On
Monday, July 20 Dream analyst, David Rivinus, will facilitate a one-day
workshop on dream interpretation at the Holiday Inn and Convention Center in
Springdale, Arkansas. The workshop, sponsored by Ozark Mountain Publishing,
will begin at 9:00 a.m. and end at 5:00 p.m. with a lunch break.
The
workshop will begin with an introductory overview of the principles and
techniques of dream interpretation. This will be followed by attendees working
to interpret sample dreams that Rivinus will provide. When understanding and
confidence in the techniques have been established, Rivinus will invite
participants to share any dreams they would like worked on.
“This
is the part of the workshop that gets interesting,” says Rivinus. “Up to this
point, it’s been about theory and hypothetical examples. Now it gets real.”
According
to Rivinus, dreams are communications from the subconscious mind. Their
purpose, although multifaceted, is largely to help elucidate internal
conflicts. He says, “Often we find ourselves conflicted between what we want to
do and what we feel we ought to do.” When that happens, the mind dramatizes the
conflict in a dream, often with a strange, surreal plot.
Among
the techniques that participants will practice at the workshop will be learning
to identify and interpret symbols. “Dreams speak in the language of metaphors,”
says Rivinus. “Learning to understand that language is key to uncovering the
dream’s message. It’s not a difficult language to learn, but it does take
practice.”
Another
concept that will be emphasized at the workshop is Rivinus’s own theory that
the dreaming process goes on during the day while we are awake. “Most people
associate dreams with sleep,” he says, “but they occur in our awakened hours as
well.” According to him, the same symbolic images that we associate with the
dreams we have during sleep, also occur during the day. “You can take any
incident that happens to you during the day and interpret it like a dream. The
same communication from your subconscious takes place, and you can gain just as
much insight from the event.” He says that the important incidents to pay
attention to are the experiences we have that are unpleasant or strange.
David
Rivinus is a dream analyst with over three decades of international experience,
and he is the author of the book “Always Dreaming.” For more information about
