Why do I see in 3-d?

Like all human beings, you have ‘’binocular vision’’, meaning both your eyes face toward the front and provide your brain with two slightly offset images. Your brain processes the differences in these two images to create a perception of depth, or a three – dimensional view.

In order to see 3D and with stereo depth perception your brain has to use the visual information from both eyes. If the two eye views are too different and cannot be matched up, the brain will be forced to make a choice. It will reject all or part of the information from one eye. The brain can ignore, suppress or turn off visual information it cannot use.

Why are my eyes Green or Brown?

Just like the shape of your nose and the color of your hair, your eye color is determined by the genes you inherit from your parents. Those genes determine how much melanin – a colored chemical matter – you have in each iris, which is the colorful part of our eye. The more melanin you have, the darker your eyes. Less melanin makes for lighter eyes, which is why fair – skinned people often have light blue or gray eyes.

Brown is the most common eye color. Individuals with brown eyes have more melanin present, and over half of the people in the world have brown eyes. People who don this hue are said to be very independent, self-confident and determined. You are known to be trustworthy, and when people look at you they get a sense of security and stability.

Green is the least common eye color, but it is found most frequently in northern and central Europe. People with green eyes are curious about nature, very passionate in their relationships with other people and have an overall positive and creative outlook on life. These people tend to get jealous easily, but possess large amounts of love.

What does it mean when I dream about getting chased by something?

Chase dreams are one of several common dream themes, stemming from feelings of anxiety in your waking life. Flee and flight is an instinctive response to a physical threat in the environment. In such dreams, the scenario often features you being pursued by an attacker, an animal, a monster or an unknown figure, who wants to hurt or possibly kill you. Ask yourself who is chasing you, so that you can gain a better understanding and insight on the source of your fears and anxieties.

The pursuer or attacker who is chasing you in your dream may also represent an aspect of yourself. Your own feelings of anger, jealousy, fear, and possibly love, can manifest itself as the threatening figure. Next time you have a dream of being chased, turn around and confront your pursuer. 

If you are the one doing the chasing, then the dream may highlight your drive and ambition to go after something you want. Or perhaps the dream suggests that you are falling behind and having to catch up with everyone else.

Life’s going great. You feel like you have the freedom to accomplish anything!  A flying dream could indicate strong feelings of freedom and bliss, which can represent moving toward a higher state of awareness or connection with spirit.  It can also provide a broader perspective on your life by virtue of giving you a higher vantage point.

How long do I need to sleep before I start to dream?

The Alpha stage is a period in which the body and mind prepare to relax and might be accompanied by daydreams and a hazy feeling that may make these visions feel like actual dreams. Some could also experience realistic physical, visual, or auditory events during this time. It is estimated that people take an average of 7 minutes to fall asleep, but we should not actually begin dreaming until much later during the sleep cycle.

About an hour and a half into our slumber experience, we enter REM, or the Rapid Eye Movement portion of rest. This is when the actual dreaming starts. It is at this level that the muscles in the body are at their peak rest, while brain activity peaks.

The REM stage may only be a few minutes long when a person first experiences it. Sleepers go through the various cycles several times in one night and REM should grow longer each time it comes up in the cycle. This should also dictate the length at which your dreams last, as they happen in real time.

 

On average, it should take approximately 90 minutes to start your nightly adventures. But how long it lasts depends on the amount of time you are able to sustain deep REM sleep so be sure to practice mindfulness and meditation techniques that promote deeper sleep!
