Instructor: Donna Remmert
Class Term: ; enroll in this class
Synopsis
This is a course in remembering, recording, and interpreting dreams.
Class Description
The material for the class includes a sixteen-page booklet (emailed as a Word document to each student) that will cover a workshop agreement, Jungian dream theory, techniques for remembering a dream, ways to record a dream, and a process, using a six-step approach, for interpreting a dream. Working in a Yahoo group, participants will discuss the material in the booklet, get to know one another, submit dreams for discussion, and learn how to develop writings from their dreams. The instructor and the participants will suggest possible dream interpretations for each dream submitted. Through discussion and writing, participants will learn how to develop their own interpretations and how to apply this knowledge to life writing. They may also feel ready to start a dream group in their community.
This workshop is being offered in consecutive segments. Students may register for only the first four units, then may choose to register for the second four.
