Prof. Edmonds refers to fleeting perceptual experiences that occur during the transition from wakefulness to sleep (hypnagogic hallucinations) and from sleep to wakefulness (hypnopompic hallucinations). They mention “hypnagogic” when they mean to say “hypnopompic”. More on this research from the NIH at: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4988750/#:~:text=This%20term%20refers%20to%20fleeting,to%20wakefulness%20(hypnopompic%20hallucinations).&text=They%20are%20involuntary%2C%20spontaneous%2C%20of,70%25%20of%20the%20general%20population.

Love and fear were forged by the same fundamental evolutionary processes that permitted life on Earth. Both love and fear are deeply interwoven with the adaptive management of stress and disease. Love and fear share common roots and both can play a role in reproduction, survival, perceived safety and wellbeing. This special issue of Comprehensive Psychoneuroendocrinology focuses specifically on the causes and consequences of love from the interactive perspectives of evolution, neurobiology and culture. C.

sonder - n. the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own. Narrated, written, directed, edited and coined by John Koenig. From THE DICTIONARY OF OBSCURE SORROWS. The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows is a compendium of invented words written by John Koenig. Each original definition aims to fill a hole in the language—to give a name to emotions we all might experience but don’t yet have a word for. Follow the project, give feedback, suggest an emotion you need a word for, or just tell me about your day.
