11: Dreams and Memory – How Sleep Shapes What We Remember
Episode 11
This episode explores how dreaming is closely tied to memory. During sleep—especially REM and deep sleep—the brain replays, reorganizes, and stores memories. Dreams often reflect emotional experiences and help process them in a low-stress environment. The episode explains why we forget dreams, how dreams blend and distort memories, and how dreaming can even lead to false memories. Scientific studies show that dreaming can enhance learning and problem-solving, making it a key part of how the brain grows and adapts.
