We don’t understand dreams because they address us in the language of Jesus,
Shakespeare, and Einstein. The images in dreams are metaphors. The ability
to make sense of dreams is more important today than science, technology,
engineering and math – for it delivers us the enlightenment, compassion,
wisdom, creativity, and truth we need to use the STEM skills in ways that
benefit rather than destroy nature and civilization. Sheila Asato‘s "Life on Purpose, Presentation – Dreaming on Purpose”
Sheila Asato is pleased to announce she has been invited to speak at the
upcoming TEDx event in Minneapolis, hosted by Gustavus Adolphus College. In
this presentation she will share how dreams can enrich and nourish the
creative spirit while enhancing our integrative health and sense of
wellbeing.
In this issue of Hot Off the Press we will be
focusing on the importance of remembering your dreams. The intention of
this column is to publish links to evidence-based scientific articles on
the study of dreams that are written for a non-research audience.
