The Dream:ON plays a “soundscape” to evoke pleasant scenes such as woodland or a beach.
Hertfordshire University’s Prof Richard Wiseman, who led a two-year study, said good dreams help people achieve a good mood on waking up.
He added: “If someone chose the nature landscape then they were more likely to dream about greenery and flowers.
