- Neuroscientist, neurosurgeon and dream doctor, Rahul Jandial, looks at how accurate portrayals of dreams are in popular films and TV shows. He explains how we dream, why we dream and what the content of our dreams may mean.
You can get his new book, This Is Why You Dream: What your sleeping brain reveals about your waking life, here: www.penguin.co.uk/books/45463...
Dreams are a source of mystery. They have changed the course of individual lives and the world, spurring business deals, inspiring art and scientific breakthroughs, triggering military invasions and mental breakdowns. Yet the source of dreams is not mysterious. They are the product of an extraordinary transformation that occurs in the brain each night when we sleep. In this pioneering book, bestselling neurosurgeon Rahul Jandial delves into the dreaming brain and shares stories from his own practice to show the astonishing impact that dreams have on our waking life. He explains how dreaming of an exam might help you score up to 20% higher, why taking a long nap could make you better at problem-solving, and even that certain dream disorders can warn you of serious diseases like Parkinson’s years ahead of other symptoms. He offers clear and compelling advice, backed by new research, to become a lucid dreamer, understand your dreaming patterns and unleash their creative power.

This guy's so dreamy!
This was so interesting, I love how passionately he talks about his field and particularly his fascination with dreams in children!
I was listening to this and fell asleep.....I dreamt that Dr. Jandial came to Guyana and I was fortunate to get the opportunity to interact with him...he even took something off my plate and eat it...this is awesome❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Glad you're continuing this series! And I love learning about dreams.
The last clip from 8 1/2 was one of the best depictions of a nightmare I’ve seen in film. So eerie and unsettling and disorienting. The sudden shift in location and change of scenery is so accurate. Loved this breakdown!
First comment! Fascinating topic, as a stroke survivor having undergone two brain surgeries I had lots of dreams and hallucinations that felt indistinguishable from reality while in a medically induced coma
Did you know that you were semi permanently stuck in dream land basically? Or is that how it even works, is it more like you have periods of being slightly conscious and aware of external environment and then moments of unconsciousness and dreams?
@@xpaigemonax6113 early on when I was on heavy sedatives and they had me on fentanyl those dreams and hallucinations were so real I thought they’d happened until I got home from the hospital 7.5 months later but in another ICU I was having more hallucinations and would periodically wake up surrounded by doctors looking over me telling me if I didn’t get a central IV in my neck that I would die because I wouldn’t let them I was confused, but unfortunately that was real
I'm impressed you made a video about dreams in movies without mention Akira Kurosawa's Dreams, a movie about the 8 dreams that haunted him.
I recently dreamed that I was myself and had my own thoughts and I was also the person I was interacting with. His thoughts didn't feel like mine but I knew what he was thinking and feeling and i was looking at myself reacting to his thoughts. It was an interesting dream.
Loved this. But tbh I couldn't care less about the dream logic in the film. I mean nobody knows exactly how dreams work in general. Inception, as a film, is pretty much perfect.
Id love to hear him some more
Dreams are literally my favourite topic. I am fascinated with them, and Inceptiom, for obvious reasons, is my favourite movie.
I hope Penguin Books will open a pop-up store in Indonesia
Absolutely will agree with all of these points made and as I do tend to have an almost cinematic scope of dreams, ranging from pleasant to horrific, it did pique my interest to read recently that in our times of smartphones and the likes, we are still failing to incorporate them into our dreamscapes. Much to my dismay, I had to find out that most of these gorgeous scenes from a recent visit to Italy that were supposedly stored on my phone were indeed dreamt up.
I used to use time as a “tell” in dreams to see if I was really awake or not but I learned any “tell” can only last so long. If you do it enough eventually be clocks or watches in a dream will make logical sense - same with any “tell” - it’s almost like exercise, you have to switch it up if it’s expected to work
I also find it so alarming that it’s so rare for adults to have nightmares, they are so constant for me
What if we’re in someone’s dream right now ??
I was reading Otto Rank's the Trauma of Birth and he has something to say about children's fear of small animals. Very interesting.
But in Rushmore, Max isn't doing math in the dream, he's dreaming about having done math. He's failing in that class and he dreams that he can effortlessly scribble on a chalkboard and that it will all be brilliant. Surely, there's a big difference. This is the equivalent to being hungry in a dream, then food magically appearing.
There’s also the movie WAKING LIFE … the hole entire movie is about dreams
Only thing i disagree with is the pain point. Many times ive been dreaming and felt the visceral pain from the things i dream about
Dr. Jandial looks AI generated. The voice is his, but he doesn’t look well. He seems much thinner. I hope he is doing well. Great topic.
Guido!
What's up with his eyes?
Why does he look and sound AI generated?
A lot of Gobley goop
No Paprika? Not impressed
Not happy that the book will not be released until June in the US. 🏜👩🦳🌻🇺🇲
