Dream Your Problems Away focuses on training the reader to take charge of their lives. Our subconscious never really sleeps, and when our physical body is unconscious and resting our subconscious is free to travel to other dimensions. We only recall fragments of these excursions as dreams.
Dr. Bruce Goldberg does not place much value in dream interpretation, except by the dreamer themselves. A thorough discussion of dream world, and how it represents other dimensions is presented. This world of dreams is just as real as our physical realm. We can learn to use certain simple techniques to heal ourselves by mastering our dreams and dreaming our problems away.
Dream Your Problems Away surveys ancient dreaming methods, such as dream incubation, shamanic dreaming and yogic approaches. Out-of-body techniques are presented in the chapter on lucid dreams. Methods of seeing into the future are given, as well as methods to improve creativity and heal oneself. The dangers of "waking-sleep," or robotic functioning are also discussed.
We may look upon dream world as the fifth dimension and literally change our life by altering the content of these dreams. A culture that acts out their dreams the following day and has the lowest rate of psychopathology in the world, the Senoi of Malaysia, is thoroughly explored.
