Editorial Reviews

Review

"I have never come across a book that develops my "third ear" for dreams as much as does "SLEEP ON IT!" This book is to be highly recommended." -- Henry Reed, A.R.E. Journal

"In this book she presents a selection of over 300 true experiences of practical dream guidance as related to the daily life of the dreamer. The aim is to give readers a new attitude toward dream purposes and messages supported by empirical evidence, as well as encouragement to monitor their own dreams." -- DeVorss & Co.

"Reveals the creative potential of dreams for problem solving. Each chapter contains many examples, telling the situation of the dreamer, the dream, and the outcome the dream initiated in the dreamer. Janice's purpose is not to spell out principles of dream interpretation but, rather, to have us learn by osmosis, by hearing dream after dream. I find it to be a very effective method.

"Because of its special method of construction, "SLEEP ON IT!" is both an advanced text for the experienced dream enthusiast and an introductory lesson for the newcomer to dreams." -- A.R.E. Journal

Because of its special construction, SLEEP ON IT! Is both an advanced text for the experienced dream enthusiast and an introductory lesson for the newcomer to dreams. If you want to improve your 'third ear' for dreams this book is to be highly recommended. -- The A.R.E. Journal --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

More About the Author

Janice Baylis, PhD., born in 1928, is a retired Reading Specialist Teacher and Community College Dream-study Instructor.
In 1959 her car-pool passenger, Mabel, phoned at 6am asking to change their meeting spot to around the corner. That same morning at 7am Mabel was getting into Janice's car. They heard a loud CRASH!
They rounded the corner and passed their regular meeting spot. There was a small airplane landed upside down in the corner of the store parking lot WHERE THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN! Mabel explained that she had dreamed it during that night.
Mabel's life-saving, pre-cognitive, warning dream started Janice on her life-long, self-directed and academic study of dreaming. Her student's dreams and the Edgar Cayce dream material focused Janice on the practical side of dreaming. At prodding from her students in 1977 she authored "SLEEP ON IT! The Practical Side of Dreaming".
