Dreams are sequences of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations that occur involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep. Far beyond merely reflecting physical or emotional symptoms, dreams are regarded as revealing crucial insights into a patient's inner self. The symbolic nature of dreams allows homeopaths to understand psychological messages, making them a powerful tool in choosing the most fitting remedy. Analyzing recurring dream themes can aid in understanding a person’s underlying issues, thus guiding personalized treatment in homeopathy.
