Brain region that regulates circadian rhythms.

Different levels of sleep, from light to deep.

Deep sleep stage, restoring body and mind.

Not getting enough sleep.

Natural cycle of sleeping and waking.

Electrical patterns of activity in the brain.

Sleep stages 1 to 4, without rapid eye movements, less dreaming, and varied EEG activity.

Getting significantly less sleep than usual.

Chronic difficulty in getting adequate sleep.

Sudden and irresistible onsets of sleep during normal waking periods.

Frequent reflexive gasping for air during sleep due to stopping breathing for at least ten seconds.

Anxiety-arousing dreams that lead to awakening, usually from REM sleep.

A brain structure influencing physiological arousal and regulating sleep-wake cycles.

A systematic procedure that leads to a heightened state of suggestibility, characterized by passive relaxation, narrowed attention, and enhanced fantasy.

Four main effects observed during hypnosis: anesthesia, sensory distortions/hallucinations, disinhibition, and posthypnotic suggestions/amnesia.

The ability to withstand pain during hypnotic sessions, allowing for treatments that would normally be painful.

Experiencing altered or false perceptions (auditory or visual) while under hypnosis.

Reduced inhibitions under hypnosis, leading to actions that might not be performed otherwise.

Hypnotic suggestions that influence later behavior, and sometimes a temporary loss of memory of events during hypnosis.

Suggests hypnosis arises from normal psychological processes, not a separate trance state, influenced by expectations.

Hypnosis is a unique mental state characterized by dissociation; a split in awareness.

Meditation helps reduce blood pressure, improve focus, boost self-esteem, enhance cognitive flexibility, increase relationship satisfaction, improve mood, self-control, and happiness, and promote cardiovascular health, better sleep, and overall physical wellbeing.

Meditation helps reduce the effects of stress, decrease stress hormones, and enhance the immune response.

Meditation improves mental health by reducing anxiety and drug use.

Meditation can lead to increases in empathy, compassion, and counselling skills.

A psychoactive drug is a chemical substance that alters mental, emotional, or behavioral functioning, often producing pleasurable changes in consciousness.

Narcotics, also known as opiates, are drugs derived from opium that have pain-relieving properties, such as heroin and morphine. They have high potential for both physical and mental dependence.

Stimulants increase central nervous system activation and behavioral activity. They range in potency from mild (caffeine, nicotine) to stronger (cocaine).

Hallucinogens powerfully impact mental and emotional functioning, primarily causing distortions in sensory and perceptual experiences. Examples include LSD, which can induce euphoria and dreamlike states. They have very low potential for mental dependence.
