In this lively episode, Gestalt psychotherapist and author, Lynn Summerfield explores the transformative power of dreams and how gestalt techniques can unlock self-awareness. Lynn talks us through the fascinating Gestalt process which enables you to play with your dream characters, like becoming a lion, with creative techniques like chair work. Author of her new book, The Seeds of Change: How Therapists Cultivate Personal Growth, she also discusses how she works with dreams as a therapist and then shares a personal moving dream about being a toad. What's it like being a toad?
