Hmm. Well, I usually go to bed with no intention. I just go to bed because I'm tired or because I have to be up at a certain time. Dreams are normally not something I think of unless someone brings it up or the rare event when I remember one.

Also, "all the stresses of the day" isn't really that much. Just out of curiosity, I just went and took a stress quiz. I got 31.

If your score is between 20 and 30, chances are you are non-productive or your life lacks stimulation.

A score between 31 and 50 designates a good balance in your ability to handle and control stress.

If you tallied up a score ranging between 51 and 60, your stress level is marginal and you are bordering on being excessively tense.

If your total number of points exceeds 60, you may be a candidate for heart disease.
I will try to remember any tips you have mentioned, though. Thanks for the support!
