When we sleep, we progress through Rapid Eye Movement (REM) for vivid dreams and non-REM stages for restful recovery.
During sleep, the brain remains highly active, processing memories, emotions, and experiences, which can manifest as dreams and even aid in problem solving.
Rapid Eye Movement sleep boosts brain function and healing while preventing movement, so we don’t act out dreams.
Lucid dreaming is the practice of becoming aware of and controlling one's dreams. It helps combines consciousness with the dream state.
Dreams may serve various purposes, including emotional regulation, memory processing, and creativity enhancement.
Sleep disorders, like nightmares or sleep paralysis, can disrupt the normal dreaming process, affecting overall sleep quality and emotional health.
