In Search Of Truth In Dreaming: An Interview With Rodger Kamenetz
What happens in a dream when a cell phone turns into a cucumber? What is it like to dream of a car that goes completely out of control? These and other questions get answered in this beautiful interview with Natural Dreamwork founder Rodger Kamenetz by Amy Frykholm from her podcast In Search Of.
The Ancient
This dream for me holds a moment of presence. There is no particular destination that I am aware of, though perhaps the dream imago of the guiding father knows where we are to go. He tells me to be attentive to him, to stay in connection. I am the child, curious, connected to my father, in his care and protection, present to a moment. The dream offers the gesture of stroking my hand across the smooth black stone, The Ancient, to remind me of this presence. Slowing down, sensual touch, innocence.
Threshold Moments In Dreams
Our dreams offer threshold moments all our lives, unique invitations of soul. These moments invite us into embodied presence and can help us align with who we truly are. Our dreams also bring light to the ways we hesitate and get caught in conditioned patterns.
Dreaming Of Our Little Ones And Loved Ones Lost
I am someone who has always been sensitive to time’s passage, and especially in the years since I have had children, I’ve tried my best to be as cognizant and as present to them and our life together as one possibly can be. Still, I wake up sometimes with the almost unbearable ache, wishing for more time, wishing I had known better.
Layers Of Contemplation
After bringing the dream images to life in a Natural Dreamwork session, a practitioner invites a dreamer to contemplate moments of a dream that have brought the deepest feeling. It is in those sacred moments of the dream that the healing medicine resides.
