Do you want to make your own brain a safe haven? We explore the idea that healing happens when we resonate with other human beings and with ourselves. In this replay from a popular show recorded in January 2021, our guest neuroscience educator Sarah Peyton talks about how our inner voice is part of our default mode network, the automatic part of the brain that is formed by our experiences, and about how we typically model our own thoughts after our parents' mental habits. We talk about inner voices and how we can tame them by offering them empathy guesses in the mode of NonViolent Communication (NVC). Sarah offers suggestions about using these techniques to help people working with their dreams. We take a call from Jaya from Hawaii who shares a series of recurring dreams about being trapped underwater by huge waves. Sarah works with Jaya helping her to have a sense of accompaniment with these big images and with the big feelings that come with them. We end with Sarah sharing that she has been incubating dreams of beauty. Bio: Sarah Peyton, Certified Trainer of Nonviolent Communication, constellation facilitator and neuroscience educator, integrates brain science and the use of resonant language to heal trauma and nourish self-warmth with exquisite gentleness. She teaches and lectures internationally, and is the author of the book “Your Resonant Self: Guided Meditations and Exercises to Engage Your Brain's Capacity for Healing.” Her second book from W.W. Norton, “The Your Resonant Self Workbook”, is available for preorder on Amazon and will be published May 25, 2021. Her work with dreams explores how dream images unfold when we hold them with resonance.

How can we create spaces of pleasure for queer and black people? What about dream spaces? Today our guest is Tuere Khanyisa, the founder of Black Femme Brunch. She is an avid lucid dreamer and she has lots to say about the pursuit of pleasure. Tuere shares some of her intense dreams and suggests that we can use awareness of absurdity to become lucid.

Keith Salmon is a world-renowned nature videographer. He shares with Katherine how he was inspired by a series of distressing dreams to leave his academic job to become more connected to nature. He eventually found his calling as a videographer. We talk about the ability of animals to be present in their environment while humans have been sheltered from the consequences of their actions. Keith brings up the idea of Indra's net of gems as a way of thinking about this web of natural relationships and says that nature invites us to become a gem in a net of gems. We then talk about how to work with the animals that show up in our dreams. Keith recommends exploring our own associations and then also to dig into the science around these animals to find out who they really are. There are times when we can follow our dream animals into waking life by visiting their habitats. Keith then shared some of his own stories about following his dream animals into waking life, and we talk about the quality of enchantment that happens as the veil between dreamtime and awake time thins. We take a call from Sylvia from northern Ontario. She reminds us that we dream not only about wild animals, but also about domesticated animals such as our pets and also talks about how when she dreams for global healing, which is a part of her regular practice, that the dreams that come are often about nature and stillness and peace. Keith quotes several memorable passages, one from writings by Eagle Chief Letakos-Lesa of the Pawnee People, and one from David Wagoner which encourages us that when we feel lost, we should stand still and let the forest find us. And finally he quotes the following: “Once for each thing. Just once; no more. And we too, just once. And never again. But to have been this once, completely, even if only once: to have been at one with the earth, seems beyond undoing.” — Rainer Maria Rilke (Duino Elegies) We played clips from nature sound recordist Lang Elliot: the Cades Cove Coyotes and the Symphony of Loons, both of which are available on SoundCloud. Bio: Ronald Keith Salmon was raised on a small sheep farm on Vancouver Island, Canada. This intimacy with animals ignited a sense of wonder in the mystery and the miracle of the Natural World. To deepen this sense of wonder, Keith studied animal science at university—where he received a B.Sc. in Animal Science and a Ph.D. in Animal Genetics. After a tenure as a Professor of Animal Biotechnology, Keith's dreams led him to leave the academic world to engage more directly with the animals and plants who share this planet. Keith interweaves original videography, poetry, prose, sound, and song to explore the intimate relationship between the Natural World and the World of Dreams. His work represents a constellation of the insights and revelations gained through his lifelong exploration of Nature's mysteries through the lenses of both biological science and art—and his 35-year apprenticeship in the study of dreams. Keith's performances and presentations awaken a sense of wonder where the creatures in our dreams may become mentors who provide guidance on how we may walk in beauty on this earth. You can connect with Keith Salmon and see some of his nature videos at truenature.earth Live ambient music by Rick Kleffel. Show aired on July 23, 2022 rebroadcast from May 1, 2021.

Near death experiences (NDEs) provide evidence that consciousness exists outside of the body. We speak today with scientist, lucid dreamer and instigator in-chief at the International Association for the Study of Dreams, Robert J. Hoss. Bob shares evidence from his study of over 4000 published NDEs suggesting near universal experiences around death independent of religious or cultural background. Bob then relates his own lucid near death experience which was one of the factors that woke up in him his abiding interest in dreaming. We then talk about Bob's research into the psychological effect of color in both waking life and in dreams. Color often contains concealed emotions in dreams. Bob describes his research with over 4000 dreams from one subject tracking their emotional life with color in dreams. Check out Bob's free Color Questionnaire at DreamScience.org We take a call from Lucille from Cambria who wonders if she only dreams in black and white. Bob quotes studies that suggest we all dream in color and says we can learn to pay attention to the colors that are there. Bob and Katherine talk about what they are most looking forward to about the July Tucson IASD conference.

We speak about nightmares and the nervous system using an approach combining polyvagal theory and embodied experiential approaches including Gendlin's practice of Focusing. She argues that learning to find a sense of safety is not just necessary for treatment to proceed but that the sense of safety is the treatment itself. Dr. Ellis also speaks about her work on teaching clinicians to welcome their clients' dreams in therapy including why clinicians are so intimidated by dreams. These simple techniques can also be used when sharing dreams with friends and partners. Such dream-sharing has been shown to increase a sense of intimacy and trust in the relationship. We end with Leslie helping me to unpack my dream of being a zombie in a compound and seeing a dancing half-mechanical elephant. BIO: Dr. Leslie Ellis is a leading expert in embodied experiential approaches to working with dreams and nightmares. She is author of 'A Clinician's Guide to Dream Therapy' and offers a range of online and zoom classes for professionals wanting to deepen their skills in working with client dreams.

Metaphors and the Self in a Zombie Pandemic Dream. We talk with Professor Jeannette Mageo, PhD about her lifelong work and many books on dreams and also about her upcoming keynote presentation at the IASD conference in Tucson in July. Jeannette lived in Santa Cruz for years getting her PhD in the UCSC history of consciousness department and has a fond spot in her heart for the town. We discussed the idea that Jung's views, though typical for the time, would currently be described as racist. As part of her position with Washington State University, she has an extensive dream collection and describes the three typical kinds of dream metaphors that she finds: sensory, cultural and personal. Typical American metaphors include the American dream model for achieving success and the pin-up model of feminine sexuality. We talk about how doing our inner work contributes to cultural evolution and how nightmares are usually about threats to our identity. We take a call from Skyler in Pullman WA who shares with us some of her research into how dreams changed pre-pandemic to during the pandemic. BIO: Jeannette Mageo is Professor of Anthropology at Washington State University.  Her work focuses on dreaming and the self, on child development, and on how subjectivity, identity, and emotion evolve out of cultural and historical experiences. Her manifold writings on dreams show that cultural models tie the most profound aspects of subjectivity to politics and public culture, inscribing relations of privileging and marginalization within the self that generate anxiety and resistances registered and negotiated in the imaginary realm. Professor Mageo has published 11 books with major academic presses, including 4 on dreams. Find her here: https://anthro.wsu.edu/faculty-and-staff/jeannette-mageo/ Her books include: Jeannette Mageo. 2022. The Mimetic Nature of Dream Mentation: American Selves in Re-formation.

Lucid dreaming and dream-inspired music. Our guest this week is host of the podcast "The Dreams That Shape Us." Steven Ernenwein's interest in dreaming started with a spontaneous lucid dream he had in college. He shares it with us and how it changed his life, moving him toward a place where he has grown deeper into trusting his inner voice and an awareness that this is a spiritual universe. We talk about whether all of a dreams parts are parts of the dreamer or whether outside influences appear in our dreams. Plus, Steven talks about the ethics of controlling your lucid dream and describes his voyage with nightmarish characters from vanquishing them to learning to have compassion for them. We talk a call from Ray from Santa Cruz with questions about lucid dreaming. Steven has suggestions about how to address the dream consciousness in the dream once lucid. We end by talking about his podcast The Dreams That Shape Us and about his presentation at the upcoming IASD conference in Tucson in July. BIO: Steven Ernenwein is a dream-inspired hip hop/singer songwriter and has been a dreamworker and avid lucid dreamer for the past 17 years. Steven also cohost's the storytelling podcast, The Dreams that Shape Us, with J.M.

We know that humanity originated in Africa. Africa is therefore at the root of all that makes us human: our spirituality, civilization, arts, sciences, philosophy, and even our conscious and unconscious minds. Today we welcome back poet and author Dr. Edward Bruce Bynum. We talk about his new book Our African Unconscious: The Black Origins of Mysticism and Psychology and about what he will be presenting at his welcoming keynote at the IASD Tucson conference in July. Bruce starts by marveling about how little we have changed biologically in 50,000 years yet how far we have come culturally and scientifically. We talk about how mysticism emerges out of physical and biological experiences and about the flexibility of our experience of time. We go into the history of mysticism and how it was not always dominated by old, white men including discussion of female priests of the ancient Asclepion temples and the growing modern recognition of Native Americans and other aboriginal cultures. We touch on OBEs, NDEs, precognitive dreams and pyramids as places if initiation. We take a call from Ray from Santa Cruz who brings up topics of life after death and past lives. He shares a short, powerful dream about a scarab. Bruce ends by reading his poem, “I dream”. BIO: Edward Bruce Bynum, Ph.D., is a licensed psychologist and Diplomat in clinical psychology. He is nationally certified in biofeedback and is a senior fellow in the National Association for Applied Psychophysiology and Biofeedback. His focus is psychosomatic medicine, hypnosis and individual psychotherapy, and he is currently in private practice in Hadley Massachusetts. His most recent books include Our African Unconscious, Dark Light Consciousness (both of which are now available in audio form) and The Dreamlife of Families. New poetry books include The First Bird, The Magdalene Poems, The Luminous Heretic, and Gospel of the Dark Orisha. He recently received an APA award for “an outstanding and lasting contribution to the exploration of the farther reaches of the human spirit”. Contact him at ObeliskFoundation.com.

Want to bypass your standard train of thought and get unstuck? Sleep on it! We talk about how dreaming is a kind of supercharged brainstorming with today's guest Nicoline Douwes Isema who calls her work Thinking in Your Sleep. We start by talking about how when we are in a state of focused thinking, the brain can't do all of the maintenance things that it needs to do, plus it's not free to be creative! Enter the dreams which provided rich fields of creativity and brainstorming. Niko speaks about how we think our thoughts are linear and how thoughts help us decide what to do when actually thinking is more like a good press agent that explains what we just did. And did you know that intention setting can be as simple and as natural as worrying about a problem? Niko is passionate about dream sharing and gives simple steps that we can all do to support people when they share their dreams with us. Nicoline is very active on Clubhouse as @dreamexpert. You can find her there or at ThinkinginYourSleep.com BIO: Nicoline Douwes Isema is a Dutch dream expert and sleep activist. She is on a mission to help everyone wake up with new ideas and fresh insights. Since beginning her work on dreams over 15 years ago, Nicoline has co-authored a book in Dutch which teaches people to interpret their own dreams, and has been frequently featured on radio, podcasts, television, and in print in both Dutch and English, promoting the power of intentional dreaming.

Re-creation through recreation. Our guest is Rev Ryan Althaus and topics include mental health, spirituality and psychedelics. Ryan starts by describing his history with mental health issues and says his goal now is to get his laugh back by recognizing that maybe he is not crazy but kooky. He describes some of his psychedelic experiences and how they helped him to learn how to surrender and to open to more of a sense of playfulness and innocence. We touch on yoga, breathwork, spirituality and daydreaming. We end by going back and forth sharing our recent dreams.

Freud, Jung, Perls, Taylor and Hillman. So many dream experts are old white men. Today we talk about the importance of supporting a movement towards inclusion and diversity within the historically white field of dreamwork. Our guests are brother and sister team Andrusa Lawson and Sahlah Dubel, founders of Divine by Design. Our guests start out talking about surviving their childhoods in inner city Baltimore including poverty, living with substance abusers and racial violence. We talk about what Obama called "the original sin" of slavery in our country and about how we are working out cultural issues in our dreams as well as own personal psychological issues. We touch on the dangers of Euro-centric thought and barriers to support to people of color including cost, difficulty finding practitioners with similar experience and the priority of survival over growth. We also talk about silence as a catalyst for change, working with intuition and the power of community in creating change. They end by describing their vision for a sacred space dreaming group. We take a call from Santa Cruz local Ahlene with a dream to share in which she found herself being guided down lengthy dark halls. Sahlah and Andrusa suggest that she pay attention to the feelings in the dream and consider that these are the key gifts of the dream. Perhaps "the seeing is in the doing": no interpretation needed. BIO: Andrusa and Sahlah come from a family of exceptional dreamers. Growing up in inner-city Baltimore meant balancing the need for spiritual growth against the realities of homelessness and exposure to substance abuse. Their journeys led to exploring immersive meditation practices (including Tibetan, Jungian, and Amazonian practices), strategies for detoxification, the healing qualities of movement, song, prayer, and the elements of Nature. Andrusa and Sahlah are co-founders of Divine By Design, a social benefit corporation dedicated to supporting the resilience of communities. Their lucid dreaming workshop series entitled, AWAKE, shares practical techniques and tools to navigate dreaming experiences. They are now members of the International Association for the Study of Dreams participating in the 2022 cohort of the Dreams and Ethnicity course. https://www.divinebydesign.org https://www.facebook.com/DivinebyDesignTeam/ https://www.instagram.com/divinebydesigninc/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFQXeQ0U2gd4GGyryWATulg/abou director(at)divinebydesign.org We play clips from the following two guest-selected songs:  Weightless by Reina Williams, Black is the Colour by Tia Blake, Breathe by Sweet Honey in the Rock.

Our guest says that she likes to view dreamwork as a kind of puzzle where the goal is to decode what waking life situation the dream is referring to. Layne describes and gives examples for her six point method of dream entry. The points of entry are feelings, plot, word play, symbols, repetition and action: what is the dreamer doing in the dream. Layne works with one of Katherine's dreams in which she poops more even though in the dream she said she has already had a bowel movement. Under Layne's guidance, Katherine realizes that there is more to say to herself around her feelings of shame around liking to be in control. We take a call from Paula who asks What is the use of old dreams? She shares an old dream that she was curious about in which there are alligators next to her RV. Paula realizes this brings up feelings around her incipient retirement. Layne is offering a three week dream group starting April 23. Sign up here for that workshop: TheDreamAnalyst.com/private-dream-group/ BIO: Layne Dalfen, author of Have A Great Dream, Book 1; The Overview and Have A Great Dream, Book 2; A Deeper Discussion has lectured at Concordia University in Montreal since 2005. She has a Certificate in Gestalt Counseling and was a Board Member of The International Association for the Study of Dreams (IASD). Besides numerous TV, radio, podcast, and speaking appearances, Layne writes monthly columns at OprahDaily, Psychology Today, and Hampton Sheet. Her goal is to introduce the general public to the value of understanding the language of our sophisticated unconscious mind.

How dreams help us recreate our own stories is a kind of nighttime narrative therapy. Also the direction that the dreams are leading us is not always where we want to go! Our guest today Larry Sorkin reads several of his dream-inspired poems and shares some of his life-changing dreams. He also explains why he believes that amplifying dreams (such as creating poetry around them) is preferable to more reductionist ways of working with them. We take a call from previous guest Gilda Syverson who describes that much of the value in creating a poem comes during its revision and in noticing what is uncomfortable. You can find the show we did with Gilda January 10 at https://ksqd.org/ancestral-dream-poetry-with-gilda-syverson/. BIO: Larry Sorkin has taken a Jungian and depth psychological approach to dreams for over forty years, strongly influenced by the work of James Hillman and Stephen Aizenstat. While enjoying a dream group as one way to amplify dreams, his primary approach is through active imagination that comes from writing poetry. He doesn't so much work with dreams as the dreams work on him, profoundly changing his life. He often holes up on his ridgetop overlooking the North Carolina Piedmont, daydreaming into the fields and onto paper. His poetry book Uncomfortable Minds came out in 2021. You can contact him at his webpage LarrySorkin.com We play clips from the following two guest-selected songs: Ambient music created by Rick Kleffel new every week.

Have you found success but not fulfillment? We speak to Dreamworker Lera Chacon who has experienced that we can be blocked by trauma that is unhealed and even unremembered. We talk about her soul-centered approach to dreamwork which heals trauma and reconnects us with exiled parts of ourselves. She describes how she started paying attention to dreams when her twin sons had bad nightmares when they were young. We talk about how dreams helped her discover her trauma and how that helped her to find more of a sense of purpose and joy in life. Lera worked a dream with Katherine about a woman who finds her house full of opinionated women that look like her. We also take a call from August from Washington who shared a dream about bubbles with only top halves and seeing images of two churches in the sky. BIO: Lera Chacon succeeded as a school psychologist, as a customer service manager and as an entrepreneur and still felt unfulfilled. What she was looking for, really, was not success but the healing of an unrecalled trauma at age two. She became a Reiki Master and Teacher in 1998 and began to heal her body's reactions to the trauma. At the same time she began working with her dreams to heal her heart. In 2009, she began deeper work with a dreamwork community and a personal facilitator. Her radiant two-year-old self now feels seen, heard and loved, and there is an end to seeking. As a natural extension of her own healing and training, Lera is now a Dreamwork Facilitator, helping others toward their own healing and fulfillment. You can find Lera at SoulCenteredDreamwork.com We play clips from the following two guest-selected songs: “I Will Never Leave You” by Jim Meyer and “You Can Relax Now” Performed and written by Susan McCullen.

What would the world be like without shame? Today's guest Santa Cruz sculptor Maren Sinclair Hurn describes a dream in which she sees that her daughter has nails piercing her eyelids. This dream inspired her to create faces that helped her come to terms with her own shame of sexuality. You can find pictures of her sculpted faces below and on the episode page. You can also visit Maren's studio at the Tannery on First Friday art nights. Maren begins by talking about some early dreams including one in which an old woman tells, "You should go to art school!" She has been an sculptor artist every since with art degrees from Cabrillo College, UC Davis and Montana State Univ. We talk about Carlos Santana and his suicidal shame around sexual molestation and about the difference between guilt and shame. We take a phone call from Jan from Santa Cruz who shares what she calls "a relieving dream" about calling to a black dog, "Katrina, Katrina, Katrina!" and the dog running joyfully towards her. BIO: Maren Sinclair Hurn. We came close to losing musician Carlos Santana to suicide because of his unresolved shame around being molested as a child. With witness, he became whole again and shared his story with the world. Understanding her own shame began a few years ago when Maren dreamed of a 5-year-old girl eagerly flashing her eyelids. Each lid had been pierced with a nail. This dream was a disturbing image that she could not ignore and helped her get in touch with shame around her own sexuality. Maren will soon be sharing her sculptures in middle schools where she hopes they will inspire frank discussions around shame. marensinclairhurn.com We play clips from the following two guest-selected songs: Mamuse, Strange and Wonderful and Santana, Oye Como Va.

Happy New Year! We start by speaking about announcing dreams where pregnant women dream about their children-to-be and segue to how the body holds memories even from pre-verbal experiences such as childbirth. We touch into visitation dreams then shift over into talking about Kim's diagnostic dreams and the advice she received from them during her recent healing experiences. We then talk about the dream-based practices that Dr. Mascaro recommends including sleep hygiene, meditation, dream journaling and making dream art, as well as joining a dream group. We also talk about synchronicities and how working with dreams helps us to deepen our intuition. We end by speaking about the upcoming IASD conference in Tucson, July 17-22. The deadline for proposing a presentation is coming up at January 10. Look into the details of the conference here: https://iasdconferences.org/2022/ BIO: Kimberly R.
