Dream Travels and Adventures
Welcome to Dream Travels. A monthly adventure on dream sharing, being the expert of your dreams, and synchronicities with waking life.
Hello Dreamer!
Thank you for joining Dream Travels. I’m your guide bridging the gap between your astral, imaginative night journeys with the synchronicities and wonders of your waking day.
Supporting your journey to be the expert of your dreams.
For most of my childhood, I had variations of the same nightmares. Skeletons walked inside my home. They clawed through the floors, my school bus, the ground. Always chasing, but never quite getting me. You can imagine how upsetting these would be to a child. I needed to understand where they came from and why I continued to have them.
When I shared these scary visions, I was told:
“It was just a dream.”
That phrase separated me from my intuition, my higher self, and the spirit that soared while I slept. The nightmares continued, and I became disconnected from knowing that my dreams were an integral part of what made me whole and unique. Those five words made me question the visits I shared with those who had physically passed as well as the warnings and premonitions that often presaged events in my waking life.
It wasn’t until I was in my early 20’s that I understood dreams to be an extension of me outside of my physical body. Through workshops with Robert Moss, dream teacher, and author of many best-selling books on dreams, I found that bridge to astral adventures.
When I was pregnant with my first son, Nick, I had continuous dreams of a blond-haired man trying to steal my son. Wherever I went, the man was there. The movie theater, park, our home. I was forever the mother bear fighting him off.
Because of these dreams, I was an overly protective mother. I made sure I knew who both my boys were with, met parents of their friends, and went on school trips. Part of the reason I became a third-degree black belt was the thought in my mind to protect, whether myself, my children, family or friends.
I attended many of Robert’s workshops until motherhood and life took up my time.
A few months before 13-year-old Nick became ill, I was very concerned about his fatigue, and I kept having dreams that something was wrong with my blood. I’d go for transfusions, was in the hospital, and felt listless. I didn’t make the connection to Nick.
One night in waking life, I walked toward a building and Robert Moss stepped outside. He was teaching a monthly Advanced Dreamer program. I joined and we used his Lightning Dreamwork Process to help me understand these dreams. When I sought medical help, I found that I was healthy, so the dreams weren’t about me.
In July of that year, only four months after reconnecting with Robert, Nick was diagnosed with Leukemia. Never did I think that the villain of my dreams would be cancer and those fears of losing my son would become a reality when he passed away four months later.
If you are called to, please read more about Nick and our journey at The Pause Place.
Dreams helped me connect with my son in a non-physical way.
Attending those workshops provided a path to Nick. Knowing he was still around in another form gave me strength to live.
When Robert began training others to be active dream teachers, I joined, thirsty for more connection with my son, my dad, my ancestors, and guides. I have studied with Robert for over 30 years and have been growing my dream practice for most of my adult life. It’s vital to me to understand my dreams and receive their messages in an efficient and clear manner. Journaling my dreams is a part of my daily practice.
Many people have shared dreams of Nick.
I love when he goes dream-surfing.
Talking to people about their dreams and holding space for them to gain guidance from their night and day dreams brings me so much joy.
My dreams continue to grow HOPE.
HOPE is a huge reason why I write, teach, and create spaces for others to grow their stories.
HOPE is feeling your loved one hugging you after you cried yourself to sleep because you missed them.
HOPE is sleeping on a major decision or problem and waking up to the answer and clarity of knowing what’s best for you.
We sleep for about half our lives. We’re living amazing adventures during that time that are fun, informative, joyful, and guiding us in our waking life.
It’s more than just a dream.
Our dreams are a guidance system, creative outlet, fantastic adventures, and wifi to your Soulternet™
Dream Travels is a space to share your dreams, learn how to be the expert of them, and play fun games with an adventurous community. We’ll share dream stories, offer ‘if it were my dream’ support, and understand how journaling grows dream awareness using your personal symbols and messages.

Thank you for sharing this. I had dreams of my son Emile, before he died. A precognitive dream warning me of his coming death.
He also warned me in a dream after his death, about my husband's death. I have had these dreams all my life.
Love coming your way. 🩷❤️
Thank you, Janine!
I'll check out Robert Moss. Similarly, I was trained through Jungian models which resonates with me. My therapist was a Jungian Analyst and guided me with the dream work and much more. My first introduction with a book was Inner Work: Using Dreams and Active Imagination for Personal Growth by Robert A. Johnson. It still sticks well with me.
Also, I am really interested in The Tibetan Yogas of Dream & Sleep: Practices for Awakening. It connects well with how I see it. The hardest part is getting back into the practices, and this helps to read another perspective on approaching the practices.
Currently, I've been having several stress dreams that involve past relationships (career partners and romantic partners). What are your thoughts on the when and the where during the dream with people that are close to you? And on that line, my dreams seem to be the opposite from expected reality which seems to exacerbate the stress. I remember when suggestion in the past was to flip the script sometimes to reflect a reverse mirror to actualize how you see it now. Which seems to resonate with how emotionally charged I can feel when flipping the script. That is, finding a way to ground myself to the harder truths rather than wishful thinking.
I really appreciate you and connecting!
