In meetings, group members help one another attain a deeper understanding of a dream using a process called Dream Tending, developed by Stephen Aizenstat. This method of dream work does not interpret or analyze a dream but encourages the dreamer to connect with it by feeling it through active imagination and seeing what wisdom the dream has to offer. Please read, prior to attending your first session, the description of the Dream Tending process at www.dreamtending.com/dreamtending.pdf.
