Mirrors in the Dark: A Gestalt Dream Workshop (Zoom) Led by Chris Price and Sharon Terry
March 12, 2022 - April 12, 2022
A dream is a wish your heart makes when you’re fast asleep. ~Cinderella (per Disney)
In gestalt dream work, as in all forms of gestalt practice, there is no analysis, no interpretation. You, as your Inner Dreamer, are respected as the expert on your dreams. You enter and become aspects of your dream to see what reflections, messages, or possibilities you are bringing into awareness. This process is also fruitful when applied to other images: daydreams, art, stories, totems, memories. If you don’t have much recall of nighttime dreams, you can enter through these doors.
Working with dreams can take us anywhere: from the personal to the transpersonal, from problem solving to sacred space. By opening to the nuances of image, embodying through sensation and movement, exploring associations and meaning, we often arrive at a sense of insight. Who is that Inner Dreamer? How can we access this capacity to reveal what is true with such artistry? Our inner dreamers are wise enough to understand life’s complexity and mirror it back to us with simplicity. Meeting that part of yourself can be a blessing accessed by working the dreams you send yourself.
Past dream intensives have been consecutive days, diving into dream time face to face. Sweet, but not ours to do at this point. In this extended webinar format we will be seeding our dreams and harvesting them over time, interacting in many other ways and supporting each other’s dream life. For dreamwork to ripen in this format, participants need to stay steadily engaged with their dreams, and commit to sharing images with other participants. If you are ready to make these commitments, we welcome your participation.
Recording dream images daily for the two weeks before the workshop begins is required preparation. In between meetings participants will use gestalt practice to work their dreams through writing and sharing with each other online. If “online” sounds intimidating, no worries… we’ve got you covered.
