Freud described dreams as the “royal road to the unconscious” and believed that some dreams fulfilled fantasies not gratified in our waking lives. Indeed, one study found that almost everyone that quit ni****ne started to dream about smoking (Hajek & Belcheer, 1991). Research further suggests that activity in prefrontal cortex (the part of our brain responsible for goal setting, logic, attention) decreases during sleep, whereas the part of our brain responsible for processing images (visual
cortex) increases. Therefore, with the brain unrestrained, our imagery runs wild and possibly expresses our unconscious in abstract ways.
