Dreams are not merely the succession of visual images, but rather experiences of living in a world of events, actions, and emotions. The Bridge between the Ego and the Subconscious.

Your dreams are the window or doorway to your subconscious.

"But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams." - William Butler Yeats

Dreams are the images, thoughts and feelings experienced while asleep, particularly strongly associated with rapid eye movement sleep. The contents and biological purposes of dreams are not fully understood, though they have been a topic of speculation and interest throughout recorded history.

The widespread belief in the significance of dreams, either as prophecies or divine messages, or as especially valuable indicators of psychological truths, as in the work of Freud and Jung, has considerable cross cultural support. Although actual dreams have a nature and a content that is parasitic upon normal experience, since the things in our dreams are persons and objects of a kind with which we are generally familiar, philosophically dreams have been a convenient image of the possibility of total dissociation between what a subject experiences, and how things are in the real world. Hence they form a central metaphor in epistemology; one of the first questions in philosophy is sometimes posed as ‘How do I know I am not now or always dreaming?’ Dreams also provide a test case for philosophers trying to deny the reality of private experience knowable only to the subject.

Series of thoughts, images, or emotions occurring during sleep, particularly sleep accompanied by rapid eye movement (REM sleep). Dream reports range from the very ordinary and realistic to the fantastic and surreal. Humans have always attached great importance to dreams, which have been variously viewed as windows to the sacred, the past and the future, or the world of the dead. Dreams have provided creative solutions to intellectual and emotional problems and have offered ideas for artistic pursuits. A type of cognitive synthesis that facilitates conscious insight may occur subconsciously during dreaming. The most famous theory of the significance of dreams is the psychoanalytic model of Sigmund Freud; in Freud's view, desires that are ordinarily repressed (hidden from consciousness) because they represent forbidden impulses are given expression in dreams, though often in disguised (i.e., symbolic) form.

In our dreams, we can go anywhere, we can be anybody, and we can do anything. Visions and ideas can come from your dreams. Authors, screenwriters and poets turn to their dreams for stories. Artists and musicians explore dreams for their inspiration. Dreams can help us find solutions to our daily problems and see things from a different perspective.

Every dream has many layers of meaning. Every object, person, and situation in a dream may have many meanings. So take your time in trying to understand it. Think of your dream as something to EXPLORE. You have to look at it from different angles, walk around in it for awhile, work with it - and then its many meanings will begin to reveal themselves.

 ¨     Your dreams are no casual accident. Your dreams are an index to your greatness!

¨      An insight to the importance of your Sleep cycle. It is the time when the body's immune system goes to work on repairing the day's damage, the endocrine glands secrete growth hormones and blood is sent to the muscles to be reconditioned. Your mind is being revitalized and emotions are being fine tuned.

¨      Dream symbols are the language that the subconscious mind uses to tell a story or convey a message in a dream. As with any language, their meaning is not always obvious and they must be translated using common sense, intuition, and an element of imagination.

¨      The Mechanics of Dreaming and noticeable body changes.

¨      The Importance of Dreaming and its role in our well-being and health.

¨      Daydreams, Positive daydreaming is healthy. It serves as a temporary escape from the demands of reality.
Learn why!

¨      Insights to Lucid Dreams and the ability to control your own dreams. Lets face it.  Life is not a bed of roses. There are hurdles to get over and mountains to climb. We can use it as a tool to improve our sports game, to rehearse a speech, to fulfill our fantasies, or to solve a problem in our waking life. Is a dream reality till you wake up?

¨     Healing Dreams that have messages about health.

¨      Nightmares, an indication of a fear that needs to be acknowledged and confronted.

¨      Recurring dreams, because a conflict remains unresolved or ignored.

¨      Look beyond the obvious—A dream is often about something other than its obvious meaning. Physical events in the dream commonly represent mental or emotional matters. There's more than one way to do something.

¨     Prophetic Dreams often links unconnected information.

¨     Remembering Dreams, remembering your dreams can help you come to terms with stressful aspects of your lives and frequently accesses forgotten information.

1. One-third of your lives is spent sleeping.

2. In an average  lifetime, you would have spent a total of about six years of it dreaming. That is more than 2,100 days spent in a different realm!

3. Dreams have been here as long as mankind.  Back in the Roman Era, striking and significant dreams were submitted to the Senate for analysis and interpretation.

4. Everybody dreams. EVERYBODY! Simply because you do not remember your dream does not mean that you do not dream.

5. Dreams are indispensable.  A lack of dream activity can mean protein deficiency or a personality disorder.

6. We dream on average of one or two hours every night. And we often even have 4-7 dreams in one night.

7. Blind people do dream.  Whether visual images will appear in their dream depends on  whether they where blind at birth or became blind later in life. But vision is not the only sense that constitutes a dream. Sounds, tactility, and smell become hypersensitive for the blind and their dreams are based on these senses. 

8. Five minutes after the end of the dream, half the content is forgotten. After ten minutes, 90% is lost.

All these and much more.

'It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live, remember that. — J.K. Rowling.

Just be objective and give it a try.
You do not need to believe in dreaming to benefit from the knowledge. Just sleep on it.

“The problems of the world cannot be solved by skeptics or cynics whose horizons are limited by the obvious realities. We need people who can dream of things that never were.”  John F. Kennedy

Dreams hold no boundaries when it comes to the possibilities that life brings...
Behind every dream come true, and vision fulfilled, there is an incredibly stubborn person.

Never limit your dreams to only what you can see becoming reality. 
The universe has infinite ways of bringing desires into fruition,
once you allow the possibility by removing your limitations.
