Good book with some great suggestions...

I like the author's humor and the suggestions she offers for working with your dreams. I also enjoyed some of the dream examples she included. The best part for me was the interpretation method she outlines in which you write down the key symbols from your dream in one column, your own interpretation in a second column and then, lastly, the dream dictionary definition in the third. This correlates a lot with the method we use in the "dream group" I belong to. We really encourage each other to come up with three or four of our own words to describe each of the prominant symbols in the dream, whether objects, places or people. My four words for cat (for example) may be very different from someone elses and it is ultimately most important how I perceive the symbols.

That being said, the "introduction" section of the book was fairly short and might not be comprehensive enough for someone who is just beginning to explore their dreams. I think she did a good job in a limited amount of space and certainly covered the basics, so this would be great if you don't need a lot of direction and are looking mostly for a dictionary. A also thought it was easy to navigate with the Kindle since it had a better clickable Table of Contents than others I have bought.

Here are a couple of my own little dream tips that I have used for years and that you may find helpful:

1. To remember a dream, immediately create a couple keywords to summarize it. For example, if I briefly awake right after a dream during the night about being beside a beautiful mountain stream with my favorite pet, I repeat "stream, Boots (my cat), stream, Boots, stream, Boots" over and over in my mind until I fall back asleep. Once I wake up in the morning, if I can remember those keywords, they will bring most of the dream back with them, even the details. It may not be as fail proof as having a pen and paper right beside the bed, but it is more practical for me (and makes my spouse's night sleep a lot better too). With this method, I can get up, use the bathroom, and make a pot of coffee before I sit down to write out my dreams and I don't have to worry about forgetting as soon as my head leaves the pillow.

2. Create your own dream dictionary! This is especially helpful if you have recurring symbols, images, objects or people in your dreams. This can take some work and will definitely evolve over time but it is very helpful in giving you a place to start with a dreams interpretation. Over years of recording my dreams, developing my own interpretations and learning my own symbols, I now know that when cat is in my dream, this is a spiritual lesson. My interpretation is now jump started because I know from which angle to approach it.

Dreamer

I have been a fan of dream books forever and had one that I especially liked. However, times change and so do keywords in our dreams. I find this book to be especially helpful in analyzing my dreams. Many words are in this book that I was not able to find in other books. I am enjoying it very much.

DESCRIPTION: We live in a world of sensory overload, and people's dreams have come to reflect that complexity. No longer do people dream that they are standing naked in a room full of their peers. Instead, dreams might involve standing naked in the middle of a conference room, with a cell phone in one hand and an incoming call from Donald Trump. What's that all about? I HAD THE STRANGEST DREAM... will answer such questions and help readers break down the meaning of their dreams. 21st century dreamers will finally have the tools they need to tap into the power of their dreams in order to become more productive and tranquil human beings.
