Is the film Inception（《盗梦空间》）a reality? Studies suggest “lucid dreams（清醒梦）”where we coutrol the action are on the rise. In the movie, a dream world can be controlled at will. But for more and more of us, it is becoming a reality, with the number of people experiencing lucid dreams rising quickly. In the film, Leonardo DiCapris AND Ellen Page walk through a dream world where they are able to bend streets into the sky, walk up on the wall and destroy a café by the force of will.
While the plot of a lucid dream may not be dramatic, the process is similar, people having a lucid dream realize they are dreaming and may fro then on “direct” the action. Or they may simply “watch” the dream unfold.
The sense of awareness makes it different from the a dream that is simply extremely vivid and true to life. And while the description may seem fantastic, the process is familiar to many of us.
Studies suggest that the number of people in the Western world experiencing the lucid dream sometimes has risen by between 10% and 40% since the 1980s. today, they are so common that about one in eight of us will have one in our lives. Despite this, little is known about what causes them – or what is behind the rise.
Research carried out at the respected Harvard University in the US showed the brain to be hard at work during lucid dreams. In fact, the level of mental activity in some parts of the brain was similar to that of a person awake.
Lucid dreamers seem to share certain individual character. For instance, they are creative and believe in personal responsibility rather than letting society solve the problem. Scientists of course, do not know the function of dreams in general, far less that of lucid ones.
Our nightmares may reflect or waking concerns. And previous research has found that women have more nightmares than men. Their dreams are also more intense (紧张的) and leave more of an impression when they wake up.
