"Re:awakening ... with Chris Mann & Yvonne Ryba"

In our last episode, we heard the dream of a fiftysomething woman skating on the surface of life to avoid her troubles. In this installment we learn about the darkness this dreamer was trying to escape. Yvonne Cones explores two disturbing dreams her same then-middle-aged friend had just after the friend's "carefee" dream. Yvonne explains how these nightmares prompted her friend to finally go within to tackle heavy issues from her past so she could finally move forward into a healthier life.

In life we often have a choice: Do we skate along the surface of our beings or do we do a deep dive to learn about and work to improve our deepest selves—no matter how painful? In this episode of "re:awakening," dream interpreter Yvonne Cones looks at a friend's dream that explores this very question. This dream is the first of a series of dreams that Yvonne's friend had along these lines. Next month we'll dive into what came next on this dreamer's quest for self-discovery.

Anxiety dream can make us feel like we're in the middle of a storm. According to dream interpreter Yvonne Cones that may mean we should take shelter fast to avoid uncontrollable forces encircling us—or to take a different kind of action if the storm is within.  In this episode of "re:awakening," Yvonne will again join host Chris Mann to share two distinct anxiety dreams. One is about a tornado; the other is about an ever-expanding mouth (!). Her reads on these illuminate how we can reduce anxiety in our lives at times by taking charge and at times by letting go.

Christmas in July? Only in your dreams. Or in this case in the dream of one of the clients of our resident dream interpreter, Yvonne Cones.  This subconscious storyline involves a Hollywood scene: a swimming pool; an unstable, aluminum "Christmas-y" tree (Tinseltown, anyone?); and some script-worthy imagery and symbolism. Does the dreamer, a writer with an eye on the entertainment industry, get "in the swim" with L.A. insiders—or will she instead seek success beyond these Hollywood trappings?

Can a seemingly fragmented dream in two parts—about two different natural objects—awaken us to our spiritual place in the world? Our dream interpreter Yvonne Cones is living testament that it can. Host Chris Mann chats with Yvonne about how these mini-dreams—interrupted by a brief moment of waking up—helped Yvonne fully wake up to her own spiritual growth outside of organized religion.

An evangelical church, old thought, strained family relations, and a new baby. Dream interpreter Yvonne Ryba—aka the newly-married Yvonne Cones—connects a series of the subconscious's symbols and situations to make sense of a spiritual (but not traditionally religious) client's dream. In doing so, she gives us more tools to make sense of our own. For more of Yvonne's dream interpretation, check out season one of "re:awakening" in Chris's 2011-2013 podcast "Reimagine That!"

Yvonne analyzes a woman's dream that teems with symbols of love -- in the form of two roses that become two fireflies that become two white birds -- and includes an appearance from the dreamer's late mother, who serves here as loving guide bearing a spiritual message that good things and uplifting events are ready to materialize.

Looking for a prime example of a dramatic dream riddled with universal symbols deconstructed by a dream interpretation expert? Then grab a cup of coffee or hot tea, and sit back and listen to this episode of "re:awakening." Joining host (and WellseeingTV founder) Chris Mann, dream analyst Yvonne Ryba offers us a rare glimpse at a back-and-forth e-mail exchange she had with a woman she met while speaking on dream interpretations for her local Women's League. The woman's dream is involves a wedding, a car crash, the police, a house (a gift from her father), the police (both male and a pregnant female), a driveway, a tunnel, chipped and smeared fingernails, and even a coffee cup. What could these symbols mean in general? And how could an e-mail dialogue with Yvonne help illuminate meanings specific to the dreamer? These questions and more are answered here.

This month, dream interpreter Yvonne Ryba analyzes host Chris Mann's dream about his new blog, WellseeingTV. She connects the seemingly disjointed imagery within his sleep time vision -- storage lockers, cobwebs, spiders, a tree, vitamins, and an illuminated queen bee -- to reveal that Chris's subconscious is giving him a roadmap to develop a unique online destination that draws on past experiences while employing fresh creative energies. With WellseeingTV, Chris aims to share insightful and entertaining posts -- be they interviews, musings, podcasts, videos or other storytelling formats -- about wellbeing and television. The blog's mission is to illuminate, investigate, and celebrate the transformative power of personal vision (including dreams like Chris's!), television, and related visionary efforts in shaping our quests for wellbeing.

We all have our yin and yang—our lightness and shadow side, if you will—and as our dreams can reveal, so, too, do our astrological signs. In this episode of "re:awakening," dream interpreter Yvonne Ryba shares with host Chris Mann one of her dreams about her, her first husband and two animals representing their signs: a scorpion and a crab. But as we see here, a scorpion is not all sting. This animal's more positive aspects gave Yvonne pause for reflection on how to deal with her first husband's crabbiness.  For more of Yvonne's dream interpretation, check out season one of "re:awakening" in Chris's 2011-2013 podcast "Reimagine That!"

So your friend brings you a gift of a kitten and also leaves you a shirt in a dream. No big deal, right? Not so fast, says dream analyst Yvonne Ryba. In this episode of "re:awakening," host Chris Mann chats with Yvonne as she breaks down a simple, relatable dream with universal -- and spiritual -- themes. Yvonne's friend whose subconscious whipped up this short dream reports she awoke from this sleeptime vision feeling good. From there, Yvonne dissects the deeper meanings of the dreamy gifts, connecting them with the qualities of the giver and the receiver.

Short and seemingly silly dreams—we've all had them. But can a brief, and even ludicrous, sleep time vignette be a powerful and serious message from your spiritual self? Dream interpreter Yvonne Ryba takes a look at an odd and humorous dream she recently experienced she was told, in a large performance hall, to join the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Her response was as succinct as the dream itself. But digging deeper, as Yvonne always empowers us to do, she discusses how her dream—and likely quite a few of our own—has a very potent meaning. Indeed, her dream affirms her waking thoughts and aspirations as she embarks on a new chapter in her life as an author, traveler and, of course, spiritual seeker.

As well all know too well in today's dangerous and unstable world, bombs are weapons of destruction that can release sudden and violent energy. But do they also have this negative connotation in our dreams? Our resident dream interpreter Yvonne Ryba says not necessarily so. In this episode of "re:awakening," she reveals that bombs can, in fact, represent the dreamer's potential to explode his or her energy in creative and constructive ways. Join Yvonne and host Chris Mann as they discuss her recent dream that illustrates this intriguing duality of meaning.

Our conscious minds often visualize ideas as little light bulbs going off in our heads—but our subconscious can be even more creative in illustrating the journey from idea to its full manifestation.  Yvonne Ryba cracks open one of her recent dreams and tells us how an egg carton-dull of hatched ducklings symbolize some of her previously germinated ideas that required her nurturing to grow into fully-developed concepts and eventually fully-expressed creations.  We also examine how the hatching of animals in dreams can represent not only the birth of ideas but also the rebirth of our very selves.

Host Chris Mann and dream analyst and Science of Mind practitioner Yvonne Ryba discuss the a listener's dream rife with vivid images: bombs bursting, roadside casualties, empty buildings and freeway-zooming Segway.

Christmas to New Year's Eve can be beautiful times to eat, drink and be merry. But let's be honest: There's always that one person who doesn't leave your home early enough. In our final 2016 episode of "re:awakening," dream interpreter Yvonne Ryba examines a client's dream about her home being invaded by the ultimate irritant: actual bugs. And beyond that, the dreamer reports several strangers making themselves at home in various bedrooms of her home.  What does such a dream say about the dreamer's life at home, work and beyond? Yvonne gives us the 411 on the deeper meaning behind such unwelcome "guests" -- and our need to set healthy boundaries.

If election season has you saying, "Calgon! Take me away!"—then do we have a dream for you. In this episode, dream interpreter Yvonne Ryba goes back to 1984 to share an otherwordly dream she had that was far removed even from the Reagan-Mondale U.S. presidential race. Imagine this: the Vatican City, diamonds, a "cat" burglar and a cobblestone courtyard. Sound like a Ron Howard-directed thriller? Would you believe such adventuresome rapid eye movement sleep stories really are a window to the dreamer's soul and personality?

Short dreams can be important dreams, especially when they touch on critical issues you are experiencing in your daily life. And when the dream involves a pregnancy, you can bet it has meaning, whether figurative or literal. In this month's episode of "re:awakening," dream interpreter Yvonne Ryba analyzes a client's dream about a miscarriage. The dreamer: a newlywed (but not yet pregnant) woman who, in her waking life, works six days a week to expand her business—unfortunately at the expense of having sex with her husband. The dreamed miscarriage, Yvonne explains, is in her client's case a signal of possible trouble to come in an intimacy-challenged marriage.

Nineteen years ago on August 31, 1997, the world lost Princess Diana in a tragic car wreck in Paris. Many of us dreamed of meeting this "Princess of Hearts," but few could imagine the nightmare incident that would take her life so unexpectedly at age 36. But could some of us had a "psychic moment" foretelling the Princess of Wales' sudden passing? In at least one instance -- which dream interpreter Yvonne Ryba shares in this episode of "re:awakening" -- Diana's appearance in an American's dream on August 30, 1997, would prove, sadly, to be a premonition of the fateful circumstances leading to her untimely death less than a day later.  For more of Yvonne's dream interpretation -- including her previous analyses of dreams involving scorpions and bulls as prescient signs of the Zodiac -- check out season one of "re:awakening" in Chris's 2011-2013 podcast "Reimagine That!"

"Come and knock on our door" is music to some people's ears -- at least if they're Three's Company fans. But it depends for most of us who's doing the knocking.  In this episode of re:awakening, dream interpreter Yvonne Ryba analyzes a dream that her late husband Temperley (whom she met and married in England) had in 1997 after the couple endured numerous moves to and throughout the U.S. In Temp's dream, three gypsies come knocking on their door just as he discovers the fish and chips he's eating houses a batter-covered alligator!

What do a flooded bathroom, an ex-friend and canines have in common? They're all part of the dream we look at in this month's episode of "re:awakening."  Dream interpreter and spiritual life coach Yvonne Ryba shares with us the second dream (in a series of two) of a recently-remarried client who is looking to move beyond past disappointments and disloyalties. These themes visit the dreamer in the form of a flooded bathroom, a helpless older (and wiser) woman, a former friend and a group of (wo)man's ever-faithful best friend -- dogs. Yvonne says that in essence this dream is an opportunity for her client to identify areas of her life -- individuals and issues -- that need cleansing in the dreamer's subconscious and her conscious life.

In this episode, dream interpreter Yvonne Ryba deconstructs the subconscious messages in a client's dream that involves something we all do (whether we like to discuss it or not): pee. But the strange presence of urine in this dream is indicative of something much deeper: the client's cleansing of excess emotions as she plans to move into an important new phase of her life. The exposure she feels during the dream -- and an important dampened document she tries to hide -- are all part of her subconscious's attempt to show her how using creativity and imagination can help her overcome life's obstacles.

It's an age-old question: Are we headed the right direction in life? Sometimes the answer can be found in our dreams. Such is the case in a sleep time vision dissected in this episode by dream interpreter and spiritual life coach Yvonne Ryba. This month Yvonne looks at the first of a series of two dreams submitted by one of her clients. The first dream occurred a few months before the client's second marriage; the second dream occurred a few months after this marriage's wedding date. The first dream is especially emotional. It involves "going the wrong way" on a road, being ticketed by a policeman, finding comfort from a down-to-earth real estate agent and then seeing a sign of hope in, of all things, a cactus.

Like daily life, our nightly dreams can sometimes be complicated -- and exhausting! Often we must completely deconstruct our sleep time stories, particularly those that feel like never-ending sagas, before we can see the key parts of the big picture. In doing so, we can extract the core message. Yvonne checks in once more with one of her clients and offers up such a "puzzling" dream. This lengthy and rather incongruous dream has a lot of different parts that Yvonne breaks down. She essentially determines that dreamer was losing energy in her life. Her "leaking" or "stolen" energy takes the form in the dream of "shrinking" or stolen money. A wrecked truck and other symbols represent the dreamer's physical body and material life -- as well as her emotional and spiritual reserves. Yvonne looks at the dream piece by piece and then puts together "the big picture"--so that you can begin to do the same with your sleeping dreams and waking realities.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens is just a movie -- right? Some say Jedi is a religion. We may not be able to movie light sabers and spaceships with our minds, but can we change our lives with positive thought -- and by awakening the spiritual Force within? These are questions pondered in the third-season premiere of "re:awakening," the subconscious mind podcast with host Chris Mann and dream interpreter and spiritual life coach Yvonne Ryba.  In this episode, Yvonne dissects a dream she had about robotic alien invaders in the 1980s (hello, evil Empire) and how she devised a plan to defeat them and the fears they represented in her life as she began her journey toward becoming a licensed practitioner of Science of Mind. This dream launches our chat about how Star Wars is an allegory for life, how we are co-creators with the Force (or God ... whatever one may call the higher intelligence and universal being that is our Source) and how we can use this power for good in our daily lives.  For more of Yvonne's dream interpretation -- including her previous analyses of dreams involving scorpions and bulls as prescient signs of the Zodiac -- check out season one of "re:awakening" in Chris's 2011-2013 podcast "Reimagine That!"

It's presidential season again -- let the horse race begin! Speaking of leader-of-free-world-meets-equine metaphors, dream interpreter Yvonne Ryba shares with us a subconscious sleep-time stirring she had in the late 1990s in the midst of then-President Bill Clinton's impeachment proceedings.  The imagery in Yvonne's short but potent vision certainly appears to predict the outcome of Clinton's impeachment drama -- a decidedly different result than befell President Richard Nixon in 1974.  For more of Yvonne's dream interpretation -- including her previous analyses of dreams involving scorpions and bulls as prescient signs of the Zodiac -- check out season one of "re:awakening" in Chris's 2011-2013 podcast "Reimagine That!"

Dream interpreter and spiritual life coach Yvonne Ryba revisits a subconscious stirring from a short but potent dream she had in 1982 about a creepy crab crawling out of her couch while her then-husband, Temp, slept on the very same sofa. When is a crab just a crab -- or a scorpion just a scorpion -- or a bull just a bull? Well, in this instance, the crab happened to represent Temp's sign of the Zodiac, Cancer. Yvonne (a Scorpio, by the way) explains that this scary crustacean (an Alaskan King Crab in the dream) symbolized Temp's role as "king of the house." How he handled the crab in the dream showed Yvonne that he was in control of their home-related circumstances -- which at the time included their tentative plans to move from Britain to seize "the American Dream" in the United States. Yvonne's seemingly nightmarish dream, she says, was actually her subconscious's way of assuaging her fears.

Dream interpreter and spiritual life coach Yvonne Ryba takes a stab at interpreting a distressing dream that starts off like a spooky scene from "Psycho" (who's lurking behind that motel bathroom door?!) and ends up with a family meltdown, a stolen car and an old, discarded computer. This "dream-mare" -- half dream, half nightmare -- is rife with family dynamics, pop-culture symbolism (a "Simpsons" Hot Wheel and Spiderman plush toy?!) and disturbing imagery. What does it all mean? Yvonne goes deep into the "subconscious dictionary" to offer her illuminating thoughts.  For more of Yvonne's dream interpretation, check out season one of "re:awakening" in Chris's 2011-2013 podcast "Reimagine That!"

Dream interpreter and spiritual life coach Yvonne Ryba delves into the subconscious mind of a client preparing for all-important final exams in college. The client -- who's on the cusp of achieving her degree and beginning a career as a psychological counselor -- has asked Yvonne to interpret a dream creeping with zombified, cat-sized rats and other fear-inducing imagery. Can such a stirring nightmare have a constructive message for the dreamer? Yvonne shares instructive insights that may guide you in analyzing your own anxiety dream while awakening your ability to transform your fears into manageable challenges.

Ever have one of those strange dreams where a seemingly random animal, say, wakes you from your sleep and takes you--or sends you--on a magical journey? Our dream interpreter Yvonne Ryba (http://YvonneRyba.com) has. And as she will tell us, sometimes a goose is not just a goose. Many times in our dreams an animal can have a deeper significance, a wider spiritual meaning.  In this dream pulled from her dream journals in the 1990s, Yvonne reveals how a goose--representing feminine energy--awoke her from slumber and led her on a quest to help her "come into her own" as an intuitive counselor.

If in dreamland the ocean represents life, then in your dreams the way you navigate the ocean ought to be telling you something about your life. So says our resident dream expert and spiritual life coach, Yvonne Ryba (http://YvonneRyba.com). In this episode of "re:awakening," Yvonne goes back to her dream journals from the mid-1980s--when she was a new transplant from Britain, living in the Houston area and seeking a like-minded community of metaphysical believers. She wasn't necessarily finding that connection, and this watery dream reflects her journey.   Then Yvonne compares and contrasts a client's ocean-centric dream from the late 1990s. This dreamer wasn't quite as ready and willing to swim in the deep end of life as Yvonne was 15 years prior.

Ever had sleeptime visions of touring your "dream house" -- either an entirely new living space or a more elaborate, roomier and perhaps more organized version of your current home? According to dream interpreter and spiritual life coach Yvonne Ryba (http://YvonneRyba.com), such a dream can serve as an enligtening metaphor for how you can (re)define personal space -- physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually -- and expand your life. In this episode of "re:awakening," Yvonne shares with host Chris Mann (http://ChrisMann.TV) one of her client's multidimentional dreams about walking through and staking claim to various rooms in a multilevel new home. The dreamer, who has a history of adversity (including abuse) but high highs for empowering herself and starting afresh, encounters various family members (i.e., old issues) in her "new home." But Yvonne's client also discovers new spaces within this house (e.g., within the dreamer's new life) that seem to offer her new opportunity for expression and freedom -- creatively, sexually and otherwise.  But how to navigate this "new life"? Yvonne's analysis of the dream offers intriguing insight. For more of Yvonne's dream interpretation, check out season one of "re:awakening" in Chris's 2011-2013 podcast "Reimagine That!"

According to the Bible, God used prophetic dreams to forewarn and otherwise guide believers throughout the Old and New Testaments. But does God still speak to us through our subconscious during sleep? Dream interpreter and spiritual life coach Yvonne Ryba (http://YvonneRyba.com) says that dreams can, indeed, have a Godly inspiration and influence. As we approach Christmas, Yvonne traces prophetic dreams to Biblical times, particularly to the life of Jesus Christ. She also recalls a very palpable, prescient dream of her late first husband -- a dream so vivid and powerful that Yvonne knew it meant the couple should soon make a major move in their life for the better.   For more of Yvonne's dream interpretation, check out season one of "re:awakening" in Chris's 2011-2013 podcast "Reimagine That!"

Animal totem dream ... dream interpretor and life coach Yvonne Ryba (http://YvonneRyba.com) revisits one of her past dreams in which she encounters a protective grizzly. After having several dreams about bears, she realizes -- thanks to this potent nocturnal "movie" -- that this particular creature was, in fact, her spirit animal totem representing an aspect of herself that, at the time, needed expression.  For more of Yvonne's dream interpretation, check out season one of "re:awakening" in Chris's 2011-2013 podcast "Reimagine That!"

Dream interpreter and life coach Yvonne Ryba revisits one of her vintage dreams that reminds host Chris Mann of the old tune, "You take the good, you take the bad, you take 'em both and there you have The Facts of Life..." In her dream, Yvonne, a former teacher in England, finds herself as a Mrs. Garrett-esque instructor in an all-girls school. When one "difficult" student (hello, Jo Polniaczek!) gives her trouble, Yvonne takes her to the school's garden area to meditate. When Yvonne rises from sleep, she awakens to the notion that the problem girl was really a rebellious aspect of Yvonne that she had been neglecting -- and that meditation, Reiki and other energy work would be the answer to constructively expressing herself.

Astral travel dream ... Yvonne shares with Chris an unsettling but ultimately healing dream that she had during a turbulent time in her life in the 1990s. Short but potent, her sleeptime vision teemed with nautical symbolism, human drama and even what Yvonne describes as an out-of-body experience that served to remind her of her spiritual connection and strength.

Taking accountability ... Life coach and dream interpreter Yvonne Ryba (http://YvonneRyba.com) returns with host Chris Mann (http://ChrisMann.TV) for a second season of spiritually-minded analysis and advice in the Rising Action Media podcast "re:awakening." In this episode, Yvonne dissects a client's dream in which the client is visited by her recently-departed mother, who appears to give her a message to "think for herself." The subconscious vision, Yvonne says, encourages the client to take accountability for her life in part by standing up to her brother and holding him accountable for his bad behavior surrounding their mom's estate following her death. For more of Yvonne's dream interpretation, check out season one of "re:awakening" in Chris's 2011-2013 podcast "Reimagine That!"
