Sylvia Brinton Perera, MA and
Aryeh Maidenbaum, PhD
Twenty five hundred years ago the Talmud, in describing the importance of understanding one’s dreams, stated that “an uninterpreted dream is like an unopened letter.” Six hundred years later, 2nd century Greek philospher and author Artemidorous wrote of dreams which are “infused into men for their advantage and instruction.” In a similar vein, Jung believed that dreams help us understand not only our past and present problems, but connect us to a deeper, archetypal level within ourselves. Additionally, during times of transition and turmoil, dreams carry images and motifs that are not only meaningful but demand our attention. In presentations and experiential workshops, Sylvia Brinton Perera and Aryeh Maidenbaum will illustrate the importance of our dreams (psychologically and physiologically) and work with participants on their own dreams to help us understand how dreams can lead to greater consciousness and help us realize our potential for growth.
