Thank you for your links

Hello, I have. 3 years ago I finished a research about children's dreams content analysis (6-8 years). I published it only in Czech Language but I wrote a paper about it for one international students' award in English. If you are interested, I can upload it to my profile and you can read it. Let me know.

A couple of minutes ago this article on nightmare research

appeared on Eurekalert.

dear Lucie i will be thankful if you send it for me

Dear Mozghan, after many years of studying different theories and perspectives on dreams, I had developed the belief that dreams that occur at a specific time during the sleep cycle naturally had psychological meaning. However, this belief has been challenged - by a previous lecturer of mine who apparently wrote the first scientific book on sleep, with a physiological perspective. The occurrence of dreams may not necessarily be related to psychological phenomena, but to neuronal firing during specific parts of the sleep cycle. For instance at a particular time during the sleep cycle, you may dream that you are falling from a building and wake up - but in fact what really happened is that your heart missed a beat. Another example is that you dream that you are being crushed under a building, or being buried alive. You wake up and realise you are having a mild asthma attack. Thus, the only way the physiological system could warn you of a possible threat to your physiological system was by utilising existing content in the subconscious. This is a very simple explanation of a complex topic, but worth considering. I will try to find the name of his book, I had in fact downloaded it as it was exceptionally interesting. Hope this is of interest.

dear cheryl .your speech might be right but not always.I myself have experienced some dreams without any problem in my physiological state.but physiological problems can have a role in dream contents like other factors such as events during waking period.

Correct Mozghan, that is what I have always considered as being the case, however the complexity of the relationships became more clear on the physiological side, when the research provided indicated the ability of physiological states to induce dreams which alert the subconscious to possible physiological threat, whether it be from an internal or external source.

thanks Cheryl I will be glad if you send me any scientific articles about physiological state and diseases influenced on dream contents

I will look in my archives and send them to you in the next day or so Mozhgan - I hope you find them interesting!

thanks very much cheryl.I am waiting for your message

dear Lewis do you have any documents on your speech?/I will be glad if I see them

I feel that dreams have unconscious representations of our wishes, desires and longings. Dreams have been used in history to answer questions people faced in their critical periods of life. Keeping a dream journal can help with getting more insights into ones's life.

Keep in mind that in biblical times, interpretation of dreams was considered a prophetic science. See Genesis on the story of Joseph.

but I meant scientific aspect of dream interpretation not religious

thanks a lot

Hi Mozhgan,

if you're interested in dreams, perhaps, it is a good idea to familiar with the work of some of the experts in the field.

I would propose the following names:

http://rosalindcartwright.com/

http://www.ourdreamingmind.net/

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deirdre_Barrett

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KnODigCIH3A

http://www.dreamscience.ca/en/publications.html

http://www2.ucsc.edu/dreams/

Dr. Milton Kramer, Dr. Jim Pagel, Dr. Vadim Rotenberg, Dr. Allan Hobson, Dr. Mark Solms, Dr. Deiredre Barrett, Dr. Tore Nielsen, Dr. William Domhoff, and few others.

You can look for their works.

I worked with Prof. Cartwright and she did some content analysis. You could look for her publications. By the way, I was the one collecting the dreams.

Good luck!

Although many hypotheses and theories on the functions of dreams, according Dr. Cartwright, it is the 'mood regulation'.

Dear Mozhgan Sepehrimanesh,

This work from our lab investigates dream (and lucid dream) content among brazilians. Hope you like it!

All the best, Sergio

Our mind & brain with the divinity within us play an very important part for our inner development which may become the part of psychological & which we can implement for us under psychic tech with the intuitive vibrating forces  for which we have to take due care with our vibratory forces .

Very often without reflecting the force of intuition , our mental thinking may come on the surface of our dream . It will not out of place that sometimes back in my publication i have express my views on Dream which i also attach for perusal.

This is my personal opinion
