1. Dreaming: Lucid and Non, David Foulkes
- www.sawka.com
- Dreaming: Lucid and Non .
- I restrict my comments to two areas where LaBerges remarks have implica-tions for the study of ordinary (nonlucid) dreaming (which must comprise at least 99. ... The first area is the potential of lucid dream techniques in addressing problems in mainstream dream psychology, and the second is where LaBerge discusses ordinary dreaming per se. ...
- But does this have anything to do with mind-body relationships during ordinary dreaming, which has, on the face of it, a different organization of mental functions than lucid dreaming, and in which people arent remembering or otherwise trying voluntarily to manipulate their real and/or imagined body state?.
- One answer might be that what is surprising is that people can remember that theyre supposed to hold their breath, can voluntarily attempt to do so, and can sig-nal their accomplishment to the experimenter while asleep and dreaming. ... But both "sleep" and "dreaming" are defined by sets of convergent indicators, ideally by the convergence of all members of these sets. ... If someone gives you "The Power of Being Awake and Aware in Your Dreams" (LaBerges subtitle), then its by no means clear to me that were still talking about sleep and dreaming in the usual way, nor that observa-tions from awake-aware sleep and dreaming necessarily generalize to ordinary sleep and dreaming. Put another way, when a major component of any system such as sleep or dreaming is altered, its a different system. The kind of dream-content protocols LaBerge uses to illustrate lucid dreaming are sufficiently different from laboratory REM dreams (and from the remembered content of my home dreams) to lead me to believe that lucid dreaming is indeed a different animal than ordinary dreaming (and if it werent, why would LaBerge so enthusiastically be urging us to change our style of dreaming?). ...
- How are they different? Here, it seems to me is where the most interesting im-plications for ordinary dreaming lie. Theoretically, the issue is this: when you change ordinary dreaming by adding a self which intends and reflects, what else changes alongside this change? This is one way of evaluating the role played by the absence of self in ordinary dreaming, and is perhaps the point at which lucid dreaming data could be most relevant to ordinary dream psychology. ...
- At several points, LaBerges account comes to focus on ordinary dreaming. I take exception to the following of his assumptions about such dreaming. ...
- Dreaming is more like perceiving or living life than like imagining. This assumption justifies attempts to make dreaming lucidif this is what dreaming is, why not be fully aware? Dreaming no doubt simulates waking experience, and far better than waking imagination or mental imagery generally can. ... That dreaming is different from perception and life is just this way raises interesting questions for lucid dream advocates. Is it necessarily as adaptive to be self-aware in dreamings kind of cognitive reprocessing as it is in waking sensory processing? If so, why is nonlucidity so pervasive during dreaming? .

- As I pondered this I abruptly realized that I must be dreaming! "Of course!" I said. ... As I looked at these people, I realized it wasn't my real husband or either of my real children-I excitedly blurted out at them that we were all dreaming. ... I yelled again "WE ARE DREAMING!!!" As I became even more self-conscious, I announced that I could test my theory by flying. ... The above is an example of lucid dreaming. Lucid dreaming is the state of being conscious in your dreams. You are aware that you are dreaming, while dreaming. ... Gazing at something in your home or on your body, such as your hands during your regular workday is a technique used by dream researchers to induce lucid dreaming. Another technique is to continually ask yourself throughout the day if you are dreaming. ... Stephen LaBerge the pioneer of lucid dreaming research suggests that once you can become lucid, there is no limit to what your imagination can create in a dream. ... A person who is experienced at lucid dreaming can actually set up scenarios with which to learn or solve problems in their lives. Did you want to try something but were afraid of injury or expenses? How about downhill skiing or asking your boss for a raise? Stephen LaBerge also sees lucid dreaming as a solution to high anxiety dreams or nightmares.

- A long-simmering debate over the purpose of dreaming takes a surprising turn with a Columbia ocular physiologist's hypothesis. ...
- The biology of dreaming:.
- Neurobiologists and neuropsychiatrists tend to think of dreaming sleep as "physiologically determined" and shaped by the activation of brain neurons, according to J. ... The implications of this activation hypothesis contrast sharply with the psychoanalytic view of the dreaming process. ...
- In 1953, roughly a half century after Freud posited his theories, sleep researchers Eugene Aserinsky and Nathaniel Kleitman discovered that dreaming was associated with REM sleep. ...
- The primary motivating force for dreaming is not psychological but physiological since the time of occurrence and duration of dreaming sleep are quite constant, suggesting a preprogrammed, neurally determined genesis. ...
- Richards retorts that "A scientist can develop an understanding of the physiological function of dreaming and still not know anything about the meaning of dreams, because one is a physiological phenomenon and the other is a psychological phenomenon. It may be that REM dreaming does something to the cornea, but that doesn't say anything about the nature of dreams and their m eaning and use in psychoanalysis. ...
- Some commentators, indeed, come close to contending that "function" is not always what dreaming is about, liberating some dreams from goals and causality altogether. "Neither the classical psychoanalytic approach nor the physiologic attacks on it have been, in our opinion, been able to explain fully the purpose or function of dreaming," wrote Harvard Medical School psychiatrist Ramon Greenberg and three of his colleagues in a recent issue of the Journal of the American Psychoanalytic Association. ...

- The Reality of Dreaming.
- The Reality of Dreaming .
- Dreaming is the most outstanding of the non-ordinary conscious states. ... Dreaming has definite correlates in central nervous activity in the so called rapid eye movement REM which are associated with electroenephalograms that have similar characteristics to waking activity, rather than the large slow waves of deep sleep, and are hence also sometimes called paradoxical. Although many people claim to dream rarely, or not to have dreams as vivid as the experiences of daily life, tests tend to confirm that these impressions stem from lack of recall of the dreaming state, because of subsequent periods of deep non-dreaming sleep that alternate with the dreaming state during sleep.
- Indeed cats who have had certain midbrain centres removed do act out their dreams! The onset of light and subsequently dreaming sleep is mediated by specific nuclei in the pons, which secrete serotonin and nor-epinephrine and have ascending pathways that branch out widely across the cortex. During periods of light and dreaming sleep both sexes also experience sexual arousal, which is believed to accompany the regeneration of hormonal activity during the resting phase. ...
- Dream deprivation appears to result in specific syndromes over and above non-dreaming sleep. Selective dreaming sleep deprivation in cats results in physiological compensation. ...
- (a) Ascending serotonin and nor-epinephrine pathways modulate light and dreaming sleep .
- (c) Dreaming e. ...
- Dreaming thus corresponds to a clear-cut functional brain state in which the long slow waves of deep sleep give way to a brain state like alert wakefulness in which the body is paralysed and vivid subjective experiences occur. ...
- Some intense phases of dreaming appear to bring about a hallucinogenic phase in which dreaming is often coloured and hypnotically bizarre. ...
- The experiential and causal implications of dreaming appear to extend far beyond the physiological context. Although the significance of dreaming in recent western culture has concentrated on the symbolism of dreaming as an expression of fears and aspirations in daily life and its analysis as a means of therapy, the reference to dreaming in other cultures, from the Dreamtime of the Australian aboriginal people, through the Senoi of Malaysia , to the Old Testament prophets includes the use of dreams to anticipate future problems and events, and is based on the concept that the dreaming state is another level of conscious reality, which is not an illusory representation of the 'real world' but rather, a mode of conscious existence in its own right. ...
