Energy Basics**: Everything is made of energy, and its vibration determines its expression. Emotions, attitudes, beliefs—all forms of energy. 2. **Spectrum**: Vibration spans a spectrum: - **Low Vibration**: Dense, causing suffering. - **High Vibration**: Light, leading to happiness. 3. **Our Plane**: Our existence lies in the middle—both dense (suffering) and light (happiness). ## **High Vibrational Energy** High-vibrational energy creates positive experiences. It's pure, like white light. Think of angelic qualities, enlightenment, beauty, and love. When we resonate with this energy, life becomes more peaceful and blissful ¹. Remember, understanding our own vibration and that of others allows us to navigate life with greater compassion and empathy. 🌟✨ #Vibrational Wellness #PositiveEnergy #Empathy Matters #Mindfulness Journey #Peaceful Living Feel free to share your insights 😊👍

Thinking Too Much The biggest disease of the mind is over-thinking, especially too much thinking about others: What they did, what they should do, what they should have done, what they said, what you wished they had said, why they spoke at all. All of these rob the mind of its inherent serenity. Thinking too much is like eating too much. The heaviness makes it impossible to remain light and flexible. We get stuck on little things and gradually the little things become huge things which we cannot shake off. Often when we think too much we fantasise and overreact. Thus we create negative feelings. To ease the burden of over-thinking, try grounding yourself in the present moment through meditation/mindfulness. A simple practice of pausing, taking a deep breath, and observing your surroundings can help break the cycle of excessive thoughts. Remember, the key to mental serenity lies in steering your attention away from the whirlpool of ‘what ifs’ and focusing on the ‘what is.’
