Embodied Dream Institute - New York



The Embodied Dream Institute
                      (EDI)



Since 1972, Zurich-trained Jungian analyst Robert Bosnak has led dream groups and explored dreaming with individuals, in both analytical and didactic contexts, developing a new method called Embodied Dream Imagery (EDI). This technique is based on principles first developed by C.G. Jung, especially in his work on alchemy, and on the work of James Hillman, who focused on soul as a simultaneous multiplicity of autonomous states.

By using a variety of body-oriented techniques, embodied dream imagery allows the dreamer to flashback into the dream, in order to experience and relive the dream in hypnagogic awareness, a state of consciousness occurring naturally during sleep-onset. By working on dreams (and memories) in this way, personal as well as archetypal, emotional and physical elements are uncovered, frequently leading to vivid therapeutic effects and bursts of creativity.

Embodied Dream Imagery is effective in psychotherapy (individually or in groups), psychosomatics, and in work with patients suffering from severe physical illness. It has also been used effectively to enhance the work of actors, directors, visual artists and writers.

The Manhattan Dreamwork Seminars have been held since 1998. They offer individual day-long seminars, as well as a new three-year training program in individual and group dreamwork (leading to a certificate as an EDI Practitioner).

Seminars are lead by Robert Bosnak, currently president of the international Association for the Study of Dreams, and author of: A Little Course in Dreams (Shambhala pub. 1989); Tracks in the Wilderness of Dreaming; and Christopher's Dreams -- Dreaming with an AIDS-patient.
