THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE SLEEP AND DREAM WHICH COME WHILE SLEEPING.  The Science behind dreams during our sleep is as wide and interesting to study. For most of people they may like to know what triggers their nightmares, sleep-walking , and acting your dreams etc. You can read this article and get a knowledge of what happens.  Experts say that a renaissance is happening right now in our understanding of REM ( rapid eye movement ) sleep. REM is the sleep stage associated with our most vivid dreams, but it is also believed to be important for learning and may influence migraines. The regulation of REM sleep plays a major role in sleep disorders, like narcolepsy, where the boundaries of being awake and the state of dreaming are melted together. And within the last couple of years, scientists have made major strides in unraveling the neural circuitry in control of REM sleep.For instance, in a study in the journal  Nature http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v526/n7...

The Science of the Sleep

Image
THE SCIENCE OF THE SLEEP What is sleep?  Sleep is a sedentary state of mind and body. It is characterized by altered consciousness, relatively inhibited sensory activity, reduced muscle activity and reduced interactions with surroundings.[1] It is distinguished from wakefulness by a decreased ability to react to stimuli, but more reactive than a coma or disorders of consciousness, with sleep displaying different, active brain patterns. SLEEP PROCESSES Two body processes control sleeping and waking periods. These are called sleep/wake homeostasis and the circadian biological clock. With sleep/wake homeostasis, the longer you are awake, the greater your body senses the need to sleep. If this process alone was in control of your sleep/wake cycles, in theory you would have the most energy when you woke up in the morning. And you would be tired and ready for sleep at the end of the day. But your circadian biological clock causes highs and lows of sleepiness and wakefulness t...

POWERFUL THINKING

7 powerful Steps to Positive Thinking  1. Seek to focus on what you want instead of what you don’t want: A mistake we tend to make when we’re faced with a problem is to think and talk about it all the time - instead of focusing our thinking on what we want instead. 2. Recognise that every problem comes with a lesson: There’s a lesson to be learned from all that happens to us. We can become a better person - even when things have gone wrong. 3. Don’t believe everything you think: Our problems aren’t as big as the mind tries to convince us. Don’t believe all those negative and self-defeating thoughts. 4. Choose to be grateful in everything: Although it’s hard to be grateful when things are going wrong, we can usually find something we can be grateful for - and the more we choose gratitude, the happier we’ll feel. 5.

THE RIGHT TIME FOR DECISION MAKING

Image
The story with moral lesson Put a frog into a vessel filled with water and start heating the water. As the temperature of the water begins to rise, the frog adjusts its body temperature accordingly. The frog keeps adjusting its body temperature with the increasing temperature of the water. Just when the water is about to reach boiling point, the frog can not adjust any more. At this point, the frog decides to jump out. The frog tries to jump but it is unable to do so because it has lost all its strength in adjusting to the rising water  temperature. Very soon the frog dies. What killed the frog? Think about it! I know many of us will say the boiling water. But the truth about what killed the frog was its own inability to decide when to jump out. We all need to adjust to people and situations, but we need to be sure when we need to adjust and when we need to move on. There are times when we need to face the situation and take appropriate actions. If we allow people to ex...

THE MANDATE OF PARENTS

Image
THE MANDATE OF THE PARENTS Parents are the master controllers of their children. This is only possible when the parents bring up the children under respect , discipline and behavioral way which induce desired traits which ends up becoming part of their behavior and conscience in their whore life. Respect and discipline aren't earned by harshness and rudeness but by controlling one's ego to match other people's ego level. By so doing communication with no anger and full of all values is developed. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ (Quote by Athanasius Mulwa Mutual(Nati):You can't teach old dogs new tricks) To concur with him,I can say ,that  it's the mandate of parents to start the process of their children's behavioral control immediately after birth. To summarize this in kiswahili (for those who can understand) : Wazazi waonyesheni wanao upendo kwa kutumia mamlaka ya fimbo ndipo wasipoteze njia na kuwajutisha maishani.

One day a merchant came to the village to buy the monkeys. He announced that he would buy the monkeys for £100 each. The villagers thought he was mad. They thought how can somebody buy stray monkeys for £100 each? Still, some people caught a few monkeys and gave them to the merchant and he gave them £100 for each monkey. This news spread like wildfire and more people caught more monkeys to sell to the merchant. After a few days, the merchant announced that he would buy monkeys for £200 each.

Self acknowledgement

Image
Never Mind what others didn’t do. It’s what you do that counts. If you depend upon others for your success, you are doomed to a life of failure and despair. It is a sad fact of life that few people consistently deliver what they promise. Instead of lamenting what someone else should have done to help you, focus on what you can do to help yourself. The best plan of action is one that provides opportunities for others to benefit if they wish to work with you toward the accomplishment of your goals but that does not depend upon these people for success.

Finding your happiness

WOW... A professor gave a balloon to every student, who had to inflate it, write their name on it and throw it in the hallway. The professor then mixed all the balloons. The students were then given 5 minutes to find their own ballon. Despite a hectic search, no one found their balloon. At that point, the professor told the students to take the first ballon that they found and hand it to the person whose name was written on it. Within 5 minutes, everyone had their own ballon. The professor said to the students: " These balloons are like happiness. We will never find it if everyone is looking for their own. But if we care about other people's happiness, we'll find ours too.
