осознанные сновидения определяются как сны, в которых человек осознаёт, что спит, и при этом продолжает видеть сон. Прошло 11 лет с момента публикации предыдущего обзора эффективности методов индукции осознанных сновидений, поэтому настоящее исследование было направлено на обзор публикаций за последние 11 лет. Вторая цель состояла в повышении методологического качества исследований, включённых...

Smart home systems facilitate humans’ domestic environments and enhance their quality of life. Voice control of devices is usually available right after one awakens in the morning. In this study, we tested a way to operate smart home technologies even before awakening with the help of electromyographical (EMG) signals from dreams. A software program was tuned to translate and digitally vocalize...

Lucid dreams occur when the subject is aware that they're dreaming while still asleep. It is a state of REM sleep, typically characterized by heightened activity in the frontoparietal region in the brain (associated with self-reflection and memory) comparable to during wakefulness. Growing attention, particularly in neuroscience, has been recently paid to this topic because of its links to the...

AbstractRecently, the construct ‘lucid dreamless sleep’ has been proposed to explain the state of ‘clear light’ described by Tibetan Buddhist traditions, a special state of consciousness during deep sleep in which we’re told to be able to recognise the nature or essence of our mind (Padmasambhava & Gyatrul 2008; Ponlop 2006; Wangyal 1998). To explain the sort of awareness experienced during...

Dream enthusiasts and researchers are drawn to lucid dreaming, a unique state of awareness in which the dreamer is aware that he is dreaming and has influence over the dream world. A thorough examination of the state of dream research today is given in this review article, which covers a wide range of topics including the neurological underpinnings of the phenomena, induction techniques,...

A classic set of eight similes of illusion (sgyu ma’i dpe brgyad) are employed recurrently throughout Indian and Tibetan Buddhist literature to illustrate the operations of cognition, its correlative perceptions, and experiences that emerge. To illustrate a Buddhist psychology of metaphor, the fourteenth century Tibetan scholar and synthesizer of the Dzogchen (rdzogs chen) or Great Perfection...

Lay down and almost immediately snapped into the Basal Clarity. [#3058]The lucidity was so shocking that I had the experience of falling out of the dream, down into a space that was a vast, limitless, empty void but also filled completely with pure awareness.[#105]

Purpose: The research is aimed at studying the potential for dream synchronization, including lucid dreams, among a group of participants using the concepts of "memes" and "tag-memes" within the framework of the "Banchenko Algorithm" and the "Mnemonic Dream Synchronization Technique of Banchenko." Additionally, it aims to assess the effectiveness of a new artificial intelligence model built and...

Objective. In lucid dreams (LDs), it is possible to maintain consciousness and achieve predetermined goals while in REM sleep. Since the 1980s, scientists have been searching for LD application areas. The current study is the first to demonstrate a method for controlling a car avatar with feedback from LDs. Support for this possibility could be used for personal applications and LD studies....

Introduction: Salivary alpha-amylase (sAA) is considered a marker of autonomic nervous system activity in stress research, and atypical waking sAA responses have been reported for traumatized individuals. Lucid dreams, characterized by a dreamer's awareness of their dream state while remaining asleep, have shown promising preliminary evidence of their potential to enhance mental health. This...
