Psychic shares step you must take if you dream about falling

We all wish for better sleep and try to practice good sleep hygiene, but sometimes, it feels as though our dreams are getting in the way. 

Remembering dreams is a normal part of sleep, but having a dream about falling can be seriously weird. 

Sometimes, you may wake up from the dream with a start, thinking you’ve actually tripped up. But other times, the process is slower, and you’ll feel like you’re falling slowly through the sky with nothing to cushion your fall when you eventually hit the ground.

Psychic Stacey B came up with a theory about the “real meaning” behind these types of dreams – as well as the step you must take if you’re experiencing them regularly.  

She explained that she believes your “spirit guides” are sending you “really important messages through your dreams”, so it’s a good idea to pay attention to what they’re saying.

Stacey believes dreams about falling mean there is “an area in your life you are losing control over, and it’s time to take control back”.

She also said people ask her how they are supposed to know which areas of their life they’re supposed to take control of. To this, she argues “there is always a clue in every single dream”.

Stacey shared that “as soon as you wake up”, you should try and find the clue that’s been left for you by going “back to the dream”. 

“See if you can remember something that feels familiar – it could be a person, could be a name, could be a place, it could be a smell, it could be a knowing”, she advised.

She said that the clue will “directly take you back and show you what area of your life it is that you need to take control over”.

Time 4 Sleep also shared that “falling dreams are often linked to feelings of anxiety, helplessness and inadequacy.

“On an emotional level, these experiences in our subconscious whilst we sleep could indicate that we are going through some tumultuous times in our waking lives.”

And when you feel the ‘tripping’ sensation in your dream and wake up, it’s called a hypnic jerk.

The NHS shares: “Hypnic jerks are a sudden jumping sensation of the body which occurs during the transition between wakefulness and sleep. 

“It is not entirely clear why they occur. However, they are a normal occurrence with most people experiencing them at some time in their lives.”
