#1 Neuroscientist: How to Unlock the Power of Your Mind Using The Science of Dreaming
What was said
"Dreams can happen at any part of sleep, and even when you fall asleep and when you're waking up. So now we are thinking that a third of our life is spent dreaming."
Dr. Rahul Jandial, a world-renowned neurosurgeon and neuroscientist, revealed that contrary to popular belief, humans spend roughly one-third of their lives actively dreaming, not merely sleeping. This finding, based on brain electrical measurements, suggests dreaming is far more pervasive than previously understood and essential to human cognition rather than an accidental byproduct of rest.
