That sleepless thing is really interesting, Mystic Graves. How do you determine which one to visit?, if im not being too nosey. I have 3-4 places I return to in my dreams that aren't deliberate mental constructs that I'm aware of, but familiar none the less. I could describe each individually, like my Carnival House of Dreamscapes in which all maintenance is done; the Hall of Memories for pieces of life-times, a library and a lecture hall. It's probably a Virgo thing for sorting and tidying, in my case.
I believe it varies depending on my mood & state of mind.
I find myself laying down, sitting, or whatever comfortable position I can relax in. I then gently focus on feeling everything around me, each item I'm aware of, anyone in the area, smells, sounds that might distract me (though music helps, it gives me a rhythm to think by & helps block everything out, lol). Once I have my focus on what is around me I kind of will it all to fade away, either by it literally fading away, or if my mood requires it, seeing/feeling it all be broken down until it's bits that are unidentifiable which then are crushed, burned, or in some way made into nothing. I do this until I'm left with only myself & anything I choose to have with me; surrounded by complete nothingness. A void.
When also going from one place to the other, I tend to travel through this void space. I wonder around in a blank state & choose what I am most interested in at that moment. When in one place I will feel my energy rise out of me, incompass me, then I'll rush above the world I'm on, typically by flying or teleporting or similar; some are planets, some are floating island type places, some are in spherical barrers like a bubble... Once I'm above the world, I feel myself seep from that realm into the void of nothingness. Then I chose from there if I wish to be home & done with my travels or go to the next world.
A world I love:
The sky is gradient of red, purple, & deep blue. No humans, or anything like that. The vegetation/plants act more like animals/people than plants; reaching out, touching, greeting & taking to me in a very whispy language, which seems more like emotions put to sound. The dirt seems more swirled of black, grey, & red than brown. The "water", if you'd call it that, is a deep red, almost like something has bleed out in water but oddly serene and not alarming like you might think. It's extremely calming.
Another place I go to when I'm very upset is a complete wasteland. Nothing lives there. And I can do anything. I'm unlimited in most ways except when I choose to apply a limit or a cap to my abilities. I tend to train my mind's body, going all out, duplicating myself into as many of me as I need to train with. Seeing from any of these points of veiw, I can shift from each "me" as I so choose. I duke it out with myself here, so if I feel the need to fight or angry feelings are eating at me, this is where I go to burn off that hard energy. Sometimes I have to "work" off my emotional troubles, because tranquility isn't always enough. <.<;

The hidden world in our minds.
Well, I used to imagine he's my friend and that he protects me.
