Dreams

​...a series of thoughts, images, and sensations occurring in a person's mind during sleep

Dreams are something everyone will experience; they come in good and bad. Lots of people don’t think twice about their dreams and most likely dose off back into their slumber or stay up pondering for five minutes about a nightmare they had whilst their heart pumps blood through their body but many cultures across the world treat dreams with respect. Supposedly, dreams are important “sources of information” which can reveal secrets of the “future, about the spiritual world, or about oneself”. The idea of the supernatural also correlates to the unknown dream world, and is thought of as a communication device to people on the other side.
Have you ever had a dream about something and wonder does this mean anything? Below you’ll find a list of the three most common dreams to have and a summary of what each mean:  

1. What does it mean to dream of my teeth falling out?
   If you’ve ever had your teeth start to crumble into your hands, fall out one-by-one with just a light tap, or your teeth starting to rot can reflect on your present anxieties about your appearance. The root of dreaming about this is a fear of rejection, embarrassment or feeling unattractive. Other interpretations of this type of dreaming is a feeling of “powerlessness and difficulty of speaking”, highlighting how you may feel you can’t express yourself fully to someone and a lack of confidence!
2. What does it mean to dream of being chased?
   Until you find the “issue and resolve” it in your waking life, this dream has a tendency of recurring throughout many nights. This dream is pretty simple and can mean there is something driving you away from the problem and causing distress in you. You are not only literally running away from the ‘boogeyman’ in your dream but you’re also running from your inner demons and your fears. YOU must tackle the problem and not wait for your knight in shining armor to save the day for you.
3. What does it mean to dream of not being able to find a toilet or restroom?
   To dream of this is a big wake up call of your health and how you are “struggling to express your needs in a certain way”. Your concentration on putting others first makes time for your personal issues bottom list of any worries.
