Why It’s Important To Watch Your Dreams After A Breathwork Workshop
Your dreams serve as a direct connection to your subconscious and it’s crucial to be attentive to your dreams after a breathwork workshop, particularly when they are vivid or unsettling. Vivid and scary dreams signal your psyche’s preparedness to process and release concealed emotions and experiences. And I recommend actively observing and exploring your dreams after your sessions as an integral component of your breathwork integration journey.
Dreams After a Breathwork Workshop: A Personal Story
I will give you an example of something that happened to me. I did a breathwork workshop and then had a recurring dream about somebody breaking into my house. I would wake up in an intense state of fear each time, go back to sleep, and then it would happen again. I knew this was important info from my unconscious, so I just let it come and let myself fully feel the fear. Sometimes, I would awaken and, in the grip of fear, deliberately vocalize to assist in fully feeling and releasing the fear. After about a week of this processing, the nightmare disappeared.
During this time, I also diligently engaged in inner work, and asked myself: “When have I encountered this feeling of being unsafe previously?” I reviewed my childhood and inquired into the first time this feeling came up for me. This inquiry transported me back to my six-year-old self and I remembered something from my past that I had long-forgotten.
My Mother, who is a Nazi Germany Jewish escapee, had told me over and over again when I was little that the world is an unsafe place. Her family had been in Germany for centuries. Her Father had been a World War I war hero on the German side of the war and received an Iron Cross which is equivalent to the Medal of Honor in the US. One of her ancestors had been around in Napoleon’s time and being the most wealthy person in the town, had paid Napoleon to bypass the town and not burn it to the ground.
And then, in the late 1930’s she had to flee for her life!
So, to my Mom, you could not trust anybody or anything. This unconscious imprint had been with me for my entire life and created havoc in my personal relationships and in my business life. How can you have a successful relationship if you have an unconscious imprint that you cannot trust anybody? Once this previously hidden material surfaced, and I gained clarity on the situation, I was able to effectively address it. I reached a point where I acknowledged that it was her reality, but it didn’t have to define mine. This realization made a huge difference in my life!
Closing Thoughts On Watching Your Dreams After a Breathwork Workshop
As demonstrated by my story above, monitoring your dreams after a breathwork workshop holds great significance. These dreams serve as a direct link to your subconscious, providing a window into your innermost thoughts and emotions. Moreover, they can often reflect the unprocessed aspects of your psyche, making them invaluable for integration and self-awareness.
By paying special attention to the content and symbolism in your dreams after breathwork, you can gain valuable insights into your personal journey, fears, and desires. These dreams may also help you confront unresolved issues, past traumas, or emotional blockages, ultimately fostering healing and growth. In essence, watching your dreams after a Breathwork workshop can be a powerful tool for self-discovery, self-healing, and the continued integration of the profound experiences you’ve encountered during your session!
