28. Why aren't we dreaming about COVID? A Harvard Professor explains
Season 1, Ep. 28
•
Have you noticed you haven't dreamt about the pandemic, or it's barely appeared in your dreams since the crisis began? What the hell is that about?
Robert Stickgold - professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and author of new book 'When Brains Dream' - explains poll findings showing why most people either never or rarely dream about something which has consumed all our lives. What does this us tell us about why we dream? Why are we remembering dreams more in the pandemic? What's the function of dreaming? Why do we believe the absurd things we dream about when they're happening? And lots more!
