Dr Rahul Jandial | The New Neuroscience of Sleep and Dreams

This is just fascinating...........

The relation of awake and asleep is best described by an in 3D oszilating tesseract. 😊 and that i have learned in a dream 😅

Ive slept walk all my life .. doctor said to my mother it would slowly slow down as I get older no still the same ...

The mouth smacking is so distracting. Drink some water

I’m may this year , I had 3 dreams within 14 days that my husband died. On May 29 while he was out of state on a month long work trip , he was found dead in his hotel room.
I had told him days before about these dreams .. as I’ve had dreams before that came to fruition. He simply said “you’re so silly”
Here I am now grieving the loss of my husband.

Such a fascinating subject. Thank you for your research.

My question is why not a test is performed in people's hi or low night mares?

I have had dreams of the future, so I disagree with your comment you can't.

I had a sleep paralysis once when I was in early elementary. I remember waking up and felt the blanket weight on me and unable to move at all. Weird thing was that I was so tired that I self calmed (I’m impressed with my younger self) and went back to sleep and it had never happened again. I was grateful looking back that I wasn’t too scared.

Gran sabiduría y maestría en su conferencia , dormimos porque necesitamos soñar.Una maravilla y excelente información

Still don't know what's going on in neuroscience....

Although still in its incipient wisdom (knowledge + experience), thank you for heeding your mission in using science to help people gradually understand the universal wisdom that is inherent in all of us. Theorem #1 is only half of the inherent truth since science still could not measure nor "see" the aspect of soul.

Just wait until the advertising starts direct to dream advertising

There is a State of pure awareness devoid of all dreaming. Even in dreams there is a person who is attentive of dreams. Else he will not remember the dreams the next day. That attention is aware of even the body that is sleeping and snoring. When such a State of being comes into being then dreams lose all importance. Dreaming is not necessary. If someone is interested, comment me to know more.

Fantastic

If he simply stated that he explains the mechanics of the brain and dreaming, it would be fine. But he is claiming way more than that, and it's unethical and unscientific. Most people (see comments) don't care about the mechanics, they want to know why they dream up wird stuff and what it means. He is as clueless on that as any average person.

Reasons not read his book:
1. His unsatisfactory answers to the audience's questions, talking but not answering, means the audience expectations don't match his knowledge.
2. His claim (in this talk) of scientific proof that "dreams come from our brains," where all he proved was a memory of a certain dream manifests itself when a certain part of the brain is artificialy stimulated.
3. His dismissal of psychedelic experience and creatures as just an adrenaline gland waking up before the nerves in the muscles. Few care about adrenaline, most want to know where the scary creature that you never saw before came from and how to get rid of it?
4. His misunderstanding and misuse of Picasso's artwork. Picasso was not off, he was portraying something different, not part of sleep. Throwing in Picasso's picture in the lecture, doesn't make you look smarter, just shows you don't get Picasso.
5. He claims to explain the lurking intruder, where again, all he explained was only which part of the brain when artificialy stimulated is responsible for sense of the lurking intruder. It doesn't explain why and how it happens naturally, without brain his surgery.

By damping the neocortex the brain restricts signals to the body, by damping the logic the brain can chaotically explore the solution space to the memories of the day?

Intense dreams...wake up exhausted

I've always seen dreaming as the brains times to organize and manage memory and... Dreams can sometimes be like ... Thoughts going up on the big screen of of our mind and we sometimes hit a state where we see them. Like, there is someone sitting at the controls and pulling up old memories and fellings as if they are checking to make sure where to file away things. As if they are making sure it's the right area and making associations. This is why old memories may come back in a dream
There is also an emotional piece. As if the controller filing away at night has to kind of battle with the system when a cabinet is opened and files flood out.
I went through a period of dreams for maybe years, where I could never find my vehicle. It was either stolen or I couldn't remember where I left it. I would also have problems traveling from point A to point B. So, I would be drifting in a place I knew well but then things suddenly changed. The roads were blocked or familiar areas suddenly changed. the last one in this period was ..freeway overpassed or bridged that were very high or very steep and terrifying.
These three dream types were constant for years. They are gone now as far as I know. I suspect they were there because I wasn't sure what the path of my life was. I wasn't sure where it was heading and if the path I was on was the right one. So, any time the controller was organizing a similar thought and opened the cabinet... The cabinet kind of takes control of the big screen for a while. Perhaps the subconscious was screaming at my conscience to change my path. Or, maybe just to come to terms with my path, which I think is what actually ultimately happened.
The brain is very busy throughout the day and has to work very hard during our awake hours. In suspect at night when we sleep, it's just trying to catch up.

When I was 11-12 I had several episodes of having to Act out my dreams... Some were -Stopping a robbery, collecting every nickel coin in town, stopping a shooting & being in labor.
My mom knew about them cus the first one was getting everyone out of the burning house fire, including the upstairs neighbors. After that she checked on me a lot more during the night. Put locks on the windows and multiple house door locks. Sometimes she'd help with whatever it was I had to accomplish in the dream. Then one night one was coming on., I Told it NO, your Not taking over my body & I refused to participate & that was the last one.

I solved and/or debugged many coding issues during sleep.

Can someone help.

This makes some sense. From my own experience and exploration:

What you think of as your consciousness is a cacophony of choices produced by your subconscious that then your "conscious" self chooses one among many.

Example: "I would like to say this sentence". To even produce that simple piece took considerable computation--and I honestly stopped mid-sentence to re-think (lol).

Anyway, the way you fall asleep is to release this executive function--you just let the cacophony take over and you'll fall asleep (or you'll realized you've fallen asleep).

Most likely, when you sleep, you sub-consciously run through every scenario you've ever been through then extrapolate to wild ends.

There must be some physical process that's going on that links dreams to memory. We know that if you don't sleep, you have memory problems, so it's clear that sleep (and thus dreams) are crucial to memory development.

How do u explain a Deja wu?

I have Narcolepsy here, and cataplexy is such a pain!! But my sleep paralysis doesn't come with lurking intruder, I just can't move for a little while. But my dreams, oh my! They are insane!

Thanks for your time and support GOD Bless you always 🙏🌍💜💜💜

It looks like a little tree 🌴 or broccoli 🥦 thanks for sharing this program

I have psychic dreams

I hardly dream and if I do, I hardly remember anything 😪

You say the brain generates energy. Energy can connect outside the brain. There are DNA genetic memories, too. There’s so much detail in an electric readout we can’t read yet. I learned 7 languages. Electricity is a language. While some dreams may be current worries, others are based on trauma plus imagination plus positive energy. The brain is connected to electricity inside and outside the brain.

What about dreams when people you've never met / know end up in your dreams? Also I dream often. I can have 2-3/4 dreams within a nap and/ or sleep?

There is so much more to sleep paralysis than this doctor is attempting to explain. He seems to be guessing or rather giving educated guesses than being for certain. I've experienced sleep paralysis for many years of my life and it started at the young age of 12yrs old and carried on into my adult life. I would literally toy ans experiment with the episodes due to it happening so damn much, but being terrified is an understatement!!! From my experience, this is most definitely a demonic entity that attracts many people apparently. If this is happening to you, I suggest you pray and pray and continue to pray more!!! Although from my experience, the more I prayed the more frequent it happened, and the nights I choose not to pray due to being so terrified, this would simply go away. With that being said, it was obvious this was a demonic encounter. But I continued on with prayer due to my faith, and eventually it left. But to this day, this only occurs when I pray, not every time, but it's a more than likely to occurs rather than not on the nights I pray. God bless you whom ever is currently experiencing this.

I have just about full control of myself in my dreams, I make decisions and actions in the world that is created. Sometimes I have the same dream but make different choices. I can also induce particular dreams of my choice.

I started to have realistic nightmares when i was on a low dose of antidepressant. A serpent came at my face and Spiders in my bed. I jumped up onto the bed during sleep trying to kill the spider and realised i hadn't felt myself jump onto the bed it was like i just instantly got there. I jumped out of bed one time and i felt i was weightless the same as when i fell out of bed. I hit the floor hard but felt no pain. After a while i started to worry about what was going to happen that night. I finely worked it out that i need to increase my antidepressant . So is it bec of low serotonin is this what caused the nightmares. Were they just hallucination's ?

What about out of body and you dont have to be dead to experience it.

Actually i dnt hv any night mares so far but had one or two 'day mares' while slpg during day time😂..
paralysis kind of thing..

I had a car accident ( head injury) 20 years ago. How my brain has changed Haunts me every day.
But the most intriguing thing that happens with my brain is when I close my eyes … I actually see things 😮
Its like an instant dream but its in the middle of the day Im
actually wide awake .

I don’t even need to be asleep where its classed as a dream. It happens when I just close my eyes.

The details, the images the detail are like watching a movie on tv. It’s incredible and amazing but bloody scary.

I got hit on the right front side of my brain.

None of this makes sense.

I survive on a few hours sleep a night which I believe is normal if you have a head injury.

I have had lucid dreams as long as I can remember and thought it was something everyone did, but after watching the slides with the parts of the brain affected it made me wonder, could there be a link to lucid dreaming and people diagnosed with ADHD as I was only 7 years ago. Is there a connection with dementia and ADHD? As I hit menopause (I am 53) there seems to be a lot of changes going on in my brain and my memory is only getting worse to a point of forgetting what I’m talking about mid sentence or closing one app to open another, I will completely forget what I was doing. I am in need of help with this combined with lots of trauma but no one is really listening to me.

There's no use in analyzing my dreams because petty insecure assholes have invaded my mind.

Color TV didn't add to our amount of seen colors

Sometimes I get between a state of being awake/falling asleep and when I can’t move my body it scared the shit out of me.

I either loose teeth in my dreams or see big planes falling from the sky in front of me.

When I was 11, I dreamed I saw a car wreck in the mountains and the driver was beheaded and I had never seen or knowingly heard what that would look like. Years later, while working in EMS, I saw a simular real like scene. My brain had dreamed accurately... how much blood, how the body and head looked. How did my brain dream about something so accurate with no previous experience?

I can dream, wake up, go back to the dream and pick up where I left off, whether I want to or not.
I also have timed my naps and set the alarm for 15 min and still dream. So for me, I can lucid dream as fast as within 10 min after i fall asleep.
I was born premature which I believe caused my circadian rhythm to be awake from about 6pm-5am. My mom believes it as well.
I dream so vivid that I wake up sore and exhausted. My hands hurt and muscles are sore because I fight battles often in my dreams and wake up exhausted. I am hyper - analytic awake.
It affects the quality of my life in a negative way. I've suffered with lucid dreaming my entire life. It feels like a curse or I've got something very wrong with my brain. I used to dread going to sleep and tried to fight it. Now i just accept its going to happen...always has, always will. It's my burden to bear, I suppose. Everyone has a story.
