Dream Control
You have probably wondered, at some point or other, if it is possible to control your dreams. The answer is, yes! It is possible to control your dreams. It takes time, practice and a lot of work, but if you don't mind putting in the time and the work, it is possible to learn how to control your dreams.
How to control your dreams
One of the most popular methods of learning how to control your dreams is simply making it a habit to decide what you want to dream about. Of course, deciding what you want to dream about isn't all there is to it. Once you decide what you want to dream about, you have to make that subject the sole focus of your concentration. Think about every aspect of the dream you want to have. If you want to dream about a friend, think about what they look like. Imagine having a conversation with them. Let yourself hear their voice in your head. This is visualization at its strongest. The most important thing to making sure you dream about what you want to dream about is, while your concentration must be strong, you must keep your body relaxed. Tensing your muscles will keep you awake. Let your body fall asleep while you think about the topic of your dream.
Another way that you can learn how to control your dreams is by practicing something called lucid dreaming. This is more of an internal control over the situations and characters of your dream. Lucid dreaming is dreaming in which you know that you are dreaming. It sounds a little bit head-bendy, but think of it like this. Have you ever been having a dream in which you suddenly realized “I'm dreaming”? That is a lucid dream. Many people who become skilled at having lucid dreams find that they can control their dreams. If you want to control your dreams, you might think about learning how to have lucid dreams.
Learning to control your dreams can provide you with great insight into your life. When you learn how to control your dreams, you can play out situations, try new things and figure out the parts of your life that are giving you the most problems. Once you can control your dreams, you will experience a great rush of freedom. The dream world is not bound by the laws and science of the waking world. If you want to fly in your dream, you can fly. If you want to have a conversation with someone, you can!
The important thing to remember is that learning to control your dreams can be a long and trying process. It takes a lot of concentration and a lot of practice to know exactly how to control your dreams. Whether you simply want to dream about something, or you want to have a lucid dream, knowing how to control your dreams can be a great step in working through the issues of your waking life.

Nobody is sure exactly how dreams happen. Scientists know that during REM sleep the brain's activity is almost like the activity of a brain of a person who is awake, but nobody is sure why this is or how it happens. Scientists don't know if the brain generates dreams or if the body forces the brain to be active during REM sleep.
