Do you ever wake up from a dream and wonder: What did that mean? Or maybe you’ve had a nightmare and asked yourself: Why did I dream that? Could I stop it? Is my brain trying to tell me something? Maybe you keep having the same dream over and over again. Or maybe you’re the person who says, “I don’t dream.” According to today’s expert, you’re wrong. We all dream. And once you understand what your brain is doing while you’re dreaming, you’ll never think about sleep, your mind, or what’s possible in the same way again.
