We can change our lives by either changing what we do or by changing our perspective. Both require that we know what to change. So, how do we know what to change? We can start by teaching ourselves to be more aware of our inner and outer worlds. When we notice how we behave, what we feel, what we think etc., we find some very revealing clues on what to change.
Do Dreams Really Help Us?
There are many theories as to why we dream, but still no definitive answers. Dr. Carl Jung, PhD, is well known for his theories about dreaming from a psychological point of view. He theorized that dreaming is how our conscious mind communicates with the unconscious mind. It seems, to me, that it's our mind's attempt at reconciling experiences from behind the scenes. Jung also suggested that every person and object in a dream may represent an aspect of the dreamer.
