Lucy Goodison draws on her experience leading dream workshops for more than 15 years to offer a thoughtful guide specifically geared to the female experience. Beginning with useful tips on remembering and decoding the messages sent by sleeping minds, Goodison delves into the mysterious and meaningful depths of women's dreams--and what they tell the individual about her body, her relationships, her spiritual self, and her unique emotions about her mother, children and other women in her life.

Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
In May, Harmony will publish Good Girls Don't Eat Dessert: Changing Your Relationship to Food and Sex, in which psychologists Rosalyn M. Meadow and Lillie Weiss note the startling parallels between the eating problems women face today and the sexual conflicts afflicting their foremothers in decades past. Throughout, their intent is to help women break the social cycle that links feelings of self-worth with the tyranny of deprivation, whatever its source. The book is a retitled reissue of Haworth Press's 1992 publication, Women's Conflicts About Eating and Sexuality. ($22 208p ISBN 0-517-70384-X) Dream work, self-help and group therapy mix in The Dreams of Women: Exploring and Interpreting Women's Dreams by British lecturer Lucy Goodison (Moving Heaven and Earth: Spirituality, Sexuality and Social Change). While drawing on the work of Jung, Freud and others, Goodison offers examples of dreams and their interpretations from women from many cultures to promote a variety of means by which women can mine their personal "gift of dreams" to enhance their well-being. Norton is publishing in April. ($23 354p ISBN 0-393-03917-X)

5.0 out of 5 stars
A fantastic journey through the world of women's dreams.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Dreams of Women: Exploring and Interpreting Women's Dreams (Hardcover)
"The Dreams of Women" was the best book about dreams I have read so far. From a particularly feminine perspective, Lucy Goodison ties her personal experiences and the dreams of others into her book. This rare kind of book explores particularly the dreams of women, because, in fact, they are different than those of men.
