DREAM INFORMED COACHING
Every night when we go to sleep the other 90% of our mind, that which is most responsible for what we experience in our reality is busy processing and regulating our thoughts and emotions to bring us into a state of balance when we wake up the next day. It also appears to be incubating what later shows up in what we perceive to be reality, and so much more. By learning how to remember our dreams and to understand the dream language our subconscious mind uses, speaking in a language of metaphor and symbols, we come to truly know ourselves including this other 90% of mind which for most people is unconscious. Learning to remember and work with our dreams helps us uncover repressed memories and emotions, helpful opportunities and connections, and the most significant issues that our waking minds are not aware of which are negatively or positively influencing our life and inviting our attention. A dream informed coach partners with their client to help them learn how to make use of what is revealed in their dreams so that they can take corrective action where necessary, and positively modify their perspective, habits, actions, and the outcome of their lives.
The law of attraction is all about mastering one's mind, consciousness and frequency. It proves the fact that like attracts like. What we see in life is what we are. The best way to attract something really great into our lives and increase the frequency of synchronicities and seemingly magical connections is to feel great frequently, to feel the feeling of the wish hoped for before it is attained.
Learning how to master lucid dreaming opens the doorway to magical manifestation in the waking dream of life.
Our minds operate much like a computer which has been programmed based upon what we've been told, taught, and experienced in life. Many studies have revealed that during the first seven years of life, the core programming of a human beings consciousness is formed. For most of us, our minds were programmed with patterns and beliefs which are not true, do not feel good, and are often traumatic and not helpful.
The good news is we can overwrite the not useful programming of our minds and create a new reality in which we accept and love it all as it is where we are NOW, for no reason. Our dreams and lives will keep showing us over and over those things that are most urgently begging for change including the belief that things outside of us need to change for us to be happy until we take corrective action and awaken within the dream of our lives. Keeping a daily dream journal over time, helps us track recurring patters of thought and feeling which are inviting attention and alchemical transformation. Through various practices such as shadow work, dream and memory re-entry, perspective shifting etc. a coach helps their clients re-member and re-imagine their past experiences from various perspectives and to consciously choose how to feel about it in the moment. This often includes forgiving oneself and others to the extent that the way they feel about the past transforms and the energy they were holding into states of being which have a higher frequency such as acceptance, love, peace, understanding, curiosity, trust and joy. This not only helps us connect with and leverage the law of attraction and manifestation, it also has amazing benefits for the body, often eliminating disease in the works or already manifested and diagnosed.
A coaches job is to help their clients get from where they are to where they want to be and ultimately to find that they can never really get there because they are already there. If you think about it, what we really desire is to feel happy and good most of the time. What we pursue in life is largely influenced by our belief that the attainment of that goal will help us feel better or more secure, peaceful, fulfilled and loved. What we want most is the feeling, not the thing. Most people also want to know that they are living a purposeful life that is meaningful, and that includes accomplishing tasks and goals and creating and maintaining quality relationships with people along the way. Our dreams reveal to us that which we most deeply desire at a core, soul level, so that we can achieve what we were born to do before we die.
