I am not a brain surgeon or a neurologist, but from what I understand, the subconcsious mind has alot to do with our concsious mind, and vice versa, and that our memories of physical and emotional experiences can be accessed easily by both concsious and subconscious. Dreams, the way that I percieve them, are made up of memories and extremely minute consciousness, so memories are played out on a seemingly concsious level. Dont look at the word Memories as full events, if u experience anything, it goes into memory, like the touch of grass or the smell or roses, you know, physical experience, and emotional experience is also stored in memory. Like I have mentioned in another thread, we all build walls out of fragments from our bad experiences, and when this wall is up, we restrain emotions, but when we sleep, these walls have a tendency to come down, and emotions are more raw and real, so when we wake up we are confused about the contrast between how we felt in the dream and how we would normaly feel when we are awake.
