About this listen
Why do we dream - and what’s really happening inside the sleeping brain? In this episode, Artie Ficial and Ina Telligens dive deep into the neurophysiology and psychology of dreaming, exploring what science says (and still can’t quite explain) about our nightly adventures.
From theories of memory consolidation and emotional regulation to the wild idea that dreams help us rehearse for real-world challenges, we unpack the many functions that might make dreaming essential - not just random. Plus, we look at how REM sleep, consciousness, and creativity intertwine to shape the surreal worlds our minds build while we rest.
Big science, big mystery - and maybe a few answers hiding in plain sight.
