About this episode
In this episode, we explore what scientists have discovered about the sleeping brain. We discuss how vivid dreams most often happen during REM sleep, why the brain stays busy at night, and how dreaming relates to memory sorting, emotions, problem solving, and even practice for handling scary situations.
