Ever wondered what your dreams mean?
Dream experts will tell you that your dreams are your subconscious’ way of telling you about your well-being.
Since many of us have a similar cultural upbringing, we have similar dreams because our brains have a similar frame of reference.
Here are 5 of the weirdest recurring dreams and the meaning behind them.
Falling Dream
You know that dream we all have where we fall from somewhere high up that startles us right back to reality?
That is just your body letting you know you had too much sugar before bed.
Your body will experience a blood sugar drop while sleeping that inevitably gives you that feeling of falling.
Your brain tells you this in a dream that fits the ‘falling’ reference.
Drowning Dream
Drowning or maybe even a dream where you are suffocating could be your body letting you know that you might be developing sleep apnea.
Those who have sleep apnea often struggle to breathe in their sleep and thus the mind expresses that to you with a dream that feels like the same experience of being out of breath.
Dreams can make it easy to understand what’s happening in our bodies.
Snake Dream
As we probably have already realised by now, our dreams are a way for our brains to send us messages by creating imagery that evokes emotions.
Snakes seem to evoke strong feelings whether you love them or hate them according to experts.
Snakes represent poison, lies and transformation and we often dream about snakes when we are in the process of reinventing ourselves like a snake sheds its skin.
Being Chased Dream
During the course of the day, our minds are busy thinking about our external relationships.
In our sleep, our minds get a chance to focus on our internal parts, and so we dream about our relationship with ourselves.
Experts say that when you are being chased in your dream you are actually avoiding a part of yourself that you might not like or because it touches upon past trauma.
Teeth Falling Out Dream
Losing your teeth is an extremely common dream.
The reason is because our teeth are a very significant part of our body that helps us ‘break down’ our food to eat.
We all know how important food is.
So when we dream of losing our teeth it means that our life problems are overwhelming us and they feel ‘too big’ to ‘break down.’
Next time you dream of your teeth falling out, remind yourself that you got this!
