The Dreamers’ Den Series Ep 26: Owl Feathers, Stilettos and Other Footprints to Track in Our Dreams (a conversation with Bambi Corso-Steinmeyer)
Do you track the details in your dreams? Bambi Corso-Steinmeyer talks with me about why to track the recurring details in our dreams. Those themes are like footprints left behind by the qualities moving through our dreamscape – and we’re well-served by following their trails.
Bambi and I cover a lot of dreamscape ground in this episode. I realized after we spoke that I talked more than I usually do, caught up in shared enthusiasm with a kindred spirit. I love the combination of her bright positivity with her receptive listening to the cries and calls of the world, ready to take small yet profound actions on behalf of the earth.
Click Play above to hear us explore:
- what it means to track our dreams and get to know them, rather than try to interpret or define them
- “sneaky snippets” of dreams (working with dream fragments, not only with big, epic dreams)
- listening to the calls for “dream-inspired advocacy” for the earth
- tips for keeping a dream journal
- example dream tracks: those stiletto heels, a baby, owl feathers, and having trouble taking photos
- and turning to dreams for affirmations to shift our thought patterns and beliefs.
