Episode notes
In the 1990s, it was discovered that different parts of our brain remain deactivated while others activate during REM and non-REM sleep. The executive network, responsible for our awareness of time and other external factors, is completely deactivated during sleep. Attention networks also slack off during this time. This deactivation allows the network for imagination, selfhood, memory, and internal thinking to become more prominent, leading to intense dreaming.
