The first dream dictionary originates from Ancient Egypt.<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dream Dictionary<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It dates back to 4,000 BCE. Apparently, people have been interested in interpreting their dreams for thousands of years. After all, most of us have wondered, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What do dreams mean<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">? Nevertheless, experts claim that there are no universal symbols; each dream reflects personal feelings or problems.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>2. We forget up to 95% of all our dreams shortly after waking up.<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">VeryWell Mind<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s why some people think they don\u2019t dream. However, it\u2019s believed that we all dream every night. Only people with personality disorders may not dream.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>3. Blind people also dream.<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SPIE Digital Library<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to a study from 2017, even people who are blind since birth can have visual dreams.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>4.

In one study, scientists found out that a rat\u2019s brain activity while it was awake was very similar to that in REM sleep. Although we can\u2019t be absolutely certain that their dreams look like ours, it\u2019s very likely that they do dream.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>5. We have 4\u20136 dreams every night.<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WebMD<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although we can dream during any <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/disturbmenot.co\/stages-of-sleep\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sleep stage<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the most vivid dreams occur during REM (rapid eye movement) sleep. Since a new sleep cycle begins every 90\u2013120 minutes, the REM phase occurs four to six times per night. This is one of the most intriguing <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">facts about dreams<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>6. A typical dream lasts 5 to 20 minutes.<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">VeryWell Mind<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to researchers, we dream for about two hours every night. During that time, we normally have a few dreams of different durations, from 5 to 20 minutes. A fascinating fact is that we on average spend about six years dreaming during our lifetime.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>7. During a lucid dream, parts of the brain that are typically inactive during sleep show increased activity.<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WebMD<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A lucid or conscious dream is the one in which you are aware of the fact that you\u2019re dreaming. One of the well-known <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">lucid dreams facts<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is that lucid dreamers can change the direction of their dreams. When you have this type of dream, it seems that your brain is on the borderline between REM sleep and being awake. It\u2019s interesting that some people use different techniques in order to become lucid dreamers so that they can control their dreams.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>8.

This state is called REM atonia. However, people with a REM-sleep behavior disorder (RBD) are able to move during REM sleep and can act out their dreams. Although this may seem like one of the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">funny facts about dreams<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it\u2019s a serious state that can result in injuries.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>9. 1%\u201315% of people sleepwalk.<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">National Sleep Foundation<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This behavior disorder is characterized by walking or moving while still fast asleep. It generally occurs in the deep sleep stage. Besides walking, sleepwalkers commonly perform other complex activities as well. For example, they can get dressed, prepare food, or drive a car. Some of them can even become violent. One of the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">common myths about dreams<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and sleeping is that you shouldn\u2019t wake up a sleepwalker. In most cases, this isn\u2019t true. For the sake of everyone\u2019s safety, sometimes it\u2019s even desirable to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sleep.org\/articles\/safely-wake-sleepwalker\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wake them up<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> instead of letting them wander around. Also, sleepwalking can occur as a consequence of other sleep disorders, such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/disturbmenot.co\/what-is-sleep-apnea\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sleep apnea<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>10.
