• The importance of recognizing and respecting that we live 24-hour lives with information and processing going on in our mind-bodies all the time. This way we are not just doing tasks during the day state, but also living in a continuum to complete our tasks and improve Self-awareness in the non-ordinary dream state.
• A brief history of dreams in myriad world cultures and remember to see dreams as personal archetypes, or messengers from the unconscious, to help manage the day state.
• Exercises for waking, incubation, and sleep preparation practices to observe the interactions that occur between sleep and day states and return to a state of Awe when we are faced with obstacles. Observations of our dreams can assist in problem solving, expand creativity, and ease pressures of goal management for the day state.

Danielle Wise, PhD, has been a psychotherapist for over 20 years. She is trained in depth psychology, somatics (mind-body as a whole being), and relational trauma. She works with individuals and groups focusing on understanding self, the ability to recognize inner wisdom, and how our experiences support cycles of lifelong wholeness making. She has coached communication and self-awareness for over 30 years through her coaching practice and workshops to individuals, businesses, small groups, and through university undergraduate and graduate courses. As someone who lived through childhood relational trauma, which culminated into many unhealthy relationships as an adult from that learning, she has broken free of her trauma lineage. She is humbled daily with the opportunity to practice for both herself and also bring to others what has inspired her to a life more peaceful.
