How often do you dream about work, what are the most common work dreams, and what do they mean? Yesterday I was on Today Extra to talk about work dreams. You can watch the video at the end of this blog, but I thought I would write this article to extend the topic. The Today […]
My new book, Bird of Paradise, was destined, it seems, to be published during lockdown, perfect timing perhaps for a book about finding your way during times of uncertainty. In this episode I share a couple of stories related to these times and my book, then read an extract from ‘Bird of Paradise Taming the […]
Why do we sometimes dream of people we don’t know, complete strangers? While many of your dreams probably feature people you know, or have known, or people you know about (celebrities) or fictional people you feel you know (characters from movies and books), your more dramatic or vivid dreams may often feature strangers. Those strangers […]
Rita from Cape Town, South Africa, is my guest asking about her dream of a baby crawling in the middle of a busy highway to retrieve her dummy. There were twins, one on the side of the road, one crawling into head-on traffic before getting run over by a van. Rita was hysterical, but the […]

Celena from Clarkesville, Georgia, is my guest asking about a series of increasingly catastrophic dreams. The dreams took place over six weeks. In the first dream Celena is building a safe place, a bunker, because of an imminent weather-related event. By the second dream the danger is war, and by the third dream it’s the […]
Have your dreams become more vivid, crazy, momentous, and scary during the coronavirus crisis? Last week I wrote a blog about Dreams in the time of Covid-19 for my online learning platform, The Dream Academy. It covered the kinds of issues people are dreaming about, the value of using dreams to discover insight and potential […]
Benjamin from Germany is my guest with a dream about a zombie attack on a fantasy mediaeval city. There’s a Game of Thrones feeling, a foul-smelling mass, house to house fights, and riddles to solve. It’s a multi-level adventure of a dream that, once interpreted, throws light on Benjamin’s waking life situation in a way […]
