Sweet Dreams.

Professor Wiseman (yes, that really is his name!), of Hertfordshire University in the UK, has developed an App that will induce sweet dreams….

According to Mr Wiseman getting a good night’s sleep and having pleasant dreams will boost your productivity, and are essential for psychological and physical well-being.  Jeez did we really need a wise professor to tell us that?  He wants to find out why we dream and how we can provoke pleasant dreams.

Anyway, apparently you download this App and it turns your iPhone or iPad into a dream factory.  Loads of people are talking part in his experiment.  The App plays you sounds which are designed to make you think of pleasant scenes such as… lying on a beach…golden sand all around…the sound of the sea ebbing back and forward gently…not a cloud in the sky…a cocktail in one hand… a book in the other…the sun beating down on you….oops nearly dozed off there!!

So, you go to his university, you lie down, an iPad or iPhone plays you peaceful pleasant sounds, you go asleep, dream a lovely dream, and then you wake up and tell Mr Wiseman all about it!!  No wonder thousands of people have volunteered!

You can download the app from iTunes, go on try it, now, while you are working.  You can tell your boss that you are taking part in a very important experiment.

I should have been a professor, because that would be a great experiment to take part in or even conduct.  Oh well, I can daydream…

Gosh, I hope nobody invents an App for monitoring daydreaming, ‘cos I’d really be in trouble!!
