But really, why can a snoring person wake up the whole house, but at the same time sleep like a baby?

This is another mystery of the human brain that allows you to sleep soundly, but at the same time disturb the sleep of those around you.

Scientists worked on the problem. They found out that snoring can exceed 110 dB, while a jackhammer produces noise up to 120 dB.

It is simply impossible to sleep in such a din, but the snorer does not open his eyes.

Do people hear their own snoring?

The brain is designed in such a way that it can not only not smell smells in a dream, but also not hear a particular noise.

But this applies exclusively to routine, that is, to what the brain does not perceive as an irritant or a threat, and therefore does not intend to process.

But at the same time, the brain continues to control the situation and analyze sounds.

That is, a loud snorer may wake up if someone talks loudly in the room or from another loud sound.

But this sound should sound like a danger signal to the brain.

Your own snoring, even very loud, has nothing to do with it.
