What is projective dreamwork? Meet the hosts of the Healing Dream Project podcast, Billie Ortiz, Royce Fitts, and Viviana Guzman. We talk about projective dreamwork and then, in the second half, we do it! We start by talking about what projective dreamwork is and who developed it and what projections are. After the break, we use projective dreamwork on a dream from Julie from Denver in which a bobcat mysteriously comes out from a crowd.
Here is a link to the video that Billie mentions which shows an octopus changing colors during its sleep, evidence that it is probably dreaming: https://youtu.be/0vKCLJZbytU?si=8erfd256y8n3Ve0H
