What was said
"If you practice a new script for the ending of your nightmares, you can rescript your nightmares through something called imagery rehearsal therapy. People can look it up and not every time, not for everyone, but just the fact that nightmares can be rescripted is powerful."
Dr Rahul Jandial says imagery rehearsal therapy may help some people reduce recurring nightmares by repeatedly imagining a different ending before sleep. He cautions it does not work for everyone, but argues it shows dream content is not always fixed or uncontrollable.
