What is a dream?

Dreams are multisensorial conscious experiences during sleep and are by nature subjective. Dreaming is part of real life as is waking life. To dream is finding personal time for potentially expanding consciousness.

When we dream?

Most people spend an average of two hours in the dream world each night. Although dreams can occur at any point in the sleep cycle, the most vivid and intense of these are usually experienced during the rapid eye movement (REM) phase.

Why we dream?

-To help solve problems, to see things from a different perspective. 

Dreams can provide fresh insights that we wouldn’t be able to see while awake.They are responsible for those moments of inspiration that lead to breakthroughs. 

-To boost performance and creativity: to prepare for the real life. Dreams offer people a hallucinatory narrative that serves to improve cognitive performance and boost creativity during waking hours. 

-To navigate through emotions, whether to remember or forget. Dreams can act as a form of overnight therapy, helping us to process our waking feelings.
