Kelly Lydick first caught my attention with her work on “dream incubation,” which is the practice of setting an intention or asking a question before going to sleep at night.

Read MoreEpisode 24: Our Dreams at the End of Life, and Every Night Until Then, Too (a conversation with Mary Jo Heyen)
This one touched me. All these conversations do, but I felt this one extra deeply. Perhaps it’s Mary Jo’s way of speaking – and her way of listening – or the tenderness of hearing about dreams people had when they knew they were close to the end of their lives. Maybe it’s the feeling of…

https://healgrowthriveflow.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Ren-17-Video-Jan-2021.mp4 Sometimes, when I find this point, it’s so tender I can barely press on it. Other times, it feels fine.

https://healgrowthriveflow.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Liver-3-Video-Jan-2021.mp4 You’ll have to take your shoes off for this one. It’s worth it.

Click “Play” below, or listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or Vurbl. When you meet a menacing dream character, do you shudder, and skip writing that dream in your journal?
