Recent research by Stanford University researchers has provided new insights into the phenomenon of sleepwalking. In their work, the scientists intended to tell about the causes of this phenomenon, for which they used electroencephalograms recorded in the course of somnambulistic behavior.
It was found that during an attack of sleepwalking, the "rational" part of the brain remains inactive, and also does not
their habitual control of the limbic system and the musculoskeletal system. Scientists believe that during this time, behavior is regulated by a kind of archaic survival system. It is known that many animals can maintain activity during sleep. Some birds continue to fly even when they are sleeping. This mechanism was developed for the need to make multi-day flights over the ocean. And in humans, the brain remains partially active during sleep in order to identify possible threats. Information about surrounding events is filtered by the brain, which continues to work in the background and decides whether to switch to active mode.
Today, it is assumed that among primates only humans have a tendency to sleepwalking, which indicates the development of this survival mechanism as a result of evolution. We asked an expert of "Anomalous News" to comment on this information, the hereditary sorceress Irina. Here is what she replied: “I would recommend not to consider sleepwalking as a disease, and certainly would not use the word 'seizure.' After all, sleepwalking is a sign that a person has abilities for supersensible perception, which should not be suppressed, but developed.
All great mediums in childhood were pronounced sleepwalkers, but they managed to awaken the forces in themselves that opened doors for them to other worlds. And therefore, the conclusion of scientists that sleepwalking among hominids is inherent only in humans is quite fair. Although a person is partly an animal, the main thing in him is a spiritual component. And she, like a butterfly from a cocoon, is trying to break through the instincts in order to cognize the Subtle plans and connect with the Absolute …"
