Imagine getting Freud, Jung, and Hippocrates (a dream healer from around 2,300 years ago who became immortalized as the Father of Modern Medicine) into a room together to interpret a dream. They’d all have different views. Where would they agree, where would they disagree? In this episode, I meet these dream pioneers and ask them
Picture the Moulin Rouge dancers, arms linked, high-kicking the Can-can – daaa, da-da-da-da-daa-daa. Can you hear the music? Does it make you feel like getting up from your chair and kicking up your heels? The tune’s been on my mind all day since Belinda, a long time devotee of dream alchemy, posted a blog yesterday
What if you were just one small adjustment away from having the life you want? In the movie How do you know, George (Paul Rudd) gives Lisa (Reese Witherspoon) a can of Play Doh for her birthday, and tells her how Play Doh was invented. Joe McVicker of Kutol Chemicals invented a putty-like wallpaper cleaner
I have just watched a rather self-satisfied dog scare away a noisy garbage truck, as only he knows how – a volley of gruff barking and a telepathic “get off my patch or else” warning.

I was on The Morning Show this morning with Larry & Kylie, interpreting dreams. As usual, they had sent the crew onto the street to film people describing their dreams. A woman asks about her childhood dream of falling into puddles, some with sharks in them, some with dolphins. There’s a dream about refereeing a
My guest on the show is Liza, asking about her spider dream. A spider named Venus Fly Trap! As always, dreams are not what they seem, and we unearth a very deep belief connecting way back, that has been influencing the way Liza’s relationships develop and unravel. Of course we don’t leave it there. We
Bath time, when my children were very small, was great fun until the moment came to lift them from the water. They never wanted to get out. Eventually I found the happy solution. “Who’s going to take the plug out, you or me?” I’d ask. “Me! Me! I want to!” would come the unerring reply.
Is it a good thing or a bad thing to replay a dream over and over again in your mind’s eye? While many dreams slip away as soon as we open our eyes, some haunt us for days, whether we invite them in or whether we’d prefer to forget them. Why is this, and is
What you need to know is right in front of you, and in your dreams, if you know how to look. The tricky bit is that the reason you are seeing a problem instead of a solution, darkness instead of light, is that your vision is blocked by your expectations, especially your unconscious expectations.

Who dreams about you? How many dreams have you starred in, or played a cameo role? Think of all the different people who have appeared in your dreams over the years – people you know well, people you vaguely know, people you know of but have never met. People in our dreams are symbols, but
