The Dream Book

I am currently writing a book on the science of dreams, exploring the interconnectedness of our dreams and well-being and how we can use our nightly fictions to improve our waking lives. I’m fascinated by dream experiences that illuminate our waking preoccupations and state of mind.

I’m sharing what I learn along the way. What fascinates you about dreaming, and what are you curious to learn more about? I’d love to hear from you. Connect on Instagram @scienceofyouandme.
