[Lifestyle] ‘Subah ke jo sapne hote hai…’: Are your morning dreams real? Here’s the truth

[-_-Moltres-_-]

 

Right before your alarm goes off, do you feel bombarded with the most vivid visions in your dreams — reconnecting with ancestors, getting thrown off the edge of a building, fighting with your loved ones, or playing hero to a damsel in distress? While friends and family claim that morning dreams often come true, we wonder if this actually rings true from a scientific perspective. Recently, psycho spiritual healer Kavyal Hathi Sedani shared her thoughts on the same during an exclusive chat with Pinkvilla: “Subah ke jo sapne hote hai, unko venting bolte hai. They are called venting dreams, literally trash can dreams. Sab kuch process ho gaya, ab baaki ka kuch information hai jiska humein koi bhi kaam nahi. Log bolte hai ki subah ke sapne sach hote hai, magar woh sach nahi hai. Jis information ka aapko koi kaam nahi hai, sochlo aapke brain ne usko phenk diya,” she shared. Dr Srikanth Srinivasan, MD, DM[Neuro], Master of Psychiatry, told indianexpress.com that early morning dreams are those that occur roughly between 4 a.m. and 6 to 7 a.m. They occur during a specific phase of the sleep cycle known as the REM sleep period, also referred to as the Rapid Eye Movement sleep behavior, which is the longest REM period.“There are multiple REM periods that happen during the sleep cycle, and this particular period that happens in the early morning is the longest REM sleep period during a night’s sleep. Since it happens very close to waking up, and because it lasts for such a long time, say about 90 minutes or so, we tend to remember the dreams that happen early in the morning,” he explained. There’s also a significant difference in the content of the dreams that we experience early in the morning.According to Dr. Srinivasan, during a particular REM period dream, our repressed emotions, deeper psychological conflicts, and past events all come to the fore. “This is because certain areas in the brain get activated during this particular, the last REM period of the sleep cycle,” he said.
