Meaning and Power of Your Dreams

by Gary Yamamoto

Dreams are very important to you. Psychologists know that if people are prevented from dreaming for a few days, they begin to have psychological problems. They may begin to hallucinate and have a difficult time trying to concentrate. Obviously, dreams serve an important function.

Significance

Unfortunately, most people do not see the significance of their dreams. There are some who consider sleep a waste of time. If they could do it, they would go without sleeping. Many of these people constantly push themselves until they near exhaustion. Unfortunately, these driven people may find it difficult to sleep. As it was for Michael Jackson, they may need to take tranquilizers to put them to sleep. Then, waking in the morning in a semi- drugged state, they may need another pill to get them going. In this state, people tend not to dream. Instead of sleeping and dreaming, the drugs render them unconscious. For this reason, we will recommend you try to sleep naturally, without the use of pills.

Dreams Are Important

Why are your dreams important? I have been working with dreams for over 40 years. I have taught classes and given speeches on dream analysis. I am also the author of Creative Dream Analysis: A Guide to Self-Development. Your life will be greatly improved by working with your dreams and also gleaning any information that is being given to you through your dreams. There are several different types of dreams that people have. These are: • Clearance Dreams • Guidance Dreams • Psychic Dreams • Active Dreams

Clearance Dreams

In this article we will discuss clearance dreams. For one thing, they begin to remove stress from your life. These stress removing dreams are created to allow you a safe way to release the energy that the day's stress created. For people suffering from great stress or post- traumatic stress disorder, dreams are constantly working to relieve the stress from your life. Do not short-change the process by cutting back on sleep. Sleep is your ally for alleviating the stress from your life.

Maximize the Dream Process

To maximize the dream process, we would recommend the following: • Keep a dream journal. It will help to record not only your stress-removing dreams, but the other more significant dreams you may be having. • Analyze your dreams. We will show you how to do this in subsequent Special Reports. If you would like to maximize the benefit you receive from your dreams, we recommend you check out our book, Creative Dream Analysis. You will not only learn to solve problems at work, you will be able to use it to improve your personal life and relationships.
