Dreams influence our intelligence?

The ancient Greek philosopher Plato (428-427 BC — 348-347 BC) thought that dreams
originate in the organs located in the abdomen, for example, in the liver

"Lucid dream, in short, is a condition in which a person sleeps, dreams and realizes that he's asleep." But how this ability is related to intelligence? Popularizer of science sunely_tales based
amazing experiments with MRI, explains how you can become a little smarter.
How to become smarter? This question arises quite often. Modern research, in General, is relentless — IQ remains constant, but how can you do this?

The head of dark subject and research subject. Anyway, that was before the advent of MRI. Today we can look inside, but seen only asks more questions. Phenomenologically it remains only to divide people and try to find corresponding differences in their brains.

Let's turn to this fashionable phenomenon of lucid dreams. Lucid dream, in short, is a condition in which a person sleeps, dreams and realizes that he sleeps and dreams. For a long time this area was outside the field of science, until, finally, Stephen Laberge convincingly showed their presence and the possibility of the experiment.

Today it is believed that lucid dreams are dreams for everybody, just most of us happily forget about them. However, it is possible to practice and increase the frequency of their occurrence. Why? The reasons may be different — communication with the deceased, a new experience, training, flying, finally. However, here the list goes on and on, from lucid dreaming is a direct benefit.

People who often see lucid dreams, it is better to allow difficulties. At least in the tests. A very simple experiment: you are given three words and you need to find another word to form a new word with each of the first three (for example, ’sand’, ’mile’ and ’age’, and the word key will be ’stone’). In Russian, this task looks a bit weird, to me it is familiar, for example, sets of letters — try to find one that will create words with the following sets: the SAME LE, IU, KO.

So, if you see lucid dreams more often, that will solve 25% more of these puzzles. Does this intellectual superiority? Partly Yes. Thinking is difficult and multifaceted, and the solution of such problems requires a look at the problem from a different angle.

But why is this happening? How is self-awareness in dreams and challenges? Recent experiments with MRI shed light on this question. It turns out that there is at least one area of the brain that works from experienced dreamers better. Oddly enough, this is the area the prefrontal cortex, responsible for the reflection, and, consequently, for our development.

You can build a lot of guesswork about what is primary and what is secondary. The researchers plan to confirm their guesses by scanning the regular people who study lucid dreams. Many people believe that sleep is a waste of time, although it is not so. However, you may be interested in the opportunity to train yourself and sleep at the same time.

Dream_20140718_Сон, the Castle and the cunning old man
Black earth, black sky, a rare gray-silver moonlight sometimes visible stripes and spots, but is drowning in blackness. Type night. Paved streets, almost no people, who are look like shadows. Some loitering, vegetation silhouettes. A very old building where something happened to someone who lived in one of the rooms. It's a lot of people are trying to find, and come to the place of life groups, doing searches and removed. In the room old furniture all scattered. Silver very dim light is visible through a long Gothic window, sometimes there are small ornate grille. The room is long-running, upside down, apparently looking for and not find. Although the house life is a glimmer, but sluggish. Residents are not seen or they are timid.

Our group, the next in the chain of others, explores the room. Looking for what is not very clear. It is believed that he has, and it was gold, no GOLD or gold, can - GOLD. Which is hidden somewhere or how something was made. No drawings, no instructions, poor pictures without explanation. Gold is something very mean to all those coming, Ludi or not, is not visible, looks like scales and glitter, sparkle, Shine in this grey-silver black. Perhaps somewhere there must be a warehouse or a cache, and the production.

On one of the sheets there are a few pictures: some of the baths, the figure of the people, it is people, pipes. Reminiscent of the work of water supply or Sewerage, but strange. It is possible to consider in detail. It turns out that this is the gold product of sewage processing, and settle down in the Bayou somewhere in the lap of pipes, there are a few marks. Slightly hard to believe that so simple and so far no one has found. One that does not distract from the rest, quietly removed, walking around the house, more like a reduced and simplified lock.

We find a suitable place turned out to be a place for the toilet shared on this house, made a bath with a hole, but shallow. Brown liquid fills in the hole, but a place for the "feet", but any major is. Standing in indecision, because the hole is quite small. Marking time until you notice the wall 3 (!) item – stick of rectangular cross section, such a low pole. Long rod, ribbed, like a rod, and a small round stick with a plunger. But why 3?

Select "armaturinami" and are trying to push, there is deep – it goes back almost entirely. Trying to find the items on the bottom, and discover that one side got something. But why under banal latrine, a tank of THIS?! This Lope all that much on the neck! Say abandoned, usually drained as most can't leave until then will resolve itself.

Looking for a drain or the approach to the tank, go around a building, is unclear. Looking to plan a house like a small. And this tank from the bottom. Still we find in the wall in the same room with the cistern secret bricks, trying to turn, pull, pull. He gives in, reaching for him, thick cable that goes to the wall. Davim stronger drag. Outside Creek. Go – thick cable, as the cable ripped from the wall, smashed the wall, pieces of brick fell, apparently it was closed by masonry. Below the door, and forged the rivets of the old sample with the strips of overlay material, is in the tank, but the break no one is going, and then, as arguing that content!

Leave them. Study plan, go around the room with 'EN Suite' and a hole. Long think well, why are these 3 items at the wall, because the owner of it all, why it is all done! Notice the gap in the masonry, the glare of the moon and so on a dim light, in a span of brickwork gives a picture of the street with the moonlight dim shadows. A closer look, it appears that this passage below. While the rest of us don't see, trying to get it down, it fails, under a little house is a huge room with exits in some rooms. The rooms resemble a vast gallery, lined with tomes, or just the passages which look like bridges across the abyss, where the distance is the door, or have destroyed bridges over the same abyss.

In one of them and find the little owner of the room up there. We have nowhere to hurry, he's quite good-natured, via a rather narrow and high Windows in the style of middle ages makes the way unclear, the light dim of the moon. In principle, visible to the same street box, the shadows that dart about, although it is unclear how it is, after all, a house stood directly on the surface! However, the view outside the window by itself, and we're on our own.

The room is quite medieval, though tall ceilings, closets, eat tomes, and even arches. The old man, as befits a host, polite, more like a portrait of the astrologer with a huge and lively amulet that hangs on it is not very large Breasts. The amulet is more like a globe of the Earth visible from Space, but having pomahivaya lights. In this strange hanging on the chain that is not enough of it, and rimming it yet cocoon may cocoon is more like a balloon with dots of stars, flowing in a handful of constellations, how are we, perhaps, they could see if went beyond "crystal vault of the heavens", because they are more like painted on the vault. Comes out the vault of the heavens outside.

The story is not very intricate, and we went to him for a long time, but we figured out a way he told.

Worlds, what we would call a high, is drained below all isolated. Well, in fact, a banal drain. It has always been. However, he succeeded in this cycle to consider a little subtlety that some of the nodal points of the drain, there is a strange Deposit, which gradually changes composition and turns into flakes of gold. Usually, the entire drain, poured the worlds below, where it is processed, getting the compression and squeeze a product of grace that was delivered back on the table the higher worlds. In everyday life this was going to bag that in people is called soul. And the purpose of people, by bringing this bag to pass up, for what they are promised reward in the form of initiation into higher worlds. He said, his memory still has not climbed out of the sewer, and if it got out, it was zapihnut back in order to its smell and do not trash the local lordship.

Nuggets Ghost collected by local inhabitants of the lower worlds, for over no one wanted to go into a private sewer, and before that they brought out a flood of movement, but wanted more to get here and pripahali local, at the same time adapting them for the collection, giving them an incentive, an idea, and putting on stream.

Fineness is collected in the pouch of the grains of the spirit was only that they were scattered if the pouch open. In fact, they squabbled among themselves. But grains that noticed the "Old man", was going without any bag, and formed a self-contained bars, while they did not split into components, and could form a larger Union and they began to call the Spirit.

A rare phenomenon, but the benefit was worth it. "Old man," as the caretaker of one of the worlds, supplied, like all spirits in the bags shower, until someone found out that he himself spreads these Spirits behind someone up there. Tried to persuade, intimidate, even threaten, sent to known the secret, but he was solid, although, admittedly, the products of his world in great demand, even as it supplied. And delivery was considerable. Either way – would have smashed the world without a doubt and without hesitation again, and have taken all the secrets, but who will hack and so the outperformance of the company?

Take back the world and failed, or rather, when I tried to take openly rude, "the Old man" disappeared. It seeped through the streams and disappeared, leaving the others in disbelief. The world is left without a Caretaker, appointed a new one, but they are unable to maintain the issue on the same level, caretakers were varied, and the secret was never found. And it irritates those who are at the top, and who should annoy them? Decided from sin to leave the world as it is – let produces though so, for even the orphan, the world gave much more, orders of magnitude more products and better than many others. Protected it, and left in the conditions, obligation of delivery of the product stream.

The quest of the spirit, its scales and the principle continued. Secretly and openly, by the rules and without them, but many, many people have tried to explore this mystery. Leaked secretly and openly through the veil, tortured the natives, tortured local favorites, but no one knew the secret. Somehow it was moving, but how and what happened and why it happened, no one knew for sure. Attempts to create copies did not work. Attempts to breed the natives recruited in the same areas did not lead to anything. Had tried everything that could think again, but...
Couldn't do it.<
