During this time he studied with Gestalt therapists who were dream experts. And over the course of this study, David was startled to discover that there is far less difference between the dreams we have at night and the events of our daytime hours, especially events that are unexpected or upsetting. Since then, he has lectured and facilitated workshops in multiple countries across Western Europe and the Americas, and he has now documented his findings in his book, Always Dreaming.Website: www.teacherofdreams.com In her touchingly honest memoir, Flight Instructions: A Journey Through Guilt to Forgiveness, Kathleen Perkins chronicles the eventual decades-long journey that began at age thirty-three to answer an inner call ferocious enough to wrench her from her three young children and husband of fourteen years. A whole new world opened for her, that included an MA in gerontology, a PhD in Social Work and an academic career.Mirroring the age-old tale of the hero/heroine’s quest for self-discovery, her story is about much more than abandonment; it is about filial love, healing, inner demons, forgiveness, spiritual awakening, magic wands, fairy dust, and redemption.Website: www.kathleenperkinsphd.com June Lundgren is a psychic medium, nurse, healer and author, whose lineage includes women with psychic and spiritual gifts of Scottish, Irish, and American Indian descent. June has had many paranormal experiences in the course of her life, some of which she describes in her books “A Mediums Guide To The Paranormal” and “Paranormal Encounters- books 1 and 2.” June has communicated with animals and angels since childhood. She likes to recall her clairvoyant grandmother’s advice: “Always keep an open mind, question everything, and never take anything for granted. There is more within this world and the next than either you or I can know.”Her website is: www.mysticconnections.org/
