What is it about?

Reports by members of indigenous dream groups and by members of dream groups in the United States have shown that many aspects of group dream sharing offer potential for healing. These aspects are unique based on cultural context and worldview. In the past, Western societies have generally avoided dream sharing due to fear, safety concerns, or lack of interest. Educational, facilitated dream sharing groups address these concerns very well. Dream-Arts take healing to another level.

Why is it important?

Group dream sharing has shown the ability to develop sympathy, understanding, self-esteem, and a sense of community. These developments support mental health and cultivate well-being. Building a facility specifically for dream sharing and dream-arts would help more people connect their inner work with dreams to their outer work in community with most healing benefit.
