I have suffered from nightmares my entire life. Some of my earliest memories include both absolutely terrifying and truly beautiful dreams. Since I was a teenager, I have been working on controlling my dreams through mediation and dreamwork. Even so, I still have dreams that I find odd and bizarre, while also experiencing repeating dreams for many years. There have been times during my life where the idea of going to sleep seems exhausting, and if you\u2019re anything like me, you\u2019ve kept yourself awake to avoid falling into an unwanted dream. This is where dreamwork can come into play. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this week\u2019s Daily Focus, I want to talk a little bit\nabout what dreamwork is and how we can practice it. Whether you\u2019re trying to\nget rid of nightmares, bring about specific good dreams, break the pattern of a\nfrustrating recurring dream, or learn to explore your dreams with lucid\ndreaming, there are things you can do during waking hours that will greatly\naffect your dreaming hours. Here are a few things to focus on and tips to try\nout if you\u2019re interested in doing dreamwork. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYes: I am a dreamer. For a dreamer is one who can\nonly find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn\nbefore the rest of the world.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –Oscar Wilde<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you\u2019re interested in psychic dreams, one of the best things you can do is create a dream pouch and put it under your pillow. Use a small lavender, light blue, or white pouch. You can make one out of fabric and a rubber band if you want. Fill it with Lavender, anise, and pine needles. Write down what you want to focus on, and what questions you want to be answered, then put it in the pouch. Make sure you repeat your question during the day, for this is key to saying it out loud in your dream. Make it simple enough to be a mantra and keep asking! <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAll that we see or seem is but a dream within a\ndream.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –Edgar Allan Poe<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you\u2019re having trouble telling dreams from reality,\nforgetting which details were real and which were mentioned over color-changing\ncocktails in outer space, then a dream journal is the way to go. Keep a blank\none by your bed and write things down as soon as you wake up, even if it\u2019s the\nmiddle of the night. This will help you determine patterns that you can\nrecognize both in and out of sleep. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYour visions will become clear only when you can look\ninto your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>\n–C.G. Jung<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Jung believed that our dreams were messages from the unknown and that we are all connected by them. The more time you spend looking inward, journaling, meditating, and focusing on your dreams, the more connected with them you will become, and the easier it will be to feel awake when you are dreaming. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThe pendulum of the mind oscillates between sense and\nnonsense, not between right and wrong.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –C.G. Jung<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Our dreams operate on a completely nonsensical morality scale. Try not to dwell on right<\/em> and wrong, <\/em>and instead try to focus on things that seem familiar, and things that seem unknown. One of the things I do to help make sense of the familiar parts of my dreams is making a dream map, drawing each new and recurring location from my dreams that I remember. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThe dream is the (disguised) fulfillment of a\n(suppressed, repressed) wish.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –Sigmund Freud<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n I don\u2019t hold with most of Freud\u2019s ideas, but I do agree that\nthe more time you spend focuses on something (internally or externally) the\nmore it\u2019s going to show up thematically in your dreams. This is why stress\ndreams are so popular. The more you stress and focus on one thing, the more\nlikely it is to show up in your dreams. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cPeople think dreams aren’t real just because they\naren’t made of matter, of particles. Dreams are real. But they are made of\nviewpoints, of images, of memories and puns and lost hopes.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –Neil\nGaiman<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Dreams are our brains solving problems, albeit often in\nreally weird ways. The messages we receive in our dreams are important, even if\nthe delivery system sometimes feels ridiculous. Meditating and asking to have\nclarity in your dreams can help you sort through some of the superfluous\nimagery and focus on the feelings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI think we dream so we don\u2019t have to be apart for so\nlong. If we\u2019re in each other\u2019s dreams, we can be together all the time.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>\n–A.A. Milne, \u201cWinnie-the-Pooh\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Many people believe that dreams are a cosmic way of\ncommunicating. If you\u2019re interested in dream sharing, make a dream pouch for\nboth you and your partner. Include things like lavender, gold, silver, olive\noil, and mint. Make sure you both say the same mantra before bed and be patient\nwith the results! <\/p>\n\n\n You have a life purpose. Wondering what you\u2019re meant to do? You won\u2019t know until you get a life path reading<\/a> with one of our talented life path psychics<\/a>. A life path psychic<\/a> can help you find what you love so you can love what you do. <\/p>\n About California Psychics<\/strong> Understanding Your Daily Focus I have suffered from nightmares my entire life.
