I wrote recently about the idea of taking mini mind vacations; imagining yourself in a fun and relaxing (or exhilarating) locale doing something you like. Since the mind cannot differentiate between what is real and what is imagined, it can believe you are really in that incredible tropical location, if you make it more "real" to all of your senses. Hear the surf breaking on the sand and the seagulls calling, feel the sun's warmth and the softness of the sand you can dig your toes into, smell the coconut scented lotion, taste that tall cool drink with the umbrella resting on the rim of the glass.
Keeping an image of a dream we have in our mind's eye can help us in a lot of ways:
It's fun because we can go places and do things we might not ordinarily visit or do on any given day
The mind releases cascades of endorphins inducing feelings of well being and elevating our moods
Keeps the dream in sight, focuses energy on it and inspires us daily
Take a look at what you are dreaming about- whether while asleep or in a waking state and discover what it is saying to you.
