What can we do to always have pleasant dreams? Apparently we cannot control what we dream of, right? Except for exceptional cases where paranormal events come into play, we get into bed waiting for the dream lottery, that is, we have no idea what will touch us tonight. Maybe let’s dream of paradise or may we go directly to the hell of nightmares. But we ask ourselves, can you program what we are going to dream? Discover the answer in our Dream Dictionary.
There are many studies that confirm that a certain mood and some habits favor the appearance of nightmares. That is why experts recommend paying more attention to the habits we make in the second part of the day. If the goal is to have pleasant and pleasant dreams, take note of those advice:
+ The strong point of correct sleep hygiene is schedule. Go to bed and wake up at the same time is the only way to regulate the sleep cycle and get the night rest we need.
+ A positive and optimistic mentality, but also calm, favor pleasant dreams. If you feel fatalistic, you are more likely to have violent or distressing dreams.
+ Tranquility and mental peace are difficult to achieve, but the first advice is to avoid exciting drinks such as coffee, tea and soft drinks from mid -afternoon.
+ Alcohol is the number one enemy of your quiet dreams. If you intend to have dream experiences closer to a ZEN state than to a police persecution, it will be better that alcoholic beverages are not among your habits.
+ To get a quiet and relaxed dream it is necessary to reduce stimuli at the last minute. TV, even if it is the most common activity we do before sleeping, is not the best companion of dreams.
+ Late dinners favor dreams with disasters or misfortunes, so you better eat something light about three hours before going to sleep.
+ Before getting in bed you can try the typical grandmothers remedy to drink a glass of temperate milk. It helps to have calmer dreams.
With this change in habits we will have more quieter nights and more night rest but, is it possible to choose what we dream of? It would be very interesting to be able to program what we are going to dream in the same way that we program our daily activities, but experience tells us that we have no control over our dreams. What if we have not tried enough?
Visualize what you want to dream
There is a simple exercise that we can do every night when we go to bed to have pleasant dreams. It’s about getting into bed and practicing some breathing exercise. And now, what do you want to dream? Imagine sitting comfortably reading a book on the seashore, without heat or cold, the perfect temperature and the sound of the waves against the rocks. Everything is perfect, you can visualize it and maybe you can dream it.
Take away your dreams
But what causes bad dreams are daily concerns, those that assault you when you are about to fall asleep. If you want to have pleasant dreams, you will have to leave the concerns aside, keep them well hidden (they will return tomorrow) and that is something you can also get with a visualization exercise. Imagine: collect all those concerns that are flying for your mind, guide them in a box and close with chains, locks and keys.
To try we do not lose anything. Visualize what we want to dream of all detail, choosing the sounds, colors and even smells can favor certain types of dreams, but the last word will always have our subconscious.
And you, what do you want to dream tonight?
