✦ The Science

A New State of Consciousness

In a lucid dream, your brain switches into waking mode inside the dream. The frontal cortex — the seat of self-awareness, language, and higher thought — lights up with Gamma-range brainwave activity at 40 Hz, far above the normal dream state of 4–7 Hz.

Some researchers argue lucid dreaming should be classified as an entirely new state of consciousness — distinct from both waking and sleeping.

The first scientific proof came in 1975 when Dr Keith Hearne captured pre-determined eye movement signals from a lucid dreaming volunteer in a sleep lab. Since then, studies at Stanford, Frankfurt, and institutions worldwide have continued to validate and explore this remarkable phenomenon.
