Episode 22 - The Stuff of Nightmares
Psychology After Dark - Un podcast de Dr. Jessica Micono and Dr. David Morelos
At the age of 10, Dr. Micono had a nightmare that she clung to the Colossus of Rhodes while the island was shaken by a terrifying earthquake. The images and feelings from this dream would go on to influence her for the rest of her life. Most of us can remember at least one dream or nightmare that haunts us. As we continue to wrestle with the effects of the pandemic, many of us have been experiencing unusually intense and profound dreams. What is the nature of dreaming? Do our dreams and nightmares have significant meaning? Are we being given information about ourselves through these experiences that can be useful to us or is this just the business of the brain trying to process day-to-day information? Join Drs. Micono and Morelos as they explore the stuff of nightmares (and dreams)!!!
