Unlocking the Secrets of Your Dreams: Practical Tips
- Keep a Dream Journal
One of the best ways to understand your dreams is by keeping a dream journal. Upon waking, jot down the details of your dreams right away. This includes any appliances you remember, how they appeared, and the feelings they evoked.
Over time, patterns may emerge that could point to specific issues you’re facing or emotions you are wrestling with.
