While your conscious (waking) mind rests in sleep, your unconscious mind remains active, sorting through the thoughts, feelings and experiences of the past day. Many dreams are nothing more than random reflections of this sorting process, and this type of dream is rarely remembered. Other dreams provide release of emotional stress by expressing fear or anger that might be dangerous to express in waking life. Still other dreams result as the sleeping mind works through possible solutions to problems. Yet again, some dreams seem to be simple entertainment, with the mind providing imaginary experiences that fulfill wishes that are very unlikely to be fulfilled in real life.

The hypothesis that suggests dreams are the brain's attempt to make sense of the random firing of brain cells during REM sleep is known as the Activation-Synthesis Theory. Proposed by researchers Allan Hobson and Robert McCarley in 1977, this theory posits that dreams result from the brain interpreting and synthesizing the spontaneous neural activity occurring during REM sleep. As a result, the brain creates narratives or stories based on these random signals, leading to the vivid and often nonsensical nature of dreams.
