Are you intrigued about the dreams that stay with you… the ones that linger in your mind and body for hours, week, even years after you have dreamt them?
I believe such dreams hold a special power for insight and transformation, and in a recent talk I discuss why this is and offer an example of how I worked with such a dream. You can hear about what transpired with the dreamer who had held onto what they sensed was an important dream for two decades before exploring it with me.
My recent 3-hour live experiential dream workshop was so well-received, I have decided to make it available for those who wanted to attend but were not able to make it. In this workshop, we covered my three favourite experiential dreamwork practices:
- finding help in a dream (from Gendlin and focusing),
- embodying a dream element (from Perls and Gestalt) and
- dreaming the dream onward (from Jung’s active imagination).
I also wove in key insights about dreams that I have learned from more than 20 years of clinical dreamwork practice. These include:
- a sense that we are always dreaming – and how you can work with waking dreams much the same way you engage with dreams from the night.
- The dreams that stay with you deserve special attention. They can evolve and change under the surface, and engaging with them can bring a form of accelerated transformation.
- There are no bad dreams. I speak about ways to understand and work with nightmares, and underscore the importance of turning toward, not away from, these powerful dreams.
In the session, I offer a number of living or composite examples of actual dreamwork sessions, and then work briefly with a few dreams of participants to illustrate what these ideas look like in practice.
Because there have been many requests for access to this session, I am making the recording available, and to be fair, at the same discounted price I charged for registrants.
What you'll get:
- The full 3-hour recording
- Original article/speaking notes
- Slide presentation
Enjoy!!
