SERIES 8, Episode 1: Healing Through Dreams: A New Approach to Addiction Recovery

In this conversation, Dr. Lorraine Levy discusses her innovative approach to incorporating dream work into addiction recovery at a rehab clinic in Thailand. Setting up a Dream Club she explains how dreams can provide insights into personal lives, help clients process emotions, and foster better empathy and connections with others. The discussion covers various themes, including the role of dreams in healing, the significance of sharing experiences, and the therapeutic potential of artistic expression especially the drawing and painting of dreams as pictures or mandalas. Dr Levy discusses one client dream which was of a funeral casket becoming a rocket and the obvious second chance interpretation. Dr. Levy emphasizes the importance of creating a safe space for clients to renew a sense of trust and explore their dreams and emotions, ultimately aiding their recovery journey.   Dr Levy can be found here: https://www.lorrainelevyphd.com/   Wellness and Dream Retreats here: http://www.laurapayne.co.uk/my-next-wellness-retreats-lets-go-dreaming-in-greece/   https://www.lorrainelevyphd.com/_files/ugd/293a4a_c6db9c42f53f4779a11d1659e5e106e5.pdf   Your dreams are worth inquiring about too!
