Futhi lokhu ngaphandle kweqiniso lokuthi esimweni sokulala kwesinye isikhathi sizwa imizwa enamandla kunaseqinisweni.
Kubonakala sengathi sesivukile futhi sikhumbula kahle kakhulu lokho esikuphuphile, kodwa empeleni kudlula ihora - futhi cishe zonke izinkumbulo ziyanyamalala. Kungani lokhu kwenzeka? Uma ezinye zezehlakalo emaphusheni ethu zenzeka empilweni yangempela - yithi, ukuthandana nenkanyezi ye-movie, khona-ke iyohlala ibhalwe enkumbulweni yakho futhi, mhlawumbe ekhasini lakho lezokuxhumana. Kepha maqondana namaphupho, sisheshe sikhohlwe imicimbi engakholeki neze.
Kunemibono eminingi eyamukelwa kabanzi yokuchaza ubunjalo bamaphupho obudlulayo. Ababili babo, abacashunwe yiHuffington Post, bachaza ukukhohlwa kwephupho njengenzuzo enkulu ngombono wokuziphendukela kwemvelo. Owokuqala uthi uma umuntu ongumhume ekhumbula indlela agxuma ngayo eweni bese endiza, ebalekela ibhubesi, uzozama ukuyiphinda empeleni futhi ngeke asinde.
Umbono wesibili wokuziphendukela kwemvelo wokukhohlwa amaphupho wasungulwa nguFrancis Crick, ongomunye wabavumbuli be-DNA, ochaza ukuthi umsebenzi wokulala ukususa ubuchopho bethu ezinkumbulweni nezinhlangano ezingadingekile ezinganqwabelana kuwo ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, okukuvala. Ngakho-ke, siyabakhohlwa cishe ngokushesha.
Obunye bobunzima obukhulu lapho sizama ukukhumbula iphupho ukuthi sikhumbula izehlakalo zangempela ngokulandelana kwazo, ngokulandelana kwazo, futhi sicabangela imbangela nomphumela. Amaphupho, nokho, awanawo amalungiselelo acace kangako ngesikhathi nendawo; bayazulazula futhi bakhukhuleze ngokuhlangana kanye nokuxhumana ngokomzwelo.
Esinye isithiyo ekukhumbuleni amaphupho yimpilo yethu uqobo, enezinkathazo nezingcindezi zayo. Into yokuqala iningi lethu elicabanga ngayo lapho sivuka yibhizinisi elizayo, elenza iphupho linyamalale ngokushesha.
Isici sesithathu ukunyakaza nokuma komzimba wethu esikhaleni, ngoba imvamisa siphupha siphumule, silele ngokuvundlile. Lapho sivuka, ukunyakaza okuningi okwenziwe ngaleyo ndlela kuphazamisa intambo encane yokulala.
Ukuze uthuthukise ikhono lakho lokukhumbula amaphupho, udinga ukuxazulula lezi zinkinga ezintathu zemvelo: ukulingana kwenkumbulo, ukubambeka ezindabeni zamanje, nokunyakaza komzimba.
UTerry McCloskey wase-Iowa wabelane ngezimfihlo zakhe noShutterstock ukumsiza ekuxazululeni lezi zinkinga futhi akhumbule amaphupho akhe. Njalo ebusuku uqala amawashi amabili e-alamu: iwashi le-alamu likhumbuza ukuqaphela ukuthi ekuseni kuzodingeka ukuthi acabange ngezinkinga ezicindezelayo, futhi iwashi lomculo liyamgqugquzela ukuthi konke kuhlelekile nokuthi ukwazi ukugxila ebuthongweni.
UMcCloskey uphinde abeke ipeni nencwadi yokubhalela ku-nightstand. Lapho evuka, uyazikhipha, enze ukunyakaza okuncane futhi angaphakamisi ikhanda. Ngemuva kwalokho uzama kuqala ukukhumbula imizwa nemizwa yakhe ngesikhathi sokulala bese evumela izinkumbulo ukuthi zakhe izinhlangano zamahhala (inqubo ye-psychoanalytic), futhi angaziphoqeleli ukuba zilandelane ngokulandelana kwemicimbi. UTerry akahlukani nencwajana yokubhalela usuku lonke uma kwenzeka ngokuzumayo ekhumbula izingcezu noma imizwa yasebusuku bangaphambilini.
Ngendlela, manje kunezicelo eziningi zama-Smartphones nama-smartwatches akuvumela ukuthi urekhode masisha amaphupho ngaphambi kokuba anyamalale. Isibonelo, iDreamsWatch ye-Android ikuvumela ukuthi utshele iphupho kudivayisi yokuqopha, okwenza ukunyakaza okumbalwa kakhulu, futhi iwashi layo le-alamu elidlidlizayo lithumela isignali ku-cortex yobuchopho ukuthi konke sekumi ngomumo futhi awukwazi ukukhathazeka okwamanje okwamanje.
Uma ufuna ukubamba ngekhanda amaphupho akho (ngaphandle kokucabanga ngamabhubesi!), Lapho-ke amasu anjalo angayithuthukisa kakhulu inqubo yokukhumbula ama-adventures ethu asebusuku nokuwathola ememori.
