Psychological Self-Help - new - Table of Contents How do our daily emotions come out when we dream Although we're not entirely sure why it is that we dream, there are many theories on the topic. One theory says that dreams go hand in hand with our emotions. During the day, our brains are too busy focusing on the tasks at hand to process all of our emotional responses. New research has shown that it may be the sleep in which dreams occur that really helps to reset the day's emotions; the dreams simply run through them. The Search for Basic Emotions Table of Contents Before reading this you might want to explore your own emotions.

Emotions have all sorts of words used to describe them. If we are to investigate emotions we have to include the observer. Emotions and feelings stem from two great sources, namely the body (sickness, tired, etc) and other people (love, hate, anger, etc). The Plutchik Model of Emotions Before we continue, it would be best to consider Robert Plutchik's psychoevolutionary theory of emotion.

Dream Moods Dream Themes: Feelings & Emotions The emotions in your dream are usually never disguised. This means that the feelings you experience in your dream are not symbolic of something else, but rather they are reflections of your true, honest feelings. Such feelings may have been suppressed during the day and are being expressed in your dreams where your defenses are down. Feelings expressed in dreams can help you deal with depression, guilt, and other complex emotions. Negative emotions tend to occur twice as often as pleasant feelings. Abhorrence To dream that you abhor a person suggests your waking dislike for some person. To dream that you are being abhorred by others symbolizes that your good intentions to others will subside into selfishness. Afraid To dream that you are afraid indicates that you are experiencing self-doubt and feelings of incompetence in your waking life. Aggression To dream that you exhibit aggression in your dream denotes repressed sexual needs. Amorous Anger Animosity Annoyed Anxiety Betrayal Compassion Envy
Emotional Competency - Explore the Logic of Passion Quantum entanglement Quantum entanglement is a physical phenomenon that occurs when pairs or groups of particles are generated or interact in ways such that the quantum state of each particle cannot be described independently – instead, a quantum state may be given for the system as a whole. Such phenomena were the subject of a 1935 paper by Albert Einstein, Boris Podolsky and Nathan Rosen,[1] describing what came to be known as the EPR paradox, and several papers by Erwin Schrödinger shortly thereafter.[2][3] Einstein and others considered such behavior to be impossible, as it violated the local realist view of causality (Einstein referred to it as "spooky action at a distance"),[4] and argued that the accepted formulation of quantum mechanics must therefore be incomplete. History[edit] However, they did not coin the word entanglement, nor did they generalize the special properties of the state they considered.

Internet Sacred Text Archive Home Makes you think – The way you think about time has a big effect on your behavior by Marshall Brain | June 23, 2010 This is a fascinating video that looks at the different ways that human beings perceive time and the effects that these perceptions have on our behavior: The video starts by identifying six ways to perceive time: 1) Looking at the past as “the good old times” (past positive) 2) Looking at the past as a time filled with regrets and failure (past negative) 3) Present Hedonistic – focused on maximizing immediate pleasure and minimizing immediate pain 4) Present Fated – things happen because of my conditions 5) Future oriented, working to succeed in the future. 6) Future oriented, focused on an afterlife Some fun facts that come from the video: - “Protestant countries have higher gross national products than catholic countries.” - In some countries (e.g. - You can measure the pace of life in different cities.
