ABSTRACT
This chapter describes a personal journey to a small Mexican town where the author participated in a week-long embodied imagination workshop with Jungian dream analyst Robert Bosnak. Bosnak’s method is compared, and then both contrasted and integrated with the author’s preferred modality, that of focusing-oriented dreamwork. The chapter takes the reader through the arc of a detailed embodied dream journey that includes working with a series of dream images over time. The result is a shift in perspective away from connecting dream life to waking life, and more toward the dreaming as an experience unto itself. This dialectic is a theme that runs throughout this book.
