For most people,
Dream is an ethereal existence
In life, I often hear people say
I have had a dream all night
I feel like I haven’t had a good sleep at all
So, the question is ↓
Will dreams decrease sleep quality?
actually does not say whether to dream, because everyone dreams every night when they sleep, but when they wake up the next day, some people will remember, while some people will forget, it is not the difference between doing and not doing.
Usually, sleep can be divided into non-rapid eye movement sleep period (NREM sleep) and Rapid eye movement sleep period (REM sleep). Among them, the significant feature of the REM sleep period is multi-dream. However, some people feel that they are not dreaming, mostly because they forget it after waking up.
For a long time, "insomnia" and "dreamless" have been linked together by people, thinking that these two words are a manifestation of poor sleep quality. In fact, this is a misunderstanding of "dreamless". Dreaming is a normal physiological reaction during sleep. Dreaming or remembering the content of dreams does not mean that the quality of sleep is poor. Research shows that dreaming has many benefits for our human body, such as regulating psychological balance, stabilizing mental mood, helping to repair and improve brain functions, and improving memory.
Why do some people remember dreaming about
and some people forget?
Whether we remember dreaming or dream content depends on which sleep period we wake up from.
Our nightly sleep will cycle back and forth between the non-rapid eye movement sleep period (NREM sleep) and the rapid eye movement sleep period (REM sleep). The vivid dreams are generated during the rapid eye movement sleep (REM sleep). If we wake up during this sleep period, we will remember this part of the dream. On the contrary, those who wake up during the non-rapid eye movement sleep period (NREM sleep) will forget the content of their dreams and dreams. The cycle of sleep causes our dreams to become clearer and blurred, which is why we cannot fully describe the content of our dreams.
Therefore, "dreams" not only do not mean that your sleep quality is not good, but instead, you sleep until dawn and wake up and can also say the content of your dreams, which shows that your sleep quality is good.
What are the methods for
to improve sleep?
Suggested sleep time for people of different age groups▼
According to research, ensuring 7 hours of sleep per day is the most beneficial to the human body. If this standard cannot be met at night, it is also OK to take a rest for a while at noon.
sleep disorders, especially patients with moderate and severe sleep apnea, should pay special attention. Sleep disorders may cause cardiovascular diseases, and should be detected as early as possible and actively treated under the guidance of a specialist in time.
You should always have a regular schedule, go to bed early and get up early, and ensure your mood is stable before sleep. Too excited before going to bed will affect the quality of sleep, making it difficult to fall asleep and causing insomnia.
People with insomnia can try drinking a glass of warm milk before going to bed, and massage and relax your body, soak your feet properly, and listen to soothing music. Avoid taking sleep aid drugs or melatonin blindly.
