I received The Everything Dreams Book for my birthday when I was in middle school because ever since I can remember I have been enamored by dreams. I am fairly sure this book made an indelible impression on me as a young person because re-reading today I see how much it reflects my interests as an adult. Even the famous figures it mentions such as Jung, Cayce and Castaneda have had a profound impact on my psyche, even though I wasn’t intimately familiar with their work until a few years ago. I have to wonder if this book planted those seeds on some level.

The Everything Dreams Book is a great introduction to the topic of dreamwork as it’s clear, exciting and brief. It covers everything from dream recall, interpretation, common themes as well as the wonderful world of lucid dreaming. And then it goes on to discuss ‘far-out’ topics such as out of body experiences, shamanism, psychic dreams and past lives. This remarkable book captured my imagination when I first received it as a gift many years ago and it continues to do so today.

I have to say that this was the first book I ever read on dreams (when I was just getting out of my teenage years), and it really drove home how important dreams are for us. I really believe that understanding our dreams is an essential part of our happiness. Dreams allow us to become more aware of how our waking life is going and, at the same time, connect us to our spiritual side.

The book covers all topics related to dreaming, including recalling dreams, nightmares, lucid dreaming, past lives, out of body dreams, and healing dreams. It also includes a lot of interpretation for dreams with a dream glossary and random interpretations throughout the book; however, I find that my dreams are best interpreted by myself because symbols often carry a very different meaning for me than other people. But at least it gives you a starting point.

The book also includes a lot of personal dream examples, related to the chapter topic, that I still remember to this day. They inspired me to research dreams even more.

I also like the fact that there are exercises in the book to help you become more aware of various aspects of your dreams. For example, it has a dream journal exercise that will help you build a system for keeping track of your dreams.

For anyone just becoming interested in dreams and how they affect your life, I think that this is a fairly comprehensive book. It will give you lots to think about, and it will start your journey to the fascinating world of your sleeping life.

If you have studied dreams to some extent, this book may still be of interest to you as there are a lot of facts and references that may add to your dream knowledge.

However, I believe this book is best for people who are just becoming interested in how dreams affect their lives.
