"In higher organisms," Dewan says, "the brain is continually reorganized to meet the organism's current needs." To San Francisco's Breger, the crucial integration of REM is possible because the outside world is cut off and "social constraints" are minimal. In short, says Breger, "if something comes up in your present life that makes you anxious, during your dreams you can integrate it into ways of dealing...
