Do you know that every dream you have is very important?, Check out the importance of dreams

Importance of Dreams
Dreaming is a natural, necessary part of life.
Everyone dreams, but the significance,
frequency of occurrence and ability to
remember dreams varies on an individual
basis. Here are some facts about dreams you
may not have known.

Incidence of Dreams
The average person has 1,460 dreams per
year.
That comes out to four dreams per night.

Snoring v. Dreaming
Scientists say you can't snore and dream at the
same time.
Good news: if you wake up feeling like you had
a wild night of dreaming, you don't have to
worry about having annoyed your partner
beside you all night long.

Childhood Dreams
Childhood dreams tend to be shorter than
adult dreams, and nearly 40% of children's
dreams are nightmares.
Children also dream about animals far more
than adults. Dogs, horses, cats, lions, snakes
and bears all frequently appear in children's
dreams.

Color
The interpretation of color in a dream varies
from person to person.
A color's meaning can only be determined by
an individual's relationship to a color. Blue in
one person's dream can mean love or serenity,
but it can translate to something entirely
different for another dreamer.

Men's Diets and Sexual Dreams
Sharp decreases in men's caloric intakes have
been shown to lead to fewer ejaculations
during sleep and an overall decrease in the
sexual themes of their dreams.

Dreams and Blood Flow
During REM sleep, the blood flow to the brain increases.
This raises the body's temperature, and a man's penis and a woman's clitoris become erect.

Vitamins and Dreaming
Both Vitamin B complex (B6) and St. John's Wort have been shown to produce more vivid dreams.

Pregnant Women and Dreaming
Pregnant women tend to have and remember more dreams than other populations.
This is typically believed to result from their extreme hormonal changes during pregnancy.

Nicotine and Dreaming
Chronic smokers who have recently quit report
more vivid dreams than when they smoked.
Additionally, nicotine patches are widely
regarded to intensify the content and
frequency of dreams and nightmares.
