PSYCHOLOGY OF EMOTIONS

Detailed explanation-1: -Hypnagogia is the experience of the transitional state from wakefulness to sleep: the hypnagogic state of consciousness, during the onset of sleep.

Detailed explanation-2: -UNITARY CONSCIOUSNESS There are also many common experiences that create altered states of consciousness (ASC), such as sleeping or daydreaming, sleep deprivation, euphoria or panic. Dream state, hypnosis, and meditation are also considered as ASC.

Detailed explanation-3: -Sleep is a unique state of consciousness; it lacks full awareness but the brain is still active. People generally follow a “biological clock” that impacts when they naturally become drowsy, when they fall asleep, and the time they naturally awaken.

Detailed explanation-4: -Sleep, unlike anesthesia or coma, can be thought of as set of rapidly reversible states of unconsciousness, and as such raises interesting questions as to the extent to which conscious awareness occurs throughout the sleep period and how it influences subjective sleep quality.
