Transformational power of dreaming

WE HAVE BEEN dreaming for all of our 3 million or more years of existence. Dreams provide an extraordinary way to process the day's events and uncover new perspectives. Many cultural creatives credit their world-changing creations to their dreams and science now believes that dreams helped evolve the very process of thought itself.In this book, Stephen Larsen and Tom Verner examine dream traditions from around the world, beginning with the oldest records from ancient Egypt, India, Greece and Australia and expanding to shamanic and indigenous societies. The authors investigate the psychology of dreaming, the neuroscience behind the dreaming brain, the Jungian perspective and the intersections of yoga and modern dream research. They show how dreams and myth are related in the timeless world of the Archetypal Imagination and how dreams often reveal the wishes of the soul. They explore the practice of dream incubation, an age-old tradition for seeding the unconscious mind to help solve problems and gain deep insights. They examine the profound role that dreams have played in the survival of exploited and persecuted cultures, such as the Native Americans, African slaves and the Jews during the Holocaust and share inspirational dream stories from exceptional woman dreamers such as Hildegard von Bingen, Joan of Arc and Harriet Tubman.Drawing on their more than 50 years' experience keeping dream journals, the authors offer techniques to help you remember your dreams and begin to work with them. They, also, explore the clairvoyant and telepathic dimensions of dreaming and the practices of lucid dreaming and shamanic dreaming. Revealing how the alchemical cauldron of dreaming can bring inspiration, healing and discovery, the authors show how dreams unite us with each other and the past and future dreamers of our world.· Examines ancient dream traditions from around the world, shamanic dreaming and the profound role of dreaming in Native American and African-American cultures· Investigates dream psychology and the neuroscience of the dreaming brain· Explores the practice of dream incubation, lucid dreaming and telepathic dreaming with tips on remembering your dreams and working with them
