About this listen
AN AMAZON EDITORS' BEST BOOKS OF 2024 PICK
"Completely transformed my way of thinking about dreams."–Jay Shetty
Dreaming is one of the most underappreciated functions of the human brain, yet our very survival as a species depends on it. In This Is Why You Dream, dual-trained neuroscientist and neurosurgeon Dr. Rahul Jandial explores the landscape of our subconscious, tracing the latest cutting-edge dream research and brain science to show why humans have retained the ability to dream across millennia, and how we can now harness its wondrous powers to improve our sleeping and waking lives.
There's so much dreaming does for us. It fortifies our ability to regulate emotions. It stores memories, amplifies creativity, and promotes learning. It helps us process trauma and prepare for future upheaval. Dreams can even forecast future mental and physical ailments, such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's.
Dreams can also be put to use. Dr. Jandial walks you through how to use lucid dreaming to practice skills that translate into real-life improvements, how to rewrite nightmares, and what your dreams reveal about your deepest desires. Ultimately, This Is Why You Dream opens the door to one of our oldest and most vital functions, and unlocks its potential to radically transform our lives.

Jeff Tarrant was fascinated by the paranormal as a child but then his training as a neuropsychologist turned him into a hardcore skeptic. If something could not be reliably and consistently demonstrated in the laboratory, then it wasn’t real. These rigid ideas were gradually worn away as he repeatedly witnessed and experienced things that simply should not be possible—telekenesis, clairvoyance, telepathy, mediumship, energy healing, and more. This book follows his journey of studying, interviewing, and testing a wide variety of mediums, psychics, and healers.

In January 2023, bestselling author Johann Hari started to inject himself once a week with Ozempic, the diabetes drug that produces significant weight loss. He wasn’t alone—credible predictions suggest that in two years, a quarter of the U.S. population will be taking this class of drug. Proponents say that this is a biological solution to a biological problem. While 95 percent of diets fail, the average person taking one of the new drugs will lose a quarter of their body weight in six months, and keep it off for as long as they take it.

For years as an award-winning war reporter, Sebastian Junger traveled to many front lines and frequently put his life at risk. And yet, the closest he ever came to death was the summer of 2020 while spending a quiet afternoon at the New England home he shared with his wife and two young children. Crippled by abdominal pain, Junger was rushed to the hospital by ambulance. Once there, he began slipping away. As blackness encroached, he was visited by his dead father, inviting Junger to join him.

Terminal lucidity is a relatively common but poorly understood phenomenon. Near the end of life, many people—including those who have suffered brain injuries or strokes, or have been silenced by mental illness or deep dementia—experience what seems a miraculous return. They regain their clarity and energy, are able to talk with families and caregivers, recall their lives and often appear to be aware of their nearing death.

Story
Unfortunately, left unchecked, overthinking can easily become the number one hindrance to enjoying your life, overshadowing moments of joy and preventing you from fully embracing the present. Its relentless cycles trap you into a web of doubt–you can’t make decisions, you can’t take action, and you can’t find peace. Which is why you need a thorough step-by-step process to not only cut away the roots of overthinking, but also bounce back in life.

The science of emotion is in the midst of a revolution on par with the discovery of relativity in physics and natural selection in biology. Leading the charge is psychologist and neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett, whose research overturns the long-standing belief that emotions are automatic, universal, and hardwired in different brain regions. Instead, Barrett shows, we construct each instance of emotion through a unique interplay of brain, body, and culture.

Sleep is one of the most important but least understood aspects of our life, wellness, and longevity. Until very recently, science had no answer to the question of why we sleep, or what good it served, or why we suffer such devastating health consequences when we don't sleep. Compared to the other basic drives in life - eating, drinking, and reproducing - the purpose of sleep remained elusive.

Critic reviews
“Dr. Jandial writes with verve and delivers powerful insights based on science, stories and his personal synthesis of big ideas. This book will change your life.”–Lewis Howes, author of The Greatness Mindset and host of The School of Greatness podcast
"We spend an enormous portion of our lives in the doppelgänger state of dreaming–but commonly with little insight into why and how. Jandial elegantly lifts the curtains on the dreamscape territory, beautifully illuminating this universally shared experience."–David Eagleman, neuroscientist at Standford, author of the New York Times bestseller Incognito and Livewired
“After several decades of reading and reviewing books on sleep and dreams, I think This Is Why You Dream is one of the best I’ve encountered. Rahul Jandial writes persuasively and with authority and imagination.”–Richard Restak, neurologist and author of The Complete Guide to Memory

In The Butchering Art, the historian Lindsey Fitzharris reveals the shocking world of 19th-century surgery on the eve of profound transformation. She conjures up early operating theaters - no place for the squeamish - and surgeons, working before anesthesia, who were lauded for their speed and brute strength. They were baffled by the persistent infections that kept mortality rates stubbornly high. A young, melancholy Quaker surgeon named Joseph Lister would solve the deadly riddle and change the course of history.

Sleep is one of the most important but least understood aspects of our life, wellness, and longevity. Until very recently, science had no answer to the question of why we sleep, or what good it served, or why we suffer such devastating health consequences when we don't sleep. Compared to the other basic drives in life - eating, drinking, and reproducing - the purpose of sleep remained elusive.

We’re never going to measure up to the “perfect parent” model we’ve built up in our heads—a Frankenstein version of mom and dad cobbled together from our childhoods, our parents, cultural ideals, social media, and everything in between.

In Bite, zoologist Bill Schutt makes a surprising case: it is teeth that are responsible for the long-term success of vertebrates. The appearance of teeth, roughly half a billion years ago, was an adaptation that allowed animals with backbones, such as fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, dinosaurs and mammals—including us—to chow down in pretty much every conceivable environment.

Deeper understanding the dynamics of brain, mindfulness or other senses
Insight was interesting. It appears we are beginning the relationships of dreams and inputs from waking thoughts, troubles, worries and anxiety. Unresolved issues come forward as well as current issues may be temporarily paused and replaced. It appears it’s not all about troubles. Insights and creativity seem to be expressed also.

I am so grateful for this book, I learned so much and probably an eye opening experience. I strongly believe that this book gave me not only a clear understanding of why we dream but also answered questions I had for a long time and brought awareness to the wonderful signs our mind and brain's were and are giving us. I am so grateful for this book and may God bless the author Dr. Rahul Jandial with much more wisdom so that he can continue help us.

How Beautiful
I am a lucid dreamer. It never occurred to me this was unusual but the importance of the experience has never been in question. In my dreams, it is possible to explore ideas that would never surface otherwise. The depth of detail and intensity of texture both tactile and visual have given inspiration and resolution to personal and creative circumstances that had been intractable. This book gave me added tools to improve myself and reach further.

Awakening to the power of dreams
It is fortunate to have the narrator be the writer! Even though his delivery is at times flat, Dr. Jandial brings his own personal research, dream understandings, and personal passions to speak to the remarkable benefits of understanding dreaming and your dreams. It does add to the richness of having an "examined life." I can't recommend this book more highly

Brain Functioning While Dreaming

The how and why of your dreams revealed
Over 50 years ago my mother and I learned how to interpret our own dreams, and the dreams of others we knew intimately. This book dovetails perfectly with what we learned about ourselves and what our dreams were attempting to communicate to us. What this book revealed to me is how and why. I do wish my mother, my teacher, was still alive to gain the insights presented in this book. Highly recommended.
