TESTIMONIALS FROM EXPERTS ABOUT DREAMCATCHING
"Few
things are more vital in reclaiming the soul of our culture than to get
families to share dreams and harvest their gifts of story, mutual
understanding, and healing. Alan Siegel and Kelly Bulkeley have written a
lucid, practical, and caring guide that encourages parents to listen to
their children's dreams, help them through nighttime terrors, and celebrate
dreams through creative play."
--- Robert Moss, author of Conscious Dreaming---
Not
only does Dreamcatching offer a wealth of scientifically-backed information
about the dreamlife of young people, it offers adults the opportunity to
engage in parenting or teaching in richer and more fulfilling ways, joining
with boys and girls in a voyage of social, psychological, spiritual
exploration that no other human activity offers.
