New blog: Anxiety Dreams

It’s estimated that over half our dreams are ‘anxiety dreams’, although it’s possible that we sleep through many of our more pleasant dreams and tend to remember those that wake us up: the nightmares and stressful dreams.
When you feel fear, stress, or anxiety in a dream, the fear and stress hormones – adrenalin and cortisol – get pumped into your bloodstream. A terrifying nightmare usually pumps so much adrenalin and cortisol into your body that you startle awake, convinced that something scary really did happen, your heart beating madly, and your body primed to run, fight, or freeze. Less scary but stressful dreams drip feed these hormones into your body, maybe waking you, maybe half-waking you, maybe causing you to toss and turn, and generally leaving you feeling anxious and stressed in the morning. Not a good way to start your day.
Why do we have anxiety dreams?
