Why Do People Dream About Falling?

Imagine you're in a dream, and suddenly you start falling, it's like being on a giant slide that just dropped you! People often dream about falling because their brains are trying to tell them they're stressed or scared. It’s like when you’re playing a game and you feel nervous, but the fun continues anyway.

When we sleep, our brain is busy working through everything we experienced during the day. Sometimes it shows us things as dreams, like falling, to help us relax or understand how we're feeling inside.
