| What is the meaning of the dreams you have on your
memory foam mattress topper? The meaning of dreams
Ever since Freud published ‘The Interpretation of Dreams’
scientists and analysts have tried to discover why we dream.
Freud talked of ‘wish fulfilment’, suggesting that we live
out our deepest fantasies when we dream, and another theory
is ‘the dream day’ – every dream has its source in something
we saw, heard or thought about the previous day. Experts in
psychoanalysis and neuro-science generally agree that the
dreams you have on your memory foam mattress topper have
both an emotional and a biological purpose.
Shared dreams
Researchers around the world have found that human beings
tend to dream the same kinds of dreams on their memory foam
mattress toppers, although with subtle differences. Men, for
instance, tend to be more aggressive in their dreams,
particularly with other men, and women tend to dream of
interactions with friends. But most of our dreams are
unpleasant. We also dream a lot more than we remember. On
average, we dream about five times a night, but people tend
to remember only about one to two dreams a week.
Common dreams
The most common dreams are of falling, flying, being naked
in public, and having an accident. Some dreams can be so
frightening that we wake up on our memory foam mattress
toppers in a cold sweat. That includes the most common of
all human dreams, the dream of being chased.
Purpose of dreams
There are differing views on what the purpose of dreams may
be. Some believe dreams serve no purpose at all, while
others believe they can help people understand their
subconscious thought possesses to overcome psychological
difficulties. Carl Jung for instance, believed that dreams
help us compensate for the parts in our ‘total personality’
that are underdeveloped in our waking life.
Another theory is that dreams help us solve problems we are
currently dealing with in our lives, especially emotional
problems. Much has been written about what different dreams
mean, but rarely does the dreamer wake up in his or her
memory foam mattress topper with a plausible solution to a
problem because dreams are so apparently random.
Sweet dreams
One hypothesis for sleep-related rhythms is that they are
the brain's way of disconnecting the cortex from sensory
input. When we are asleep, thalamic neurons prevent
penetration of sensory information upward to the cortex.
This gives the cortex a bit of a rest and explains why
people who suffer sleep deprivation suffer a loss of
critical thinking abilities and are prone to poor judgment.
Another hypothesis is that dreaming plays a role in memory
processing, especially with emotional memories.
Whatever the reason for our dreams, make them sweeter with a
memory foam mattress topper.
