SUMMARY:Dreamwork Salon (In Person)
DESCRIPTION:This experiential workshop offers an introduction to the practice of group dreamwork. It’s for anyone who’s interested in their dreams\, and open to new ways of working with them in a group context  —no particular experience required. Centring creativity and collaboration\, I’ll present a number of ways to work with dreams\, inspired by Montague Ullman’s “dream appreciation\,” Jungian dreamwork\, and more. Together\, we’ll apply these techniques to the dreams that group members bring; registration is capped at six so that everyone who wants to share will have a turn. Sign up\, and learn about other group dreamwork offerings\, at bit.ly/dreamsalon or write to Heather White at groupdreamwork@gmail.com.
