For those who study dreams, this report may be an important piece of information.

According to a recent research conducted by experts, catnaps or short term sleeps may help one’s memory or for one’s brain to function more effectively. In a way, it reboots one’s brain.

This development was explained by CBS News Medical Correspondent Dr. Jennifer Ashton during the “Early Show” program.

Thirty-nine respondents took part in the study and it has been discovered that short naps aid them in memory exercises. The respondents who napped performed 20 percent better than those who did not.

The researchers believed that a part of the brain called the hippocampus – storage of short-term memories – tends to be rebooted during these short naps. This leads to the brain making room for new information and learning.

This development may be good for students who are preparing for an exam, that sleep can actually improve their studying because more information relevant to the exam can be stored in their brains.

It’s always believed that when it comes to interpretation of dreams, this should be done in a scientific method that was discovered by Carl Jung. However, it is a given fact that not all of the people know this and that in some ways we also have similar dreams. This may not translate to similar dream meanings.

Countless books have been produced in an attempt to interpret our dreams. But so far, the definitions have been generic – describing how the symbols that we see may mean in general.

However, experts believe that the scientific method approach shows an objective view of the images that we see in the dream. For some instances, the images that we see may have something to do with our daily routines, such as getting out of bed in our lingerie while for others this does not apply.

One things for sure, for us dreamers, it is up to us whether we act up on what we interpret on the dream or just dismiss such for now.
