Dreams Do Come True: Decoding Your Dreams to Discover Your Full Potential

I have just finished reading Dreams Do Come True, which I found very intriguing and informative. It gives the readers practical tools to begin the journey of interpreting and understanding the meaning of their dreams. I enjoyed Layne Dalfen's conversational and friendly manner to write about her life experience with dream interpretation. Her book opens a door for the readers to walk out into the field and see the landscape of their own personal human experience, and is an invitation to explore it.

I've been interested in dreams for a long time. I've read many of the "classics" in the field-The Interpretation of Dreams by Freud, also Jung, Perls, etc. These books are usually more theoretical in tone. If you're looking for practical guidance on how to understand your dreams, Dreams Do Come True by Layne Dalfen is a better choice because she includes many of the ideas of these classics, but in a down-to-earth form you can use.I liked Layne's book because she gives various approaches to understanding and using your dreams. A lot of other authors will give you a pretty rigid set of steps to follow, and if they don't work for you, tough luck. (Even worse, dream dictionaries tell you exactly what your dream means, regardless of who you are or what your life experiences have been!) Layne gives you different approaches and exercises to try, so if one doesn't work you can try another. Or you can go through all the exercises with your dream, so that you keep arriving at a new, deeper understanding of the dream. And once you know what the dream means, Layne also gives you different exercises for using your dream to work out your problems and improve your life.Of the different self-help books I've read, this is one of the few that really help. Highly recommended.

I thoroughly enjoyed Dreams Do Come True: Using Your Dreams To Discover Your Full Potential. Ms. Dalfen really shows you how to get inside yourself by understanding your dreams. For a lot of people this isn't necessarily an easy thing to do because some might not like everything they see, but the author gives us the inspiration by showing us how she did it herself. And you know, maybe she didn't like everything she found either, but she got through it. This was the main thing that showed me that I could do the same.This isn't like those other feel good self help books. If you really want to put in the hard work it takes to understand yourself and change your life Layne gives you the tools to do it.

Dreams Do Come True: Decoding Your Dreams To Discover Your Full Potential gave me the tools I needed to finally make sense of my dreams. It is amazing to discover how much information is available to me any time I want to seize it right in my own unconscious! Layne Dalfen guides you every step of the way. She shows you, with dream maps and simple self-directed questions, how to attach a dream to a current problematic event. The best part is realizing that the answer to what you want to do and what you can do about the problem is right there inside the dream!I am now using the frightening aspects of my nightmares as incredible tools to actually help me in my current situation. And just the uncovering of the dream process is a riot! The images we use are so cool. The process is fun and at the same time intelligent and powerful. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to make sense of his or her dreams and discover life-changing possibilities right there for the taking.

Dreams Do Come True: Decoding Your Dreams To Discover Your Full Potential is more than your typical dream book. It really taught me how to decode a specific dream and helped me understand why I had that dream on a certain night.In this book, Layne Dalfen shows how we are problem-solving in our dreams. She explains how the dream is always about something that pertains to what is on our mind during a particular day or week.This book taught me how to recognize a current issue within a dream and how to identify a solution to that issue based on the content of the dream and my own feelings towards the issue. I feel that after reading this book I am better equipped to figure out on my own the meanings behind the dreams I have. I really enjoyed this book and I highly recommend it.
