This program will NOT be recorded.

Lanie Bergin will share the progress of Project Dream Span, a living digital archive comprising more than four decades of dream journals, artistic reflection, and correlation with life events. Lanie will share her evolving understanding of tending to dreams and what she's learned about the uniquely individual process that relies on one's relationship to the psyche.
 

"What does the image have to SAY?" This question is on the minds of every dreamer. Lanie discovered that a creative approach to dream tending is the glue in her relationship to the psyche.

“When I had a series of psychedelic-like dreams in 1993 I panicked. I shared my experience with my mom. I wanted to know the meaning and she told me to DRAW what I saw and to listen to the images! It was at this point in my life that I learned how to draw. I was desperate to hear what the dreams had to say to me and my devotion to the process of bringing them to life continues to this day. This process of dream tending helps me to stay close to the homeland of my dreamscape.”
 

In this experiential workshop, you will learn new ways of trusting your inner guide by manifesting images and words directly into art and back out into the world. Lanie will share profound and mysterious stories of how dream images can arise in the life we wake up to every morning, no matter how unsettling the images or uncertain the pilgrimage before us.

Spoiler alert: A resistance to attributing conclusive deterministic analysis is required!
 

Group Activity: Lanie will lead participants through a somatic-based expressive arts encounter. Participants will use some of the tools and methods Lanie uses in her process.

Art materials needed: paper (any size), pastels, crayons, markers, journal book, pen.

NOTE: This event is free with an option to make a donation to the Jung Society of Washington.
