More About the Author

Penney Peirce is a gifted intuitive empath and visionary, and one of the pioneers in the intuition development movement. She is a popular author, lecturer, and trainer specializing in intuition and sensitivity development, "skillful perception," and dreamwork. She has worked throughout the US, Japan, South Africa, South America, and Europe since 1977 as a coach to business executives, coaches, psychologists, scientists, other trainers, and those on a spiritual path; she has counseled tens of thousands of individuals worldwide about life and business direction, and the fulfillment of destiny.

Penney has been involved with The Center for Applied Intuition, The Institute for the Study of Conscious Evolution, Coach University, Coaches Training Institute in Europe, The Arlington Institute (futurists), and The Kaiser Institute, which trains hospital CEO's in the development of intuitive skills. Penney has led visionquest tours to Peru, Japan, Egypt, and the American Southwest; hosted a TV talk show; presented keynotes, lectures, and workshops at colleges and conferences internationally; and appeared on radio and television interview shows internationally.

She is the author of FREQUENCY: THE POWER OF PERSONAL VIBRATION (2009), THE INTUITIVE WAY: THE DEFINITIVE GUIDE TO INCREASING YOUR AWARENESS (Beyond Words 1997; 2nd edition Council Oak Books 2005; 3rd edition Simon & Schuster 2009), DREAM DICTIONARY FOR DUMMIES (Wiley 2008), DREAMS FOR DUMMIES (Wiley 2000), and THE PRESENT MOMENT: A DAYBOOK OF CLARITY OF INTUITION (McGraw Hill 2000).

Peirce's work is open-minded, practical, and sophisticated, synthesizing diverse cultural and spiritual world views with many years' experience in business as a corporate art director with such companies as Atlantic Richfield and American Hospital Supply Corporation. She is extraordinarily attuned to the intricacies of the mind and the dimensions of human awareness, blending a deep understanding of natural laws with a designer's skill in structural patterning. She is known for her ability to present complex ideas in a common sense, easy-to-understand way.

Penney emphasizes the practical aspects of intuitive development, helping people apply "direct knowing" to increase natural efficiency and their enjoyment and participation level in life. Her work assists people and organizations in uncovering life purpose and action plan, understanding and easing transitions, alleviating burnout, and finding accurate answers to pressing questions. She believes that life functions according to innate natural principles, and when we live in alignment with these truths, things work smoothly and effectively.

Penney was educated at the University of Cincinnati, the New School for Social Research, Columbia, and California Institute of the Arts. She makes her home near San Francisco. Her websites are www.penneypeirce.com and www.thefrequencybook.com.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book!, October 9, 2001
This review is from: Dreams for Dummies (Paperback)
Very easy to read. It's not boring and too scientific like some other dream books out there. Very helpful in making the reader understand the different types of dreams. i highly recommend it. It's the type of book you can put down and come back to it later when the mood strikes.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected, March 8, 2007
By 
This review is from: Dreams for Dummies (Hardcover)
I guess I failed to read the "small print" with regards to this "book" being a "Miniature Edition." I ordered this book because I know the "For Dummies" series of books are usually quite good. Maybe so for this book if it was a regular-sized book. For the price, it should be full size. Didn't find it very helpful for what I bought it for - understanding dreams. Not much to read - takes about 5 minutes. Buyer beware - be sure and read the "small print" before assuming you're ordering a standard-sized book!

This book helped me to see my dreams as practical resources and not continue to see them as enigmas. I enjoyed this book and recommend it to anyone who enjoys their dreams. What more can I say??
