You had the most amazing dream last night. It spoke to your highest aspiration, your most secret wish, presenting a vision of a future that was right for you. But now, in the cold light of day, that inspiring dream is gone forever…or is it? According to Dr. Stephen Aizenstat, a psycho-therapist, university professor, and dream specialist, dreams are not just phantoms that pass in the night, but a present living reality that you can engage with and learn from in your daily life. In Dream Tending Dr. Aizenstat shows how to access the power of your dreams to:

• Transform nightmare figures into profound and helpful mentors
• Bring fresh warmth and intimacy into your relationships
• Overcome obsessions, compulsions, and addictions
• Engage healing forces of your dreams through imaginal “medicines”
• Re-imagine your career and cope with difficulties in the workplace
• Discover the potential of your untapped creativity
• See the world around you with a new and dynamic perspective
