Daydreams
A daydream is a visionary fantasy experienced while awake, especially one of happy, pleasant thoughts, hopes or ambitions.[1] There are so many different types of daydreaming that there is still no consensus definition amongst psychologists.[1] While daydreams may include fantasies about future scenarios or plans, reminiscences about past experiences, or vivid dream-like images, they are often connected with some type of emotion.
Daydreaming may take the form of a train of thought, leading the daydreamer away from being aware of his or her immediate surroundings, and concentrating more and more on these new directions of thought. To an observer, they may appear to be affecting a blank stare into the distance, and only a sudden stimulus will startle the daydreamer out of their reverie.
Lucid
Dreams
A lucid dream is a dream in which the person is aware that they are dreaming while the dream is in progress, also known as a conscious dream. When the dreamer is lucid, they can actively participate in and often manipulate the imaginary experiences in the dream environment. Lucid dreams can be extremely real and vivid depending on a person's level of self-awareness during the lucid dream.[1]
A lucid dream can begin in one of two ways. A dream-initiated lucid dream (DILD) starts as a normal dream, and the dreamer eventually concludes that they are dreaming, while a wake-initiated lucid dream (WILD) occurs when the dreamer goes from a normal waking state directly into a dream state with no apparent lapse in consciousness.
Nightmares
A
nightmare is a dream which causes a strong unpleasant emotional response from the sleeper, typically fear or horror, being in situations of extreme danger, or the sensations of pain, falling, drowning or death. Such dreams can be related to physical causes such as a high fever, turned faced down on a pillow during sleep (most often in the case of drowning nightmares), or psychological ones such as psychological trauma or stress in the sleeper's life, or can have no apparent cause.
Recurring
Dreams
A recurring dream is a dream which is experienced repeatedly over a long period.
A person who experiences post-traumatic stress disorder may have recurring dreams about the traumatic event.
The subjects of recurring dreams vary, and they often include events or settings from the dreamers' own experiences. The following examples are common:
The sensation of falling
Being held down or otherwise unable to move (compare sleep paralysis)
Nakedness in a public place
Being held back in school or failing a test
Losing teeth or the ability to speak
Drowning, or otherwise not being able to breathe
Like any dream, recurring dreams have invited many interpretations.
Healing
Dreams
Healing
dreams serve as messages for the dreamer in regards to their health. Many
dream experts believe that dreams can help us avoid potential health
problems and help us to heal when we are ill. Our bodies are able to
communicate to us through our dreams to "tell" us that something
is not quite right with our bodies even before any physical symptoms show
up. Dreams of this nature may be telling the dreamer that he/she needs to
go to the dentist or doctor.
Prophetic
Dreams
Prophetic
dreams, also referred to as precognitive or psychic dreams, are dreams
that seemingly foretell the future. One rational theory to explain
this phenomenon is that our dreaming mind is able to piece together bits
of information and observation that we normally overlook or that we do not
seriously consider. In other words, our unconscious mind knows what is
coming before we consciously piece together the same information.

Epic
Dreams
Epic
dreams (also known as Great Dreams or Cosmic Dreams) are so huge, so compelling, and so vivid that you
cannot ignore them. The details of such dreams remain with you for years,
as if your dreamt it last night. These dreams possess much beauty and
contain many archetypal symbology. When you wake up from such a
dream, you feel that you have discovered something profound or amazing
about yourself or about the world. It feels like a life-changing
experience
Remembering Dreams
- Most important step is when you wake up in the morning, don't move from the position you woke up in. That's the position you were dreaming in. You will disconnect your memory from the dream.
- Don't think about what you have to do today. Quiet your mind, and let the dream come back to you. You have 90 seconds before that dream fades away.
- Whatever you remember, even if all you remember is a tiny piece, write it down. Dreaming happens in the same part of our brain where short-term memory is stored and if you don't write it down it will be gone after breakfast.
