We need sleep to survive, just as we need food, water, and air. It is common to all vertebrates, even fish and reptiles to a certain extent. There seems to be no need for sleep in lower forms of animal life, and they are not aware of diurnal rhythms as vertebrates are. The need for sleep seems to be in direct proportion to the complexity of the nervous system.

There is a range of sleep in humans from sleepiness to Stage 4 sleep, in which there is deep insensitivity to external stimuli, which is why we choose a tranquil environment to sleep in, when we can. When we sleep our skeletal muscles relax, and our nervous system lowers our reactions to the intake of sensory perceptions.

Sleep is classified in four stages but also classified as REM (rapid eye movement - actually observable under the eyelids) and non-REM sleep. We dream during REM sleep, and in that stage our major muscle systems are deactivated so that we don't thrash about while dreaming of performing some activity; rather we merely twitch.

The stage of deepest sleep, stage 4, usually occurs within the first hour of sleep, so that we assure this most essential part of sleep from the beginning of our sleep period, in case out sleep is prematurely interrupted. We are basically in a stupor in this stage, as our body relaxes, heals, and restores itself.

Animals, not usually nocturnal developed this means of restoring the body during the unproductive and dangerous hours of darkness, where we biologically reset and refresh our systems.
Dreams help us to work out our emotional and psychological problems, and solve our dilemmas.

Because they are related to your true feelings and the things that disturb us, Freud foune dreams very useful in understanding the workings of our inner mind or subconscious. Dreams, he found, are a doorway to our most intimate thoughts.
