Dream to Waken

Dream to Waken: A Workbook and Guide
for Dreamers, Dream Groups and Therapists
By Sheri Ritchlin, Ph.D.

This book brings together decades of dream work and the development of a particular
methodology which has been used effectively by dreamers and therapists alike. Its
straight-forward presentation invites readers to awaken to a deeper and richer life through
dream work and provides insights into their healing and transforming power. Exercises are
offered to expand understanding of the role of various dream elements such as landscape
details, structures, objects, vehicles, animals and people.

Basic ideas of Jungian and Gestalt dream work are introduced to be applied in practical ways
by individuals and groups. These include archetypes, individuation, the night sea journey,
anima and animus. But these are presented very simply and always with directed insights
into how they may be applied by dreamers. Dream examples are offered throughout the book
as well as an extensive list of further resources.
