As we have seen in our Dream Dictionary, its interpretation is important when it comes to knowing ourselves better, to understand ourselves a little more and to understand how and why we react in a certain way in our day to day. And, of course, the meaning of dreams is a good meter of our emotional state and the impact that emotions have on our lives. But of course, to be able to interpret a dream before you have to remember it, right? In Diario Muemino we consider why sometimes we do not remember what we dream and other times yes.
What we dream is in our spotlight for that mystery that surrounds the dream experiences. Will they be premonitions, divine signs or visions of the future? At this point we already know that it is not about that and that the meaning of dreams is valuable, so it can contribute to our personal development.
The interpretation of dreams helps us to meet better; We can point out a conflict that, deep down, we already knew but we did not dare to recognize; We can direct the focus of attention to a specific field of our life to make improvements and, in addition, it can alert us of emotional problems so that we can solve them as soon as possible.
Dreams also give us energy and strength, they help us overcome obstacles and overcome ourselves. Dreams of well -being that awaken with an extra dose of security and tranquility, party dreams that encourage us for the whole day. Or even the worst nightmares that help us plant our fears. Because all dreams have their interpretation and all interpretation can be very useful.
Seeing dreams as another tool for our personal development makes us ask ourselves, what happens to people who don’t dream? Why don’t those people have the luck to find the keys to their emotional life while they sleep? Why do some people say they don’t dream? The truth is that we all dream.
We all have dreams and experts say that we have 5 dreams every night, what happens is that we do not remember them all and, some people do not remember any. What a bad luck! Because the truth is that from our Dream Dictionary we have discovered how useful dreams are to improve in our day to day and to find the path of well -being. So why don’t we remember what we dream of?
The vast majority of people know that they dream and can remember some of those dreams. And we always ask ourselves the same question: why sometimes I don’t remember dreams and sometimes? Why have I had to remember just that horrible nightmare and not any precious and positive dream? Maybe because the emotional burden of the nightmare was greater and because its information was more useful and urgent.
Surely you will have heard about the phases of the sleep. They are important to understand why we sometimes do not remember dreams and sometimes yes. They say that dreams occur in the REM phase, a time when our brain is in rest mode but not stopped, that I never stop. Our brain never rests. If we reveal a little at the end of that ReM phase is when we can remember the dream.
A dream that usually fades the next morning. Because we will go back to sleep, we will have another dream again and it is not certain that from this second dream we remember. What is certain that if we do not point to what we have dreamed of, it will vanitate. Because? Because, as we say, the brain is in rest mode and the hypothalamus is busy working on other things.
We have reached the hypothalamus, a very interesting place of our brain that is the one that deals with processing our short memory and long term. The hypothalamus is in full task while we sleep and takes care of eliminating the information of the day that does not interest to remember, although when selecting those memories it does not have the same criteria as ourselves.
So when we wake up just when we are having a dream, we can remember it, but not when we wake up, since by then the hypothalamus has selected it as a memory to eliminate by being part of our dream activity and not of our real life.
And if we remember any dream the next morning or even those repetitive dreams that we do not manage to forget and that they have us turning their interpretation for several days, it is because that dream contains important information or a great emotional load that we can take advantage of. It is then that it is time to understand your interpretation.
And you? Do you often remember what you have dreamed of or when you wake up you have already forgotten? Tell us your dream experiences and we will help you interpret them. Do not miss the opportunity to know the message that your dreams send you!
