Sleep is the foundation for health, just like consuming a healthy diet, getting our heart rate up through aerobic exercise, and saying no to smoking and/or other habits that could negatively impact our body, mind, & spirit. Sleep is healing – it’s the time our body’s cells regenerate, our mind rests, and when we dream!
Did you know that dreaming is also known as memory consolidation? Some researchers believe dreams play a part in memory formation. Evidence suggests that the sleeping brain sorts, processes, and stores information from waking life, turning important information into memories. Dreams may also reflect the images and concepts that are stored as long-term memories.
