Is Remembering Dreams Important?
Dream researchers like Ryan Dungan Hurd, founder of DreamStudies.org and a member of the International Association for the Study of Dreams, believe the that fact that people dream is sufficient incentive, and people shouldn’t feel slighted if they can’t recall dreams. “As to why [dream recall] is important – well, that’s really a judgment call,” says Hurd, in a July 20, 2010, interview with Suite101. “For me, my dreams offer insight, opportunities for spiritual growth, and lots of sheer entertainment,” Hurd continued. He also indicated that whether people remember and consciously appreciate their dreams, this does not deter from the purpose of dreaming – to help the dreamer integrate experiences and quicken learning, according to Hurd’s theory. “Still, those who can remember their dreams are given a leg up, in my opinion, on learning about themselves and how to adapt to this crazy world,” Hurd concluded.
