TAKING CONTROL OF YOUR NIGHTMARES
(1) Dreams and dreaming have always been a mystery to most people. As we dream, a
window opens into a world where logic is suspended. A century ago, the famous psychologist,
Sigmund Freud, formulated his theory that dreams were the disguised emotions of our unconscious
desires and fears" Now, clinical neurologists, such as Dr. Rosalind Cartwright of Boston University,
believe that dreams are highly emotional, intensively powerful mental events. She firmly believes tha
dreams can be brought under conscious control, to help us sleep and feel better. "It's your dream,"
she says, "If you don't like it, you can change it.
(2) Evidence from brain studies shows a powerful correlation between dreams and emotions
The brain is just as active during early sleeping hours, when the most powerful dreams occur, as it
when fully awake. But not all parts of the brain are equally involved in the development of dreams
The limbic system (the emotional part of the brain) is especially active during dreams, while the
prefrontal cortex (the reasoning part of the brain) is quiet. So, "the limbic system controls whether w
wake up from our dreams happy or depressed", says Stanford sleep researcher, Dr. William Demem
(3)The process of dreaming does not have to be left to the unconscious, Dr. Cartwright state
She feels strongly that a person can develop conscious control over repeated bad dreams, and
suggests the following technique to control bad dreams. First, identify what is upsetting about the
dream. Secondly, visualize how you would like the dream to end instead. Then, the next time a bac
dream occurs, try to wake up just enough to control where the dream is taking you. With much
ractice people can learn to, literally, control their dreams in their sleep.
(4) The most important thing to remember is that we don't have to pay much attention to ou
ams unless they keep us from sleeping, Dr. Cartwright says. People who do have persistent
mares, however, should seek help from a therapist. But, for the rest of us, the brain has its wa
erking through bad feelings.
