We need to share our dreams – our dreams from the night and our life dreams – with caring and supportive others who can help us to unlock their meanings and bring their energy to heal and empower our everyday lives.
This group will take a psychoeducational approach -- that is we will study as well as share and engage the creative process. Together we will read the book, The Art of Dreaming, by Jill Mellick and and other material to learn about dream interpretation and dreamwork from a Jungian perspective. Participants will be asked to keep a dream journal.
Members will be invited to share dreams and benefit from the group's questions and reflections about the dream. Other participants are enriched by hearing and working with dreams other than their own. Everyone in the group learns about dream work by doing it together. The only requirement is that you really love dreams want to learn more about your own dream process.
This group will begin November 20, 2010. We will use a private Ning network, where we will have a discussion forum, and I will be able to post material to read. We will use the discussion forum for discussions about the reading material, about dreams in general, about the process of working with dreams. In addition we we will discuss dreams that are shared with the group. Our network will not be visible to anyone outside of our group and accessible only to members. Ten days after the ending of the group, I will delete all discussion. Because of the format, people are free to participate each day within their own schedule, which will make it easier for everyone to participate.
Basic requirements: Internet access, ability to use email, including how to attach and download documents. Members agree to commit to spending time each day (about 1.5 -2 hrs per week) reading and commenting on the dreams of other participants and participating in discussions. I will be participating daily in discussions. Because we will be doing this group online, you will be able to participate at times which are most convenient for you, though you will be expected to participate regularly for the duration of the group.
The class will be limited to 8 members. The charge for this course is $150, payable via Paypal. Individual consultations are available for an additional fee upon request. A $35.00 registration fee guarantees your place in the group; the balance is due by the beginning of the group.
C. B. says of this course:
"I just wanted to thank you for a really excellent dream workshop and for greatly improving my nighttime entertainment! While I have not yet committed to a dream journal, I think I will have to very soon…..in the couple of nights since the workshop I have been dreaming practically nonstop – and this with no encouragement from my waking self, and also from a previous paucity of dream experiences in which I really remember only fragments. Now I can cancel my Netflix subscription as I have enough nighttime entertainment to last a long time!"
