This course looks amazing! I have always been really interested in exploring dreams, and I think a guided course is a beautiful way to do exactly that! What was your inspiration for creating this course?
Thanks Jodi! When I was training as an art therapist 20 years ago, part of my training entailed doing my own inner work. I was lucky to find a Jungian therapist to work with who introduced me to dream work. At the time I already had an interest in my dreams and wanted to understand them more. Several years after I finished my training as an art therapist I developed several workshops, one of which was focused on dream work and art. I had a great response to these workshops but then became busy with my clinical art therapy work and my new family. I created the Dream Dialogues Ecourse to help others explore their dreams in more depth using art so that they can connect with their wisdom within.
I have never heard of the phrase, Dream Dialoguing, before. Could you please share more about this process?
In Art Therapy we often dialogue with the art. It is a way of stepping outside of the artwork and exploring the art at a distance. When we dialogue with the art in this way we bypass the censor and open ourselves up to fresh perspectives. In Dream Dialogues the e-course, we explore the dreams similarly: using art to start the conversations that helps us understand our dreams. We dialogue with our dreams through imagery, acknowledgment and acceptance. Their meanings are experienced on a deeper level when we witness the dialogues taking place and allow ourselves to take part in the dialogues as well.
In addition to journaling, you use art to help your participants interpret their dreams. Could you please share why you believe art is such an important piece in this process?
I believe that dream art or art in response to a dream is vital to understanding one’s dreams since dream meaning is so embedded in imagery and symbols. So what better way to explore your dreams than through art? Interpreting dreams through art leads to a deeper understanding of self. When we remember our dreams they come to us in images that are in bits and pieces, like a puzzle. Journaling about dreams can help us remember them, however making art about our dreams helps us go deeper into the dream imagery where words cannot take us. Art helps us connect the dots and decipher the messages. We don’t necessarily have to “know” what the dream means, but we experience it and process it differently through the act of making art about our dreams.
Do you believe that if we begin to remember and learn to interpret our dreams, we’ll be more in touch with our soul, our emotions, and our purpose?
I think that the more we are aware of our inner world the better we are connected to our inner wisdom. Self-exploration through dream work can help strengthen our intuition, and help us listen to and trust ourselves more. When we connect with and pay attention to our dreams we pay homage to our potential and ourselves. Our dreams can help us see what direction we need to go, as well as expose any blockades we may experience.
What do you hope participants will take away after completing your course? How will they benefit from it? And how will they be more in touch with themselves?
When you follow the course material and implement the expressive arts exercises, you begin to have a better understanding of yourself and what you are capable of. Participating during the 21 days will help you establish a routine of inner work.
So many people constantly look outside of themselves for answers and forget the wealth of wisdom that resides within. Through dialoguing with your dreams and art you will open the doors to your inner wisdom. Clarity around issues will be gained and a new sense of confidence in what you need to do becomes established. Dream Dialogues will help you begin to listen to Self on a deeper level.
Thank-you so much for your thoughtful questions Jodi!

I am looking forward to tune in again with dream wisdom and further the healing process.
I would love to win a spot in the Dream Dialogues Ecourse. I am at a point in my life that I feel that I would benefit from this course.
I have had neuralgia in the left side of my face now for 7 weeks and, as yet, it shows no signs of abating. Its is beginning to get me down quite a bit.
I am sure I would benefit from the Dream Dialague E course although money is a bit tight at the moment.
There are many courses on the internet these days but this one appears to approach what I am looking for from a different angle.
Thank you Jodi and Petrea for offering this opportunity.
Blessings to you both.
Eileen.
I would so love a chance to be a part of this ecourse! I have been needing some inspiration to recharge me and have been lacking in all areas of my life. You are so inspiring and I know, that even if (SOB) I don’t win, that someone deserving will. Lots of love regardless! K
Interpreting my dreams has always been of interest to me; I know my dreams hold messages but have never been able to find help with them. Reading this interview reminds me that the answers are within – I would just like help to access them. I have experienced recurrent themes in my dreams and would like to finally know what they mean. I have followed and liked! Thanks for the opportunity!
Remembering my dreams is something that challenges me- I have the dream journal by the bed but rarely do i recall my dreams. This sounds wonderful and I love that this is art based
Suzie a wonderful opportunity
thanks Jodi for sharing Petrea
I have always interpreted my own dreams and those of my family and friends, but using art to help interpret them sounds fascinating and a gret wy of understanding the symbolism of dreams more. I would love to have a go at this course, thank you Jodi and Petrea for offering it. I have signed up to both the free pages and I am looking forward to bringing out my inner child. Thank you
Margaret ♥
dreaming works for me
I would like to know why I get dreams that are so real that is scary sometimes and I would like to why I dream about the bad times more then the good times .
I love the process of Drawing the self out thru art and also would love to delve deep with the dreams. Thank you very much!
Thank you for the amazing prizes. I love dreaming, interpreting them can be a bit of a challenge, at times, at other times its a breeze. Goodluck to all who entered competition.
I would love to win, because I feel terribly stuck. I dream very vividly, but not sure what it is telling me. My creativity is also stuck. I do not know which way to go. What is my heart telling me, my guides, my inner self? I would love to try this and unleash my inner longings.
I would love to win this course! I’m feeling stuck creatively at the moment and the timing seems perfect.
This is amazing. Exactly what I have been looking for and advised to interpret my dreams to follow a healing process. It was suggested by a dear friend who read my tarot cards. Would love to win a spot.
All the best to all the participants.
Love and Light.

The Dream Dialogues course sounds very interesting. I would love to win it. The meditations sound great, too. Thanks for offering this opportunity / giveaway. Many blessings on your work.
It would mean so much to me to receive this beautiful course, I am on a journey of healing and reaching for the gifts within grief since the death of my sweet son Ryan. It is my hope that the dream dialougues course will help me access the whispers of my heart to connect with my son through the veil of dreams ~ with infinite love and gratitude to you for your precious and beautiful work.
The landscape of my mind and body seems to be evolving in a much deeper and quicker way now. I find myself removing the box in my thought processes, I analyse less, but seem to have more and more questions. I would love to win, as I feel it would be a kind of tipping-of the-hat to my whole self, which has had a battering of late. Thank you for this offering, such a treasure.
Thanks for offering this! I would so love to win this as I love exploring my dreams even though I haven’t worked with them lately
Thank you for offering this, Petrea! I really think, that dream work is important and can help us live a more fullfilled and joyful live as we understand ourselves better and allow ourselves be guided by our inner wisdom.
I would love to have the opportunity to win this amazing Dream ecourse so I can learn a new tool and apply a better understanding of the dreams I’ve been having, so my soul can heal and move forward in my life. <3
