I had a miscarriage last month. I had the most vivid dream a couple weeks later, that I walked in to pick up my baby from the daycare I used to work at. I didn’t see a face but was called to my baby because I instantly spotted the onesie I had bought when I found out about the pregnancy. I see a baby wearing that onesie tucked into leggings and I and go to pick them up, I felt their weight in my arms, smelled the newborn smell of their precious skin. As soon as that happened, I woke up. It was so vivid and It felt so magical and SO REAL. The peace I felt was indescribable like my entire life aligned at once. Like I was looking at a completely finished, beautiful puzzle.

I had a dream that I was speaking in a different language and the conversation made sense. Often my dreams are more intelligent than I am in reality. I'd love to be a part if a sleep study. I've also dreamt of songs which I've never heard before and wake up trying to remember. Such a beautiful song.

I had a lucid dream that my dog climbed into bed to cuddle next to me. The sensation of him woke me and I looked at him and held him close but as I held him logic seeped into my thought as I remembered that my dog was no longer alive. As that thought washed over me my dog dissipated and I lost the lucid awareness and then shortly awoke with the deep feeling that my dog was actually in my arms just moments ago

[toriscott]

This conversation leads me to think that tv, videos, and screens possibly detract from what dreams can do for us in life!

[Mcmajor]

Sometimes I can't wait to go to sleep to see what I will dream. 😎✌️🦋

In my early 20s, I decided to go to therapy. She was the most amazing therapist I ever encountered, and one of the first things she taught me was how to remember to my dreams. Since then I have experienced lucid, vivid, epic, brief, recurrent, realistic, and surreal while able to recall many of them! I wish more therapists would incorporate dream analysis into their practices. Dreams are the windows to your soul and taught me much about myself ❤

[rudirhein]

Some Dreams are so draining that sometimes I need all the next day to recover.

[ptinxbw]

When he said u sleep bc u must dream, felt so validated. I have been doing that since childhood. I have also started dream journal. I only sleep so that i can dream. I love my dreams, also lately my dreams have been giving answers to my life problems.

56:15. "...the luxury of a bed and such a humbling reminder 🤯😢

[igwxxql]

The best Dreams is flying like a bird high in the sky.

[founderofcoreism]

I lucid dream and studied dreams for 7 years. Pay attention to your dreams. It's another world more connected to the real, versus the matrix.

[bonniemattocks]

Dr. Rahul Jandial's brain is working on so many levels, that he can't get the words out fast enough for us to understand all that he knows. He has thoughts that he starts that I feel he wants to answer on three different levels, but he's trying to keep it coherent for all of us.

Dreaming being the reason for sleep is an ancient belief in many ancient African religions. Im happy science is catching up.

[lmonnette]

I am almost 70. I had no idea other people do not always dream in My husband told him he felt his dreams are basically thoughts! I have dreams like movies....doesn't everyone? I remember color of the clothes people wear. I don't dream every night but when I do it's hard to remember the entire dream. I remember bits and pieces. Sometimes I wake up and then go back to sleep and seem to dream again. I love to dream as long as it isn't scary, which I don't seem to have.

[etandrepont]

I’ve steared my dreams. I’ve had sleep paralysis, I’ve had premonitions in my dreams. I’ve been consciously aware of my dream.

[dmgt]

A doctor and neuroscientist who is capable of explaining everything with such clarity. Love it

[caitlynnp]

I've been remember my 1-4 of my dreams everyday since the age of 5. I'm 31 now. My dreams are often very action adventure apocalyptic dystopian and/or magical. I am very strong and quite often have powers, flying being the most common and easiest. I can fly at will in any dream if I'm bored. I love my dreams. I'm very thankful for them.

[djmcmenus]

I often dream in German. I was adopted from an orphanage in East Germany. When I am awake, I have a very hard time being able to recall my native tongue, but when I dream, it's like I never learned English. I wake up upset that I can't speak German in my waking life. It's a weird feeling. I was five when I was adopted by my American parents. I knew zero English then.

[lisabarder]

I love Dr. Rahul's quest to unravel the mystery of our dreams. Personally, I wish I had more flying dreams. Whenever I dream of flying, I wake up the next day feeling spectacular and having an incredible day!
