To Be Young Again, Dreaming the Night Away

Here is an interesting little fact about dreams: children spend about 50% of their REM sleep dreaming, while adults spend only 25%. That’s a little disturbing.

The older we get the less we are able to slip into the fictitious worlds of our subconscious. In fact, senior citizens, spend on average only 15% of their REM sleep dreaming. Ouch.

On the upside, our dreams in adulthood contain fewer nightmares and less aggressive behaviour. Instead of a roller coaster diving into the Grand Canyon, we might dream about the price of apples at the local supermarket.

Finding a medium between theatre of the banal and skydiving requires a suitable sleeping foundation. If you are looking to improve your dreams, take home a new mattress from Mattress Choice. It will provide you with a longer, undisturbed sleep, where you will have a greater opportunity to take advantage of the mindscapes your brain has to offer.

Increase your dreaming potential. Invest in a new bed and see where the night takes you.
