The Dream Sourcebook Journal - A Guide to the Theory and Interpretation of Dreams - Gift Edition

464 Pages Indexed. A 1998 reprint of the 1995 Edition published by Lowell House. Blue laminated boards with yellow lettering. No noted defects. The Dream Sourcebook features you as the source of your own dream world. This book explores the myths and facts about dreams, dream physiology, the place of dreams in different cultures, the interpretation of dream symbols, and the relation of dreams to psychic phenomena, presented in a broad perspective that enables you to apply these many theories and ideas to your own dream experiences. In the final chapters, there are opportunities to use your dreams: to interpret and adapt them in ways that enhance your creative mind, increase your waking productivity, ease your troubled psyche, improve your physical well-being, and build a connection with the world community through shared dreamwork. Your dreams, then, become your teachers, educating you on the subject of yourself and training you to become the expert authority on your own desires, fears, conflicts, and joys. Too many times we underestimate ourselves as experts and specialists, ignore our instincts and abilities, and instead look to other authorities who appear to know more, seem to be better educated, or are just more vocal with their opinions. But now, with The Dream Sourcebook as a personal consultant, you can acquire the tools you need to become your own expert, to trust your knowledge and interpretation of your own dreams. After all, an expert is not someone who fails to consult outside resources, but rather someone who knows what resources are available and how to use them. Experts are not afraid to ask questions or request assistance. They admit what they don't know and are committed to discovering the answers. Dreamers who come to trust themselves as experts on their own dreams have an easier time interpreting their dreams and trusting the clues they get while dreaming.
