This book explores what we can learn from dreams, both nocturnal and waking, through their revelations of emotional truths, and how these truths can inform psychotherapeutic practice, spiritual practice, and everyday life.
The co-authors--both psychotherapists and artists--demonstrate the path of awakening not only from dreams but also to and through dreams. They suggest that to dream is to realize grace. Further, they apprentice grace by developing and deepening the relationship to the soul's divine gifts and receiving the wondrous offerings of vivid dreamlife. Through contemplation of more than 13 dreams, the authors share their collaborative dream dialogues and reflections. In this process, new meanings, questions, and revelations about the life of the soul emerge. They show how to cultivate the practice of deeply listening to our dreams and the emotional truths they harbor by growing awareness and receptivity to our psyche's enigmatic expressions.
With rich dream dialogues and a focus on learning from dreams together, this book is essential reading for psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, and anyone wanting to explore how dreams can help us better understand ourselves in relationship to the mystery of the soul, to each other, and to the world.
