REM sleep problem solving brain neuropsychology

"Participants grouped by REM sleep, non-REM sleep and quiet rest were indistinguishable on measures of memory," said Cai. "Although the quiet rest and non-REM sleep groups received the same prior exposure to the task, they displayed no improvement on the RAT test. Strikingly, however, the REM sleep group improved by almost 40 percent over their morning performances."

The study by Sara Mednick, PhD, assistant professor of psychiatry at UC San Diego and the VA San Diego Healthcare System, and first author Denise Cai, graduate student in the UC San Diego Department of Psychology, shows that REM directly enhances creative processing more than any other sleep or wake state. Their findings will be published in the June 8th online edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).

I love that ' bump up against' people and ideas counter to those which we' ve previously aligned-that' s kind of how I see aging gracefully-being able to see many more and others viewpoints-otherwise aging can seem like becoming caricatures of ourselves-we so believe our own thoughts (beliefs are after all only our much/most repeated thoughts!) and there' s no room for anyone or anything else! Mmmmmm yeah but now to live it!

My mother had a stroke and now she has big problems to communicate. She understands allmost everything, but have great problems to express herself speaking. Aging is not easy thing if you have problems with your health.

Truly! It' s alot slower to align with our preferences for sure when sick. I sincerely recommend www.bruno-groening.org as a resource The Bruno Groning Circle of Friends-all volunteers!. It' s a type of Faith healing that I recognise as quite remarkable. It has strong old world Germanic Christian vibe and/but dont let that put you off the ' healing stream' which is very easy to teach to yourself/your mother and available to all regardless of religious affliations.

For many years, drug addictions were deemed to be largely behavioral disorders once the abuser went through a period of detoxification. But advanced imaging technologies have now indicated that addiction is a physical process that occurs in addition to physical dependency.
