Dreams

               Most of the people comment about how sleeping is so difficult to them or that they have insomnia. Well, I suppose that the advanced technology that we have at our disposal now in days have impacted some people’s sleeping hours turning them into horrible nights of pain. But I wonder this all my life… why do we dream? Do we always dream? With all the experiments made, they concluded that we dream to recharge the brain and yes, indeed we always dream just that most of the time we don’t remember. Sleeping enables the brain opportunity to recognize data to help solution problems and process newly information and information received months and days ago. Some facts I didn’t knew about dreams is that there are four different stages when your body is resting. The stage in which you are actually dreaming is REM which is a kind of sleep that occurs at intervals during the night and is characterized by rapid eye movements, more dreaming and bodily movement, and faster pulse and breathing. I didn’t knew that sleep lowers a person’s metabolic rate and energy consumption, body has a chance to replace chemicals and repair muscles, cardiovascular system rests, and that growth hormones are released while we sleep. Its incredible to know we spend 1/3 of our lives sleeping!
