The New World of Dream Analysis: Good Dreams, What They Mean, and How to Have Them
Life hack: never skimp on good sheets. That’s how I justify my new Brooklinen Sheet Sets anyway …
The principle still stands. It’s common wisdom that — unless you’re counting every penny — splurging on the small stuff that goes between you and the ground: shoes, bed sets, sheets are worth investing in. After all, you use them every day and every night. So the quality of your sheets will affect your life — even if you don’t realize it.
It’s the little things that affect our sleep without us even knowing. Some we can help such as arranging our environment so it’s more peaceful and rest-conducive, or cutting down on screen time by banning our phones from our bedrooms. But every part of our lifestyles affects our sleep, and can even seep into our dreams. Considering the popularity of astrology and tarot, it’s no surprise that people are learning to decode their dreams.
The real world? Chaos. Dreams? A refuge — for the most part.
The Reddit community r/dreams has amassed a cult-like following where people describe their dreams and professional “dreamworkers” analyze them. People share their stories, bond over similar dreams, and revel in their peers’ dreamworlds.
Some interpretations pull directly from Freudian dream analysis, others offer psychological theories, and some merely speculate. However, this isn’t the only forum for those seeking communities to confer with about their dream landscapes. With apps on the market filled with like-minded communities, Facebook groups, and therapist-led groups, dream science is increasingly in demand each day.
In an article in The Guardian, professional dreamworker Jason DeBord explains this phenomenon of dream analysis and weighs why it might be a good idea. The Guardian asserts: “humanity might fare somewhat better if we all took a moment each morning to share our dreams from the night before.”
While establishing habits like dream journaling and sharing dreams with our friends can help us track our moods, the key to elevating the quality of our dreams is better sleep.
That’s where Brooklinen comes in.
