What do our dreams really mean? How should we deal with nightmares? Why do so many dreams feel so real?

In this episode I talk to psychologist Joe Griffith about why we dream and what our dreams mean.

Joe Griffin is a psychologist, author and Co-Founder of the Human Givens approach with many years of experience both in psychotherapeutic practice and in training psychotherapists. He has written a number of books including: Why We Dream: The definitive answer, and other books on treating anxiety and depression.

We talk about:

✅ Why is it important to understand our dream state

✅ What it means to dream at night

✅ How we learn and understand what our dreams really mean

✅ How daydreaming, hypnosis, creativity, dreaming and lucid dreaming all relate to each other

✅ Why our dreams are so intense and feel real when we experience them, and yet are so easily forgotten

✅ If everyone dreams and why some people remember their dreams while others do not

Over the last two decades, as co-developer of the human givens approach to psychology and behaviour, thousands of health professionals have benefited from his workshops on therapy for treating anxiety related disorders, depression, trauma and addiction.
