Altered States of Awareness01:06

Altered States of Awareness

1.2K
Altered states of consciousness represent significant deviations from one's normal mental state. These deviations can range from subtle changes in awareness to profound transformations in perception, thought processes, and sensory experiences. Altered states of consciousness can be triggered by various factors, including drug use, meditation, hypnosis, illness, or even intense fatigue.

Subconsciousness and No Awareness01:15

Subconsciousness and No Awareness

728
The concept of subconscious awareness refers to the processing of information below the level of conscious thought, which significantly influences both behaviors and decisions. It is also known as waking subconscious awareness. This complex level of cognition operates without the direct awareness of the individual, facilitating rapid and simultaneous handling of multiple information streams.
An illustrative example of subconscious processing is its role in problem-solving. Often, individuals...

Self-Awareness and Its Effects01:21

Self-Awareness and Its Effects

321
Self-awareness is a psychological state in which the individual becomes the focal point of their attention. This inward focus transforms the self into an object of contemplation and assessment, influencing how individuals perceive their actions and their alignment with personal and societal standards.Triggers and Contexts for Self-AwarenessSelf-awareness can be activated by external stimuli that make individuals visually or audibly aware of themselves, such as mirrors, cameras, or recordings.

Understanding Consciousness01:23

Understanding Consciousness

2.2K
Consciousness can be defined as the state of being aware of and able to think about one's existence, sensations, and surroundings. It encompasses two major components: awareness and arousal. Awareness pertains to the recognition of environmental stimuli and internal states. At the same time, arousal refers to the physiological readiness to engage with these stimuli, which varies significantly between states like sleep and wakefulness.
Sleep, a crucial state, is characterized by reduced...

General State of Stress01:21

General State of Stress

684
The general state of stress within a material can be accurately depicted using a stress tensor. This tensor encapsulates the internal forces distributed within a material subjected to external forces or deformations.
Specifically, consider a tetrahedral element where one face, labeled XYZ, is perpendicular to the line OA, and the remaining faces align with the coordinate axes with point O as the origin. At any point, such as point O, the stress tensor can be used to determine the stress...

Lucid Dreaming01:10

Lucid Dreaming

592
Lucid dreaming is a unique state of consciousness where an individual realizes they are dreaming while still in the dream. This awareness allows them to manipulate their dream environment consciously. Researchers like Stephen LaBerge have significantly contributed to the understanding of lucid dreams, highlighting that during these dreams, certain areas of the brain, such as the prefrontal cortex, that involve self-awareness and thought evaluation show increased activity.
Studies have shown...

Area of Science:

  • Phenomenology
  • Human Science Research

Background:

  • Understanding the lived experience of peace is crucial for well-being.
  • Previous research has not fully elucidated the structure of feeling peaceful.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the structure of the lived experience of feeling peaceful.
  • To answer the question: What is the structure of the living experience of feeling peaceful?

Main Methods:

  • Utilized Parse's research methodology.
  • Conducted a qualitative study with twelve community-dwelling participants.

Main Results:

  • The structure of feeling peaceful was identified as 'contentedness amid tribulation, as unburdening surfaces with devout involvements'.
  • Identified key elements: contentedness, tribulation, unburdening, and devout involvements.

Conclusions:

  • The findings offer insight into the complex structure of peace.
  • Results are discussed in relation to the human-becoming school of thought and existing literature.
