LivingDreams

Welcome to the world of your dreams!

Dreams bring solutions. Let us know your experiences in finding solutions in your dreams.

Like any worthwhile venture, finding solutions to dreams takes dedicated practice, along with rational reasoning and listening for intuitive insights.

A major outcome assessment in family counseling is problem solving (S. Benish . “Assessing Family Interventions,” In Family Counseling for all Counselors, 2003). A major outcome of use of the PMID model is the dreamer’s ability to discover problem-solving suggestions as noted in the following:

"This method [PMID model] is especially helpful in identifying, clarifying, and resolving relationship problems. During our waking hours, we often feel frustrated that our rational attempts to solve life challenges are unsuccessful. It is then that our dreams often provide innovative and unexpected answers" (S. Krippner. Personal communication, March 2, 2001).

"By using your dreams for creative problem-solving you may also be able to increase your options and encounter new ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving that will enrich your life and actualize your potentials (S. Krippner & J. Dillard. Dreamworking, How to Use Your Dreams for Creative Problem-Solving, 1988, p. 248.)"

Keep in mind the proviso that only you, the dreamer, have the potential to know ultimately with certainty whether the suggestions you find are accurate. Also, keep in mind that the suggestions and solutions your dream brings are most often for you -- not for another.

(Above four paragraphs are from Living Dreams, Living Life, pp. 50, 51and 52.)

For demonstrations of dreamers finding solutions or suggestions in their dreams, click on FORUM in the top menu bar. Then scroll down to and click on "I just had this dream about . . . ". Then select any of the dreams and the dreamers' PMID interpretations posted by Eveland Fairfield.

For demonstrations of how you can find solutions in your dreams, take some time to apply all the PMID Steps (1 through 4, plus Step 6 [Step 6 is placed last because it only applies to relationship dreams]).
