Do you look for hidden messages in dreams, oracle cards, or even tea leaves? If so, you’re not crazy and you’re surely not alone. It’s natural–and often very comforting–to gain “mystical” insights and assurances that help us navigate this wild journey of life. In fact, the art of studying dreams and other forms of psychological and spiritual analysis has been practiced by humans for thousands of years. When we mindfully slow down to listen to our dreams–to really pay attention to them–we can discover their messages. From helping you get unstuck to showing you a path forward, dreams have the power to help you learn, grow, and lead your best life.


Join Dr. Carla Manly and dream expert Dan Lawrence—psychoanalyst and consultant—for an eye-opening exploration of the fascinating realm of dreams, imagination, and the creative world. Topics discussed include dream analysis, relationships, the body-mind-spirit connection, numinosity, imagination, psychotherapy, synchronicity, depth psychology, Carl Jung, dream architecture, technology, patterns, dream technology, creativity, play, intergenerational patterns, the intergenerational transmission of violence, tarot cards, oracle cards, Zen, mat surfing, and dreams.
