The Contemporary Theory of Dreaming

July 16, 2006 5:02 pm

Sometimes we remember, sometimes we don’t, but we all love to dream.  Or is that a gross generalization?  I love to dream, since my dreams are some of the most exciting adventures I have.  Don’t get me wrong, my waking life is pretty awesome, but it doesn’t hold a candle to my dreams in terms of sheer adventure and excitement.  However, I know that it’s not the same for everyone - there are many people that I know who would almost prefer not to dream based on their typical dream content (stressful dreams full of anxiety).  So, why do we dream?

Scientific American: Why do we dream?

(correlary - how do we control our dreams?)
