I think sometimes nightmares reoccur because an issue remains unresolved and continues to be on our minds. But at other times nightmares may reoccur I think even when the original issue is long gone, but we have learn subconsciously to expect those nightmares, and therefore they fulfill your expectations. Perhaps some days you have the subconscious fleeting thought that you have not had a lion themed nightmare in a while, and then sure enough you get another one. Of course, it would not work to try to force yourself to not think about them because avoidance may trigger dreams of what one is trying to avoid even more so. |
