Book excerpt: What if, in this age of unlimited data and distractions we've overlooked the most accurate, timely and relevant source of information we have - our dreams?In this extraordinary study of an ordinary experience, a veteran dreamer reveals a luminous perspective rooted in ancient wisdom that shows us our dreams are responding in real time to the questions and struggles we have every day.Executive, actor, therapist and coach Will Sharon shakes up conventional thinking and asks, what if our dreams are just as relevant to our goals and growth as the actions we take in our waking lives?For over a hundred years we've been told that dreams are elusive, irrelevant and need to be deciphered by an expert. "Dreams tell us what we're asking to know," Will Sharon says. If we animate them and give them dimension, they will inform us of the marvelous nature of our existence.Will examines how we became dependent on our cognitive minds and suggests "thinking" has run its course as our sole mode of decision making. Through real life examples of dreams, we learn that by embracing our imaginations we become aware of the entire conversation we are having with ourselves.Dreaming in the 21st Century, an Ancient Experience in a New Context explores reclaiming the dream experience first by redefining the language we use in order to make our dreams more accessible. Next we examine the nature of the interior conversation between our dreams and our waking life. The container for this comes from Irish philosophers: The soul is not in the body; the body is in the soul. And finally, we address the questions (often about sex and money) from our waking life that we bring to our dreaming life in search of answers."Dreams help us understand the dissonance between our current situation and the life we aspire to live."With a little curiosity and by following the simple steps described you can reclaim your stories as they invite you into the next larger version of yourself, encouraging you to become all you're meant to be.
