About Dream

 


  We do believe everybody has a dream while sleeping. It could be a beautiful dream, sad dream, or fortune dream. We spend roughly one-third of our lives sleeping and during that time, we dream. Some researchers believe they have symbolic meaning, while others believe that dreams are related to waking life. 

  Dreams are thoughts, images, or feelings that occur during sleep. Visual imagery is the most common, but dreams can involve all of the senses. Some people dream in colour while others dream in black and white, and people who are blind tend to have more dream components related to sound, taste, and smell. Dreams can happen at any time during sleep. But you have the most vivid dreams during a phase called REM or rapid eye movement sleep when your brain is most active.

  Researchers have found some differences between men and women when it comes to the content of their dreams. Men and women dream differently. It showed that men's dreams tend to have more aggressive content and physical activity, while women's dreams contain more rejection and exclusion, as well as more conversation than physical activity. 

  The most unfortunate about dreams are hard to remember. It could be harder to remember dreams because, during REM sleep, our body may shut down systems in our brain that create memories. We may remember only dream that happen before we wake when certain brain activities are turned back on. Some say it's not that our minds forget dreams but that we don't know how to access them. Dreams may be stored in our memory, waiting to be recalled. This may explain why you suddenly remember a dream later in the day.

  Why do we dream? There are many theories about why we dream, but no one knows for sure. Studies have looked into the importance of dreams to our health and well-being. They found that those who weren't allowed to dream had anxiety, depression, or more tension. Many experts say dreams exist to process emotions, incorporate memories and help solve problems in our lives. That's why if we go to bed with troubling thoughts, we may make a solution or at least feel better about the situation. 

  Dreams have fascinated humanity since the beginning of time and will probably continue to puzzle us. Science has allowed us to learn much about the human brain, but until today we may never know for sure the meanings behind our dreams. Hopefully, you are learning something new from this article. Thank you for your time and have a nice day 😀.

Leader Vs Boss

    Some people might use the terms "boss" and "leader" interchangeably, but that's not entirely accurate. The truth is, some bosses are simply a boss. They have attained a position in the management section of the corporate pyramid. Those positions alone don't make them leaders. They are just pushing their employers while "sitting down". However, bosses can become leaders, and doing so should become a priority for those who want to effectively lead in the workplace. So, what is the difference between a leader and a boss?   A boss refers to an individual who is in charge of the employee or an organisation. He exercises control over employees, assigns tasks, and duties to them, and is entitled to take decisions on some matters. There is no formal title like "boss" in the organisational chart, but the term indicates a person who is the owner or appointed as head of the organisation, department, or division.   On the other hand, the term lea

About Phubbing

    In the Digital Era, smartphones have become the number one priority in society. When it comes to our smartphones, nothing else in our lives gets as much attention. A single notification can branch to half days only checking the status or short videos on social media. If we lose it, the stress starts to build up rapidly. Getting by without a smartphone really is not possible anymore, and from that other areas of our lives are bound to be affected.   Phubbing describes the act of "phone-snubbing". It is a term that most people might not be familiar with, but the action is certainly one we all recognise. If we are going outside let's say, how often have we been physically in the presence of someone, but they're emotionally "not there" because they are absorbed in their smartphone? Quite a lot, isn't it?   Smartphones and text messaging help partners display love and affection to each other when they are physically apart. However, what happens when smart

Early Birds and Night Owls

  In this world, there are two kinds of people in this world, people who love to hear birds chirping in the morning, and people who wish the birds had a mute button somewhere. Someone likes the sun going up, someone likes the sun drowning to keep the night up. In other words, early birds and night owls. So, which one are you?    Early birds or morning people. They are awake in the morning and love to welcome the new day. Early birds tend to go to bed early, wake up early, and feel their best as the day begins. As a general rule, early birds find a society more accommodating than night owls do. Early birds generally have an easier time adjusting to standard daytime schedules.    On the other hand, night owls or night people tend to stay up late, enjoy sleeping in, have more energy at night, and feel tired after waking up early. Night owls do have a few downsides. They might have a harder time holding a traditional job. Young night owls might have trouble making a fixed school or univers
