November 20th, 2011 § 0 comments § permalink

Sad weekend Lost my Floppy bunny (Frappy ) of 2 yrs. I am not sure why she seemed to be doing great and then boom. I did research and they usually have a life span if taken care of well which ours are of 8 – 14 yrs but we are not sure if the Terminix guy might have sprayed something outside by accident. That is the only thing I can think of happened a day or so before. We miss  her so very much  we just got her fixed about 6 months ago and she was by far the sweetest and cutest bunny. I miss her very much. Its funny how you can get so attached to animals. I love all animals. :( Hard when you loose a pet you love so much. I thank everyone for all the sweet comments on Facebook and Twitter and of course real life . I truly am blessed with great friends.

Sunday was more a relax day which I needed I just wanted a quite day but hard when you have all teens cause then they have all there friends over and when your done the house is filled but, its been a good day all in all. This week the kids have off for Thanksgiving which I am looking forward too. Tomorrow is my Spa day from 9 to 12 I totally need it. Then other running and shopping in the evening for Thanksgiving with the hubby. He cooks every year not me which is so nice :) . I am so blessed that way. I tell you when you go through crap for years and years and finally get your crap in your life taken care of and basically together. Life is great. Not saying I don’t have bad days but everyone does. But, I have been loving the past couple of years. Why cause I started loving me. So important. If you don’t love yourself you can’t love anyone right.

Anyways I hope everyone have a wonderful Blessed Thanksgiving!

Blog#7 10 Amazing Facts about Dreams!

November 13th, 2011 § 0 comments § permalink

10. Blind People Dream

People who become blind after birth can see images in their dreams. People who are born blind do not see any images, but have dreams equally vivid involving their other senses of sound, smell, touch and emotion. It is hard for a seeing person to imagine, but the body’s need for sleep is so strong that it is able to handle virtually all physical situations to make it happen.

9. You Forget 90% of your Dreams

Within 5 minutes of waking, half of your dream if forgotten. Within 10, 90% is gone.

8. Everybody Dreams

Every human being dreams (except in cases of extreme psychological disorder) but men and women have different dreams and different physical reactions. Men tend to dream more about other men, while women tend to dream equally about men and women. In addition, both men and women experience sexually related physical reactions to their dreams regardless of whether the dream is sexual in nature; males experience erections and females experience increased vaginal blood flow.

7. Dreams Prevent Psychosis

In a recent sleep study, students who were awakened at the beginning of each dream, but still allowed their 8 hours of sleep, all experienced difficulty in concentration, irritability, hallucinations, and signs of psychosis after only 3 days. When finally allowed their REM sleep the student’s brains made up for lost time by greatly increasing the percentage of sleep spent in the REM stage

6. We Only Dream of What We Know

Our dreams are frequently full of strangers who play out certain parts – did you know that your mind is not inventing those faces – they are real faces of real people that you have seen during your life but may not know or remember? The evil killer in your latest dream may be the guy who pumped petrol in to your Dad’s carwhen you were just a little kid. We have all seen hundreds of thousands of faces through our lives, so we have an endless supply of characters for our brain to utilize during our dreams.

5. Not Everyone Dreams in Color

A full 12% of sighted people dream exclusively in black and white. The remaining number dream in full color. People also tend to have common themes in dreams, which are situations relating to school, being chased, running slowly/in place, sexual experiences, falling, arriving too late, a person now alive being dead, teeth falling out, flying, failing an examination, or a car accident. It is unknown whether the impact of a dream relating to violence or death is more emotionally charged for a person who dreams in color than one who dreams in black and white

4. Dreams are not about what they are about

If you dream about some particular subject it is not often that the dream is about that. Dreams speak in a deeply symbolic language. The unconscious mind tries to compare your dream to something else, which is similar. Its like writing a poem and saying that a group of ants were like machines that never stop. But you would never compare something to itself, for example: “That beautiful sunset was like a beautiful sunset”. So whatever symbol your dream picks on it is most unlikely to be a symbol for itself.

3. Quitters have more vivid dreams

People who have smoked cigarettes for a long time who stop, have reported much more vivid dreams than they would normally experience. Additionally, according to the Journal of Abnormal Psychology: “Among 293 smokers abstinent for between 1 and 4 weeks, 33% reported having at least 1 dream about smoking. In most dreams, subjects caught themselves smoking and felt strong negative emotions, such as panic and guilt. Dreams about smoking were the result of tobacco withdrawal, as 97% of subjects did not have them while smoking, and their occurrence was significantly related to the duration of abstinence. They were rated as more vivid than the usual dreams and were as common as most major tobacco withdrawal symptoms

2. External Stimuli Invade our Dreams

This is called Dream Incorporation and it is the experience that most of us have had where a sound from reality is heard in our dream and incorporated in some way. A similar (though less external) example would be when you are physically thirsty and your mind incorporates that feeling in to your dream. My own experience of this includes repeatedly drinking a large glass of water in the dream which satisfies me, only to find the thirst returning shortly after – this thirst… drink… thirst… loop often recurs until I wake up and have a real drink

1. You are paralyzed while you sleep

Believe it or not, your body is virtually paralyzed during your sleep – most likely to prevent your body from acting out aspects of your dreams. According to the “Glands begin to secrete a hormone that helps induce sleep and neurons send signals to the spinal cord which cause the body to relax and later become essentially paralyzed.”

Two Favorite Quotes of the day

 

I have my own particular sorrows, loves, delights; and you have yours. But sorrow, gladness, yearning, hope, love, belong to all of us, in all times and in all places.  Music is the only means whereby we feel these emotions in their universality. H.A. Overstreet

The need for devotion to something outside ourselves is even more profound than the need for companionshipIf we are not to go to pieces or wither awaywe all must have some purpose in life; for no man can live for himself alone. — Ross Parmenter
