To Dream a Dream

Do you dream?   I don’t mean the “watch a story while you sleep” dream.  I mean consciously taking time to sit down and dream about the future, about what you want, about what’s possible for your life.  I recently began the daily practice of dreaming.  So for a half hour per day, I dream.  One of the reasons I took on the practice was I noticed that people around me who I was asking to dream were having a difficult time with it.  It dawned on me that while I love to dream, I also had a certain level of resistance to it myself.  It takes something to sit down and wipe away the concerns and focuses of the day, and begin to dream about the possibilities.  I realized that there might just be a “dreaming muscle” that takes time to build.

Not long after, I began my daily practice; I came across a wonderful article on dreaming written by Hayden Tompkins of Through the Illusion.  She stretched my mind around the possibility of dreaming.  Check out the article here.

So I’ve begun my Dream Challenge and will report back and let you know how it goes.  For now, would love to hear some of your dreams!!!
