Dream Circle

Dream Circle

Mondays 6-8pm at Dominican Center

February 16, March 16, April 13, & May 11

Cost $165

Dreams have always been an important part of a healthy spiritual life, from the Bible through the Saints.  Come learn how to listen to dreams, how to let dreams affect and shape the dreamer, and how to allow dreams to point toward blocks and opportunities in the spiritual life.  We’ll share our dreams in a confidential setting, learn various practices for working with dreams, and hold space for one another. It’s a chance to get into a habit of paying attention to this often-neglected part of our lives with the companionship of others.

This Dream Circle will be hosted by Kent Dobson.  He’s led dream workshops for the Dominican Center for the last couple of years, guides wilderness retreats for Animas Valley Institute (with a special focus on dreams), and is an Associate Pastor at Mayflower Congregational Church.

If you were a part of the Dream Circle gatherings in the autumn, you are welcome to continue to deepen your experience and integration through this spring. 

 

“We have forgotten the age-old fact that God speaks primarily through dreams and visions.”

Hints & Guesses 

“Hints and Guesses” is a line from T.S. Eliot. It seemed like a perfect idea to start conversations about spirituality, religion, doubt, sacred texts, nature, soul, love, death, and all the good stuff.
