What Your Dreams Are Actually Trying To Tell You


Listen Later

Dr. K breaks down the science of dreams and why they may be one of the brain’s most powerful ways of communicating hidden information. While dream interpretation often sounds mystical or unscientific, Dr. K shows how even from a clinical perspective dreams can reveal suppressed emotions, defense mechanisms, and subconscious knowledge that you miss in day-to-day life.

Through real patient stories, he illustrates how dreams connect to relationships, addiction, and major life decisions. He explains why logical, data-driven people often benefit the most from dream work, since their intuition and emotions get pushed aside. The episode also covers practical steps like keeping a dream journal, mapping emotions onto real-world experiences, and interpreting symbols through your own personal associations.

Topics include:

  • Why evolution conserved dreaming and REM sleep across mammals
  • How suppressed emotions resurface through dreams
  • PTSD nightmares as evidence of dreams’ real-life connection
  • Defense mechanisms and why the brain hides information from you
  • Real cases: dreams about planes, snakes, and addiction recovery
  • Practical tools for dream journaling and emotional interpretation
  • Why the “symbols” in dreams matter less than what they mean to you
  • This episode bridges hard science and human experience, offering a framework for using your dreams as a guide to understand yourself better and make clearer choices.
