Are our souls still busy while our brains and bodies sleep??

Have any Catholic theologians or thinkers down through the centuries offered opinions on what our souls do while our brains are asleep?
Thinking of dreams in the bible, specifically the dreams of the mighty St. Joseph, the Terror of Demons, I would expect that our souls never sleep -- that they are simply disconnected from our earthly behaviours as we sleep. But God still can communicate with us using our dreams on occassion.

Dreams are involuntary by their very nature. I would not recommend trying to find any deeper meaning in them than that.

Oh no, I would never try to find a deeper meaning to dreams. I am merely curious as to whether or not Catholic thinkers have said anything about what our souls generally do when our brains are sleeping. Thanks for your response H.D.
