Dreams, Aging, and the Night Mind

Marcus Bly

Sleep changes as the years pass, and so does what happens in the mind while it rests. This is a clear look at that shift: why dreams grow shorter and less vivid with age, what lighter sleep means for memory and mood, how the night mind still works to sort and repair even when rest feels thinner, and simple habits that support deeper cycles. Grounded, reassuring, and genuinely curious about what aging really changes.
