That might be sensible if the work of REM sleep was to only develop associations for negative events. There's no indication that I'm aware of that this is the case.

What do you think of the claim by the philosopher J.Krishnamurti that if you eliminate conflict during the day then you don't dream but just experience a blissful sleep state. I've experienced some effects myself of reducing conflict following his advice. I haven't eliminated dreams but they seem to occur less. And sleep is more energizing.

Krishnamurti's reduction of conflict includes eliminating thought patterns like values and principles that csuse conflict as well as trying to life without conflict with others.

That should be obvious, the brain chemistry that induces REM sleep is similar to hallucinogens, and have the same effect.
