Course Description

In this excellent course Dr. Leslie Ellis, an expert in focusing and dreamwork, shows you how to sense into your dreams and find help in them. Leslie reveals, one step at a time, the great power of this gentle way of feeling into a dream, and through it, your own life.

Dreams begin in the body. With their own language they give us an honest picture of what’s unlived or off balance in us and our world. They also show us a world of possibilities where anything can happen. With somatic dreamwork we learn to find help in unexpected places in a dream. We begin to get a feel for where our next growth step might be.

Eugene Gendlin developed a pioneering method of getting a sense of yourself from the inside called “focusing”. Gendlin also created an experiential approach to dreams that synthesizes the work of Carl Jung, Sigmund Freud and Fritz Perls. Dreamwork and focusing are both doorways to the body’s immense and subtle implicit knowledge.

Dr. Leslie Ellis has decades of clinical experience integrating Gendlin’s focusing and dreamwork methods with the work of other contemporary pioneers in the field of dreamwork. She incorporates the latest research on somatic trauma therapy and rescripting nightmares into her work.

In Leslie’s classes we witness how life changing it can be to sense inward, find what’s present and that “something new” that wants to come forward. Join Leslie as she digs in deep for the clinician, and at the same time offers simple guidelines that anyone new to working with their dreams can use with great results on their own.

An extensive companion guide recapping each class is provided.
