We are sitting down today with Stephen at his home in Santa Barbara. Among other things, he is the founder of Dream Tending and the Academy of Imagination in California. He's a depth psychologist and he has been exploring dreams for over 4 decades. He conducts dreamwork and imagination seminars and workshops throughout the world, including presentations to the UN and to legislators in the US. We dive into the language of dreams, hearing the imagery and the intelligence of the planet learned through the dreaming state. He explains the imperialistic impulse in our dreaming and the importance of asking the questions in the dreaming state. We learn about the witnessing presence, treating the dream as the very beginning: the “ongoingness of the conversation” and “the difference that makes all the difference”. And we talk about leaning forward with curiosity in facing malevolent dream characters and “allowing the creativity that is indigenous to come to life”. A trip. Ask yourself, “who is dreaming the dream?” For other episodes on dream talk, see Antonia Mills (ep88), Athena Laz (ep100), Kenneth Oppel (ep106), Fr.

When we're children, we're encouraged to use our imagination. Yet over time, we tend to leave the imagination behind and emphasize logic and rational thinking. In this podcast, Tami Simon speaks with Pacifica Graduate Institute founder Stephen Aizenstat, Ph.D., about reclaiming the vast resources of our imagination and boosting what he refers to as imaginal intelligence.  Covering fascinating insights in his new book, The Imagination Matrix, Tami and Professor Aizenstat discuss: imaginal intelligence—the capacity to evoke imagination; how curiosity opens a different quality of being in the world; imagination and the neuroplasticity of the mind; the Dig—Aizenstat's term for journeying into the matrix of the imagination; the practice of Dream Tending; active imagination and the work of Carl Jung; the autonomy of the deep imagination; two questions that shift us from the person-centric view of our dreams; the sense of support and belonging we find through dreamwork; how imagination evokes innovation, creativity, and motivation; the four quadrants of the Imagination Matrix—Earth, Mind, Machine, and Universe; “the place of confluence” and accessing the gifts of the imaginal realms; dreamwork as complementary medicine; the Wounded Healer; listening to the stories coming forward at this time in human history; and more.

Our dialogue begins with the concept of the inner journey, ignited by curiosity, as seen through the lens of Dr. Aizenstat. A masterful storyteller, he intertwines compelling narratives from both his personal and professional realms, offering a glimpse into his distinctive worldview. Our conversation reveals the notion of 'genius' residing in each individual, transcending the bounds of the extraordinary. Dr. Aizenstat shares enlightening stories that demonstrate how engaging with our imagination can propel us beyond mere rationality, leading us into a life imbued with soulfulness and fulfillment.

Dr. Barbara Bain is Upper Klamath Shasta-Hawaiian-Anglo living on Chumash and Upper Klamath Shasta lands. She is an enrolled member of the Shasta Indian Nation of Northern California and an Indigenous psychologist actively working in the field of decolonial Indigenous psychology. She holds a PhD in Depth Psychology, a Masters of Science in Cultural Resource Management, and an advanced certification in Dream Tending with master dreamworker Stephen Aizenstat. Dr. Barbara Bain is considered to be one of the top 40 dreamworkers in the world today.Barbara publishes, teaches, and presents on dreaming and themes in Depth psychology, as well as issues of significance to Indigenous peoples. She offers individual and group dreamwork consultations and workshops, and employs both Jungian and Indigenous approaches to dreamwork. Barbara empowers individuals, organizations, and communities to reconnect with dreaming as a way to restore balance between the sacred and natural worlds, and to access personal calling and life purpose. Dr. Barbara Bain lives in Santa Barbara, California with her two sons and can be reached at her consulting practice, Indigenous Awakening Consulting: https://www.IndigenousAwakening.com/In both Indigenous and Western philosophy there exists the idea that we are simultaneously dreaming with our material world and the unconscious. From an Indigenous perspective, the “unconscious” is the sacred world. I take this Indigenous approach to working with individual dreams, group dreaming, and the dreams of organizations. I offer professional individual and group dreamwork, and a social dreamwork process called Community Dream Matrix.Social and individual dreamwork is an ancient practice. Dream societies across the planet once existed, and what they dreamed were critical to the wellbeing of their peoples. Aligned with this understanding, my work pivots on the idea that dreaming and dreamers continue to hold critical contemporary value and relevance to human life and the wellbeing of earth itself. We are always dreaming, we dream with the world, and with other worlds.More about Liz-Work- https://www.lizshealingtouch.com/Radio Show- https://www.voiceofvashon.org/raise-the-vibePodcast- https://www.buzzsprout.com/958816Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/raisethevibewithlizInstagram- https://www.instagram.com/raisethevibewithliz/Support me on Patreon- https://www.patreon.com/user?u=43081730Thank you!Support the show

“My favorite part is when you and the guest talk about example dreams.” ← If you're a listener who's said that, this one's for you. In this New Moon episode, I work one of my own dreams live with guest dreamworker Claudia DeBorde. She takes me on a Dream Tending walk through a dream I titled Time Travel. We talk briefly about her approach to dreams, our love of stories, and how we can play “host” to the figures in our dreams. Then, rather than keep talking ABOUT dreamwork, we get right into DOING dreamwork. Claudia has been studying Dream Tending with Stephen Aizenstat for 25 years, so she brings a wealth of experience to this. As you listen, I invite you to notice Claudia's gentle, curious way of walking through the dream with me, pausing me a couple of times to sink into a particular moment or description before the action of the dream continues. After our dreamwork, I'll conclude this episode with some reflections I've had since talking with Claudia. Re-listening to this recording helped bring home more of the ah-ha moments: about the relationship between my past and my present, taking note when I'm in a state of “high alertness,” why we label things “good” or “evil,” and what I hope to hand over to the future when I become part of the past.Show notes: thedreamersden.org/19

Although dreams can be intensely personal, they can also be powerful when shared.

In this episode, she shares her journey with dreaming: her academic work at Pacifica Graduate Institute; the study of Dream Tending and Embodied Imagination; her own cancer diagnosis, treatment and recovery; supporting other cancer patients at the Charlotte Maxwell Clinic; and a respectfully slow curiosity about dreamwork traditions in other cultures.I love the glimpse Katherine gives into the process of Embodied Imagination (developed by Robert Bosnak). She describes how dreamers go into a hypnogogic state and experience the embodied sensations of a potent dream image. You'll hear about “anchoring the embodiments” offered by a dream, creating "something new" within the dreamer: the gift from the dream.Embodied Imagination is a one-on-one process with a completely different flavor from group dreamwork. I think you'll enjoy hearing about another of the many ways to engage with your own dreams. You'll also hear one of Katherine's own dreams. It's an example of a dream with a “helper” showing up during cancer treatment. Toward the end, we talk briefly about Katherine's interest in indigenous, mystical, and shamanic approaches to dreamwork. Click Play now and enjoy the conversation.Click here for show notes.

Il Dr.Stephen Aizenstat,psicologo clinico e psicoterapeuta è presidente fondatore del Pacifica Graduate Institute. Per più di trentacinque anni ha indagato la capacità di guarigione dei sogni attraverso lo studio della psicologia del profondo e un personale percorso di ricerca. Ha collaborato con Joseph Campbell, James Hillman, Marion Woodman e Robert Johnson, oltre che con maestri appartenenti a culture indigene di tutto il mondo. Ha inoltre tenuto centinaia di seminari di lavoro sul sogno negli Stati Uniti, Asia e Europa.In italiano è stato pubblicato il suo importante lavoro: Vegliare il sogno, Teoria e pratica del Dream Tending, da Moretti&Vitali.Il Dream Tending si colloca in una interessantissima e fertile zona di mezzo, fra le consolidate teorie psicanalitiche occidentali sul sogno (il percorso di formazione psicologica di Aizenstat segue linearmente la tradizione classica occidentale con le teorie di Freud, Jung,...) e le antiche tradizioni sciamaniche.È una tecnica in cui il Sogno si trasforma letteralmente in materia viva, da amplificare, accudire, animare, con cui entrare in una relazione profonda ed aperta._______"Si raccontano favole ai bambini per fargli addormentareagli adulti per farli svegliare"www.lupoecontadino.it

Tami Simon speaks with Dr. Stephen Aizenstat, the founding president of Pacifica Graduate Institute and a pioneer in the study of dreams. Dr. Aizenstat has explored the power of dreams using depth psychology and his own research for 35 years. With Sounds True, he has created the audio program DreamTending: Techniques for Uncovering the Hidden Intelligence of Your Dreams.
