Abstract
You bolt up from your bed, breathing heavily. Noticing that you are on your bed, in the safety of your house, you relish in the idea that you are not drowning. You then think to yourself, why did I have that dream? What was the point? Why do we have dreams? You probably think about that dream for about five more minutes until the details start to slip away. Or maybe you forget about it altogether. Though much is unknown as to why we dream, what we do know is that rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, which is the stage where dreaming happens, is integral to our functioning and development.
