What is dream healing?

September 22, 2019

Shamanic dream healing is a continuous process of self-discovery and exploration. This spiritual and emotional healing approach has different methods, but the best way to begin to understand it is by learning about what dreams are, why we dream, what we can learn from our dreams, and the way that we dream.

What are dreams? Nobody knows for certain what dreams actually are, aside from being described as a mental experience that humans have during sleep. It has been noted that dreaming is universal, and that it is healthy for the body and the mind.

Why do we dream? The reasons for dreaming have been discussed, investigated, and debated for ages. It’s a topic that carries a deep mystical energy and this could be mostly attributed to the fact that, although humans can share types of dreams, in the end everyone dreams differently.

What happens to our bodies during sleep? Depending on who you ask, sleep occurs in cycles of 4 – 5 stages, that culminate in the REM (rapid eye movement) stage. During this stage, the body becomes temporarily paralyzed and it is when our deepest dreams occur. It has been theorized that muscle atonia evolved in order to protect humans from injuring themselves during sleep.

Does everybody dream? Yes, everyone dreams, but many people don’t remember their dreams. There could be many reasons for not remembering your dreams, for example: high anxiety or stress, poor diet, sleeping in an unstable environment, or taking certain medications. However, lack of awareness or an unconscious desire to ignore dreams might be the biggest factor in dream forgetfulness.

How can I start remembering my dreams? The best and simplest way to begin is by keeping a dream journal by the bedside table. Writing down your dreams as soon as you wake up helps you “purge” the experience. Sometimes, only one symbol or scenario will be at the top of your mind, which is perfectly natural. Other times, your dreams will feel like long, epic stories. Re-reading these experiences will help you pay more attention to what you’ve been dreaming, and will help you become aware of your dreaming patterns.

Why dream healing?

The shamanic approach to dream healing accepts that dreams are messages from the Soul.

You might be asleep but your brain is still awake, and the Soul sees this as the perfect moment to bring important messages to your attention, using your unconscious mind to conjure up images and emotions that have unique meaning to you. Be aware that your Soul knows your triggers and it will use them to grab your attention!

Although everyone’s dream language is unique, the subjectivity of the dream experience has a tendency to confuse the dreamer into believing that the dream is an external message: telepathic (dreaming about other people), psychic (knowing future events), or divine (messages from God). Although telepathic dreams are possible, dreams are usually messages from the dreamer, by the dreamer, and for the dreamer.

A popular way of practicing dream healing is through dream interpretation. During a session, the dreamer shares their dreams with an experienced individual in order to expose and discuss the perspectives and possibilities of what the dream might mean. When the dreamer opens up to these possibilities, deep insight and wisdom is recaptured from the dream – and so, the dream healing journey begins.

I think some of us are ready for a REAL wholesome time out... 😌

Ladies, how's the Summer treating you so far? It's hard to believe that we're almost halfway through the year! 😱 This might be a good time to come together for a gentle reset. 

We'll be gathering at Sunset Hill Farm in Valparaiso on 7/7 at 5:55pm, right by the fire pit. Join us for a light picnic, some stretching, introspection, and meditation!

β€’ Location: Sunset Hill Farm County Park

β€’ Time: 5:55pm (until sunset)

β€’ Free πŸ’• 

β€’ Bring your own snacks, water, yoga mat, and blanket! 

No bells or whistles, just some women hanging out. πŸ€™ 

Let me or @arinjotis know if you're stopping by! πŸ™ Much Love! πŸ’•

I turned 40 this week! πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

Every year I tell myself, "This is the year that I stop counting!" πŸ€ͺ

...As if that even matters! 🀣

I love sharing my age because, to me, every year is like a Girl Scout badge. ✌️ 

EARN those years of experience like a BOSS, my friend! πŸ™Œ

It doesn't have to be perfect in anyone's eyes, not even your own. It is what it is, and it is worthy of celebration. πŸ₯°

I lost my voice last weekend! πŸ˜–

Guiding hypnotherapy sessions was pretty much off the table for me for a few days. πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈ

Luckily I'm much better now, so I've opened up two morning slots for this week! πŸ˜πŸŽ‰

DM me for more info or Click the link in my profile to get on my calendar for a Reiki treatment, a Past Life Regression, or a Soulful Hypnotherapy sesh. πŸ’—
