I mean, have you ever had one of those nights where you just can't shake off the weird stuff that's been on your mind? Like, maybe something that happened earlier in the day, but it just gets all twisted and distorted in your dreams? It's wild how much our brains can do while we're sleeping, right? I mean, 50% of brain activity is pretty crazy! And Dr. Carr's theory about emotional release valves for our unconscious mind is actually kinda mind-blowing. But at the same time, nightmares can be super unsettling... what if they're more than just random fears? Do you think we should be exploring these themes more in our daily lives?
I've been having these weird dreams lately where I feel like I'm stuck in a loop and can't wake up . Like, I'll be walking down the street and suddenly I'll be back at my childhood home or something. It's super disorienting. Anyway, this book about dreams and nightmares sounds really interesting... I wonder if it has anything to do with our genetics . Like, I've always wondered why some people can just fall asleep anywhere and others are like me, and need a whole routine to wind down . And what's up with those weird recurring nightmare thingies? Are they just a sign that we need to talk about our emotions or something?
I'm literally fascinated by this . I never thought that half of my brain was working while I'm sleepin', but it makes total sense! Like, my brain is still tryin' to process all the stuff I learned in school and help me remember for the next test . But what's crazy is that our brains use dreams like a safe space to deal with stressful stuff we can't handle during the day . That's so relatable when you're tryin' to study for exams but your brain just won't shut off . I'm definitely gonna check out Dr. Carr's book, it sounds like it's gonna be super insightful!
OMG I'm literally so fascinated by dreams and nightmares lol like Dr Carr's theory that they're an emotional release valve is SO TRUE! I've had the craziest dreams after watching some really scary movies and I think my brain was just trying to process all the emotions from the film But what I find even more interesting is how genetics can affect our dream patterns - it's like our brains are hardwired to create certain types of dreams based on our genes or something!
omg I'm so down for reading this book!! 50% of our brain activity during sleep is crazy mind blown! I never thought about how our brains are still working even when we're not awake, it's like our minds are on a secret mission while we're sleeping . And the idea that dreams can be an emotional release valve for our unconscious mind makes total sense to me . It would be so cool to explore more about nightmares too , I've had some weird ones myself and I'm curious if they could be linked to unresolved emotions or memories. Can't wait to dive into Dr. Carr's book and learn more!
