Dreams are like this massive metaphor I think and this massive concept in our lives. But surprisingly very little is actually known, very little is known about dreams. We're going to be talking about the psychology of dreams and daydreaming where our mind tends to go when we are both asleep and awake. Some say that dreams are our brains way of sorting through information, of consolidating our memories others say that it's our subconscious coming to the surface. It was Freud who came up with the idea that they are really our repressed desires coming to thesurface.
This week on the podcast we are breaking down the psychology of our dreams - why we dream, the role of our brain, what our dreams mean, repressed desires, nightmares and even the role of daydreaming for our mental wellbeing. If you've ever wondered about your weird dreams, some of the scientific theories and whether you are a maladaptive daydreamer, this episode is for you as we jump into the fascinating science and psychology behind these imaginative, colourful hallucinations.
