Mirrors in the Dark: A Gestalt Dream Workshop
November 15, 2015 @ 7:00 pm - November 19, 2015 @ 1:00 pm
$450We start with the most ordinary images… “There’s nothing to this dream…” and enter the apparently inconsequential details. By opening to the nuances of image, sensation, association, movement, and meaning, we often arrive at a sense of insight.
We take that which is puzzling, cloudy, doesn’t make “any sense” and enter it sensually, finding a door to a new view. In the midst of working with a dream, an ordinary dream that didn’t stand out, we may discover a sophisticated template for understanding our path or a precise reflection of a complex dilemma that’s been overwhelming us.
Who is that Inner Dreamer, the one inside who is this clear, this insightful? How can we access this inner knowing capable of cutting through to the heart of things, wise enough to understand our complexity and mirror it back to us with such simplicity? Meeting that part of yourself can be a blessing….and you may meet this through working the dreams you send yourself.
I believe that in a dream, we have a clear existential message of what’s missing in our lives, what we avoid doing and living…
~Fritz Perls, Gestalt Therapy Verbatim
A dream is a wish your heart makes when you’re fast asleep.
~Cinderella (per Disney)
