A new study published in the journal Dreaming investigated whether lucid dreaming training could improve emotional processing. However, the strongest effects were linked to REM sleep itself rather than lucid dreaming. Researchers Jamie Tartar, Logan Bratter, Shiny Lal, and Jonathan Banks studied 80 participants who underwent EEG sleep monitoring and completed lucid dreaming training. The training did not increase …

Science — a classification, not a measurement. An on-box language model (Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-FP8, prompt version 1) read this channel’s own recent posts on 22 September 2026 and assigned it the closest of 31 fixed categories, at 91% confidence. This is a model’s judgement about what the channel is likely to be about, not a fact this register measured the way a subscriber count or a view count is measured — it can be revised on a later pass, and it carries no weight anywhere else on this page. How this classification works, and why it has no browse page of its own yet.

Engagement
20 posts held, back to 15 August 2025 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 page of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 20 posts for this entry, the most recent from 24 July 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.
Reaction mix
29 reactions across 9 posts, in 8 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 31.0% of them.

No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 9 of the 20 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 29 reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 20 most recent posts we hold, published 15 August 2025 to 24 July 2026, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.

Sleep paralysis was not associated with poor sleep…

A recent study published in the International Journal of Dream Research found that many teenagers experience lucid dreams even if they do not know the term "lucid dreaming." Researchers Michael Schredl and Lillien Müller surveyed 226 adolescents aged 10–20. About 53% reported at least one lucid dream, meaning they realized they were dreaming while asleep. Only about one third knew what lucid dreaming was before the …

How to Distinguish a Near-Death Experience from Delirium Near-death experiences aren’t all that rare. As many as 20% of people who survive cardiac arrest and 15% of those who’ve been in intensive care report having various “adventures.” Incidentally, the impact of these “journeys” can be either positive (e.g., increased empathy, reduced fear of death) or negative (e.g., misunderstanding from others, psychological is…

Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @phasetoday. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
