Have you ever woken up from a dream and wondered, "what was THAT about?"

Maybe this happens to you all the time, or maybe you barely remember your dreams. Either way, we all dream.

And learning to work with our dreams from a more intentional or even therapeutic lens can be incredibly supportive in navigating complex mental or emotional states or even past or recurrent trauma in our lives.

Our dreams may have more to share with us than we perceive.

Today's guest, dreamwork and Somatic Experiencing practitioner Julie MacAdam is passionate about the world of dreams and what's possible when we begin to pay attention.

I invited her to the podcast after I attended an experiential dreamwork practice she and her partner guided. It was a powerful journey that helped me to see the beauty in something that felt quite disturbing when I woke up from my dream.

In a way, it was a healing experience. And it helped me to gain insight into he power of incorporating dreamwork into the therapeutic environment, especially when we're moving through hard things - but really even in everyday life.

So many of us have past or current traumas, recurrent stress, or are navigating relational or collective complexities.

So why not begin to explore what our dreams might be offering us? 

In this meandering conversation, Julie shares her embodied experience and also a whole lot of direction around ways you can begin finding gems in your dreams, as soon as tonight. :)
