Learn Meaning Behind Dreams For A Happier Life By Sarah Sheffington
Have you ever had the same dream over and over?
Perhaps a nightmare that haunts your sleep?
Or perhaps you dream of lying on a beautiful beach watching the waves roll in?
Have you ever wondered if the meaning behind dreams plays a role in your everyday life?
Throughout history, many people have relied on the interpretation of their dreams to guide their daily lives.
Medicine men, tribal leaders, writers, composers, presidents, and priests.
The ones that could learn the meaning behind dreams became advisors to important people and were held in high esteem by everyone.
In some cases, these interpreters were thought to have been granted special powers by the gods.
Would it have an impact on your daily life if you could learn to interpret your dreams?
Learning to interpret your dreams could give you a deeper look at the real you, which could give you an insight into thoughts you would like to be different or the things about yourself that you would like to enhance in order to live your life to the fullest.
A dream allows your brain to process information stored in your unconscious mind each day.
Even though you are consciously alert to the most important things going on around you, there are things happening in the background that your brain does not analyze immediately.
This data is stored in your subconscious until your brain has a chance to analyze the data that we consciously miss during our waking hours.
Let's try a little experiment.
Suppose you are sitting at your desk typing a letter.
Your brain is concentrating on the words you are writing.
But, try to imagine the sounds around you.
There is all sorts of action occurring in the background - perhaps a CD is running in the background, a dog is barking, people talking all around you, your fingers dance across the keyboard, your computer is running.
All of these things are happening simultaneously, but all you are aware of is what you are typing. Now, let's take the scene one step further.
What if one of the people talking in the background is your teenager - on the phone with a friend making plans for Friday night.
You recognize your child's voice in the background, but not consciously aware of is being said.
Everything that occurred in the background while you concentrated on typing the letter are stored in your subconscious.
Tonight, when you sleep, your brain brings up the data stored in the subconscious mind and brings it to the forefront in order to analyze the information.
So, if you dream of a wreck involving alcohol, this could be a warning that you may need to take a closer look at your teenager's plans.
Sometimes things are not this clear cut.
And, that is why it can be important to learn the meaning behind dreams.
Most of the time, the event or character will be symbolic - for instance, think of a lion.
What thoughts are usually associated with a lion?
King of the jungle, perhaps?
A lion often makes you think of strength, power, and even aggression.
A lion can also represent leadership, royalty or pride.
The interpretation of a dream involving a lion can depend upon the actions involving the lion.
Perhaps you are being attacked by a lion - this could be an indication that you will be facing obstacles in the near future. (And, anyone with teenagers knows this to be true!).
Learning to analyze your dreams can aid you in making decisions in your real life, can help you give you a better insight into the real you, and can even warn you of impending health problems.
Some people believe that if you can learn the meaning behind dreams, you will be able to attain a unity between mind, body, and spirit and achieve the happiness that you desire.
