A one-day workshop for therapists offering practical know how. We will look at basic techniques as well as exploring some theoretical ideas about working with dreams.

Among other things we will:

• Explore the different kinds of dreams and pay attention to how we notice that.

• How much it is appropriate, if ever, for us to interpret the dream world of another.

• How to find ourselves in a fluid attention that doesn’t seek to know but rather allows the dream to retain its’ secrets as well as revealing hints to dreamer and therapist.

• How to keep integrity with the dream. Do’s and don’ts.

• Ask ourselves what are our beliefs and attitudes towards our own dream world – how do we currently attend to it ourselves?

In the afternoon there will be an opportunity for experiential grounding of the material discussed in the morning. We may work together with some dreams and there may be an opportunity for participants to try out some of the methods we have looked at in a fishbowl style. It is often important to put learnings into practice as soon as possible.

Please bring at least one dream to share. Old or new dreams welcome.
