Applied Dreamwork Training
PLEASE NOTE: YOU MAY DO ONE, SOME OR ALL OF THE FOLLOWING COURSES.
Do you tap into your dreams, your own primary source of spiritual wisdom? Since earliest times human beings have pondered their dreams, knowing that some form of guidance is encoded in the images and stories that emerge from our minds while we sleep. The new multi-disciplinary science of dreamwork is revealing how dreams relate to healing, health, trauma, religion, culture, creativity and spiritual growth. This is directly relevant to the work of counsellors, therapists, psychologists, health professionals, pastors, parents and all who seek a path of personal development.
Stage One: Dreams – Listening to Your Inner Self
This workshop is open to all enquirers since we all dream every night about significant issues in our lives. Come and learn the metaphor-language of dreams, and discover your inner counsellor! You can gain insights, humour, challenge and guidance tailormade for your own life. This is an introductory workshop, based on research, tested theory and a step-by-step process of interpretation. Please bring a dream to work with.
