Woke up from a bad dream? Science shows you can change your sleeping mind
At the University of Montreal's Dream Engineering Lab, scientist Michelle Carr works through the night trying to better understand why we dream – and especially why we experience nightmares. She says we too often dismiss bad dreams as "just dreams," when they're actually real experiences with real effects. Carr joins Piya Chattopadhyay to discuss the latest developments in sleep science, and how we have more control over our dreams than we may think.
