The author of the best selling children’s book “Pages, The Book-Maker Elf” revealed that she came across the book characters from her own dream. She added that it prompted her to continue with her dream research in order to polish the book.

New York-based dream expert Lauren Lawrence recently shared her interpretation of a confusing dream by a reader who thinks that her boyfriend is not yet ready to commit to her.

One of the readers stated that in her dream, she and her boyfriend attended a wedding where they didn’t know the couple. The scene changed an infant fell into a deep pool of holy water but since she could not move her arm, her boyfriend jumped into the pool and saved the baby.

According to Lawrence, the jumping into the holy water in a church means rebirth or baptism.  She added that this could mean that the infant represented the dreamer and that the boyfriend was the one who saved her which could mean that he’s now ready to commit to a relationship with the dreamer. This is a good sign leading to a possible marriage in the future.

A man suffering from a rare sleeping disorder reportedly killed his wife during one of his nightmare dreams after he decided not to continue with his antidepressants.

According to reports, the man believed that the medications were affecting their sex life which led him to discontinue the process.
59-year old Brian Thomas strangled his wife, 57-year old Christine while they spent their holidays in Wales.

Court documents revealed that Thomas stopped taking three drugs, including one which controls his vivid dreams.

Prescription drugs expert Dr. Paul Skett said that Thomas would experience nightmares if he won’t continue taking drugs. One of the antidepressants is said to control Parkinson’s Disease while one of the drugs stops rapid eye movement sleep.

The defendant is seeking a not guilty verdict because of “insane automatism.” The defense attorneys stressed that the marriage lasted 39 years and there’s really no reason why Thomas would maliciously kill his wife.

The quest to find the meaning of dreams continues to fascinate everyone, regardless of age of gender. After all, there’s this unavoidable yearning to know if the images seen during sleep have significant meaning when it comes to daily living. There are different approaches on dealing with the dreams based on how it was interpreted by the dreamer.

A new study by sleep expert Allan Hobson came out recently wherein the expert stated that one of the main functions of these dreams that dreamers encounter is that it tunes up the brain for day – whether at work or home. These findings have caught some criticisms from others because it portrays the dreamers as “self-deluding.” Hobson has also stated in his study that dreaming is “a parallel state of consciousness.”

Despite these findings, at the end of the day it is the dreamer who will be dealing with these images and if something positive can be done out of the meaning of dreams. One thing is for sure if you will have a more comfortable sleep if you wear comfy nightwear and have comfy sheets.
