And another one in Bath post-Easter on 16/17 April 2016.
And great news: I will run my first dreams workshop in
Oxford on 19/20 March 2016.
This two day workshop will be for a group of ten participants maximum. It will consist of four seminars of 0ne and a half hours duration, and ample breaks in between.
Each session will include a teaching element and, most importantly, hands-on dream interpretation in the group setting. So bring your own dreams, or dreams of clients, or family members.
The workshop is suitable for anybody with either a private or professional interest in dreams.
The group interpretations will be made in the spirit of mutual respect and appreciation of the dreamer's privacy and sensitivity.
My workshops are great fun as I love teaching and enabling a non-threatening learning environment. The interpretation of dreams, by the end of the day, is an art form, an art form which can be learned.
The workshops are designed for the enjoyment of learning together, to share in a friendly environment, to help participants to overcome their uncertainties in understanding dreams, and, most important of all, to gain a sense of the sheer beauty of dreams. And where there is a learning community with a shared task of self-reflection, there will be a lot of laughter, excitement, and the serenity and stillness of insight.
