About dreams

We all dream every night

Our brains are active throughout the night. But after we wake up, we often don't remember much about our dreams.

Many dreams are bizarre because part of our brain shuts down

When we are awake the front part of our brain controls how we make sense of the world. This shuts down during dreaming. Because of this, the dreaming brain puts together ideas that normally do not go together.

We dream in pictures

About two thirds of dreams are mainly visual, with fewer that involve sounds, movement, taste or smell. Colour is only in about a third of all dreams. It has been said that when we are awake we think in ideas, but when asleep we think in pictures.

We can learn to control our dreams

Many people have bad dreams or nightmares. These can happen over and over again. But people can change the events in these dreams to be less frightening. First, write down memories of the scary dream. After this think about how it might end differently.

Scientists disagree about the meaning of dreams

Some people say our dreams mean nothing. They say we have them only because parts of our brain are stimulated when we sleep. Other people say dreams have value. They say it is a kind of therapy for when we're feeling down. Having and remembering vivid dreams about stressful things in our lives may help deal with stress. Many people think that dreams contain messages, but the evidence for this is weak.

2021-09-03 19:48:34 Some good advice to improve your english:

•Listen to podcasts

Listening to podcasts helps to understand the accents. Also, you can learn new vocabulary and how to use them.
Since people listen to podcasts instead of watching them, it forces listeners to use their imagination and build the pictures in their mind. Thus, people who listen to podcasts regularly have a stronger and more vivid imagination. Podcasts also help us become better listeners.

• Read news in English

Reading the news is a good way to get a sense for different ways the language can be used. Moreover, reading the news in English can help to improve your grasp on different English-speaking cultural aspects, and help you to learn the differences between British, American, Canadian, Australian and South African English.
+ You get aware of what is happening around the world

• Watch English movies with subtitles

Fistly it incrases reading speed and listening comprehension, grows vocabulary
Furthermore, watching English movies with reading their vocab improves word recognition and grammar.
+Helps with visualization of a new language.
Watching is fun, but learning English while watching is more useful, isn't it!?

These are my own experiences and I told you to help you so that you can feel you are AMAZING at English

You put me on a pedestal and tell me I'm the best
Raise me up into the sky until I'm short of breath (Yeah)
Fill me up with confidence, I say what's in my chest
Spill my words and tear me down until there's nothing left
Rearrange the pieces just to fit me with the rest, yeah

But what if I, what if I trip?
What if I, what if I fall?
Then am I the monster?
Just let me know
And what if I, what if I sin?

Then am I the monster? Yeah
Just let me know, yeah

I was fifteen when the world put me on a pedestal
I had big dreams of doin' shows and making memories
Made some bad moves tryna act cool, upset by their jealousy

And tearing me down (Down), tearing me down (Down, down)
I'll take responsibility for everything I've done (Yeah)
Holding it against me (Yeah) like you're the holy one (Yeah)

I had a chip on my shoulder, had to let it go
'Cause unforgiveness keeps them in control
I came in with good intentions then I let it go
And now I really wanna know

What if I, what if I trip? (Oh)
What if I, what if I fall? (I fall)
