In Honoring the Dream, Justina Lasley has compiled active data and exciting techniques relating to the organization and monitoring of dream groups. The foundation is based on commitment and trust which simplify the process. Her leadership style recognizes the power of emotions and projection in shared dreams. Her contribution to implementing this knowledge to lay groups is fundamental. Her handbook for dream group leaders and therapists is a grand adventure on a journey to wholeness.

This is a great hands-on book, the kind of book dreamwork leaders will want to have by their side to dip into, to take exercises from, or to have for guidance when they are faced with problems in their dealings with groups. There are lots of tricks of the trade in the best sense of the word, and I particularly like the emphasis on the basic emotions. Although the book was written for dream group leaders, it could also turn out to be useful for dreamers who want different techniques to work with their own dreams.

This book is a fabulous guide to studying dreams. It gave me everything I needed to know to get more focused on dream study. Justina's passion for dreamwork is obvious; she got me more excited about being part on an ongoing dream group, and she gave me lots of insights for recording my own dreams and exploring them individually as well as in the group. Her ideas are creative, and the book is extremely well researched.
