EMPI DREAMFebruary 2025
Gaining control over my dreams has not only made sleep more exciting, but it has also made me more self aware and intentional in my daily life.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is EMPI DREAM?

EMPI DREAM is a science-backed dream app for iPhone. It helps you remember your dreams, see the patterns in them, reshape nightmares and learn lucid dreaming. It's more than a dream dictionary.

Is EMPI DREAM backed by science?

Yes. Our tools are guided by Dr. Antonio Zadra, a full professor at Université de Montréal who has studied dreams and nightmares for over 30 years and co-authored When Brains Dream.

How can I remember my dreams better?

Write them down the moment you wake up, before you move or check your phone. EMPI's Dream Journal makes that quick, and keeping it up is one of the simplest ways to improve recall.

Can EMPI DREAM help with nightmares?

EMPI gives you tools to understand recurring nightmares and rewrite how they play out. It isn't medical care. If nightmares are affecting your sleep or health, talk to a doctor.

Does EMPI DREAM teach lucid dreaming?

Yes. Dream U has short courses on lucid dreaming, and Dream Lab has MILD routines, breathwork and sound baths to help you become aware inside your dreams.

Is EMPI DREAM free?

EMPI DREAM is free to download on the App Store. Premium courses and tools come with a free 7-day trial.
