How Your Dream Patterns Can Help You Change Your Life with Jonson
Miller

We’re all fascinated by our dreams, but when it comes to
interpreting them, how accurate can dream dictionaries be?
According to dream expert Jonson Miller, “Almost every book on
dream interpretation emphasizes the interpretation of individual
elements of individual dreams. But dreams contain much imagery that
is not meaningful or interpretable.” In his book, Dream Patterns:
Revealing the Hidden Patterns of Our Waking Lives, Jonson Miller
breaks through the noise created by physical sensations, events of
the previous day, intrusions of conscious thinking, and other
stimuli to reveal repeating imagery and themes that reflect
unrecognized patterns in our waking lives. Knowing how to identify
the significant, meaningful patterns in our dreams, and how to use
that knowledge not only liberates us from them, but also empowers
us to make positive changes in our waking lives.

Jonson Miller joins Sandie to discuss:

~ The role of consciousness in our dreams
~ Why the value of dreams is in their long-term patterns
~ How to use long-term patterns in your dreams to recognize and
change unhelpful patterns in your waking life
~ Some individual dreams really are significant on their own
(Jungian “big dreams” and mythological content)
~ How to start working with your dreams… and more.
