I even have trouble letting go in my dreams. Over the weekend I had this dream in which I had apparently given notice at work but at the very last minute realized I couldn't bear the thought of leaving. I was begging to be kept on in any capacity, given that someone else had already been hired to replace me. I suppose that this doesn't sound like much of a dream, but there was so much emotion in it that it was truly painful. I woke up out of sorts and sick to my stomach.

Pay attention to your dreams. The most important ones are the ones you have just before waking.
Some dreams speak in puns, jokes or symbols and you have to work them out.
Once I spoke with a woman who lost her husband, he was washed off an ocean-racing yacht. In her dreams she had lost major bodyparts. She realized that without him she was not whole. But this dream also told her that she needed to grow those parts back again if she wished to be whole again.
My Shakti is also a dreamer. I am painting some of them, especially the ones that give a teaching, or tell us about something important. I am less keen when her dreams tell her about something that I have kept secret. Boy they can be devastating to have to admit. doc.

Doc,
I have a whole huge number of dreams recorded on this site but after switching domains my archive access isn't set up properly. Dreams have always been amazing part of my life. 90% of my dreams have involved people chasing me or trying to kill me since I was about 11 years old. Sometimes they have recurring dreamscapes and other times not.
I would love to see some more of your art when you feel like sharing.
With affection,
the girl

When I have a dream of being attacked I take it as a message that I am a little depressed or anxious about something. Quite oftenI am not aware of low mood in my day, so then I start to take remedial actions. One thing that causes low mood is procrastination. I delay doing my accounts, my tax return or paying bills--so I sit down and do that. Another therapy is exercise, eat something special, phone a freind, tidy up my studio.
Last, but not least, I sit and meditate.
Keep on loving, Doc.

Someone very close to me is about to give notice and make a huge leap this week.

p.s. You may have caught HIS dream. If you want, I can ask him what he dreamt that night and see if it's yours.

Doc, I certainly have a lot of stressors causing a low mood in my life at the moment. A great opportunity to work with suffering is in front of me, though, so maybe I'll gather the courage to seize it.
And yes, my dearest Heather, please ask! ;)

He says he doesn't really remember his dreams: more just feelings rather than narratives... So yours still may be out there somewhere...
