The Spring 2015 issue of IASD's DreamTime Magazine has arrived. Here is a
question for you. Have you noticed how, if you leave a copy of this magazine
on a table, people pick it up and look at it? Share. WOULD YOU LIKE TO TELL YOUR STORY?
Have you had a life changing
dream? Would you like to share it so that others may appreciate the source
of inner wisdom that lies within our dreams? In IASD we support dreaming as
an important part of our growth, healing and learning process and we wish to
illustrate that concept with stories from those who have experienced life
changing insight and guidance from their dreams first hand. IASD is
therefore planning on publishing a book of dream stories and lessons by
those who have experienced life altering changes that were initiated by a
dream – and we would love to hear your story. IMPRESSIONS ON A DREAM CANVAS IN WISCONSIN An art exhibit at the Monona Public
Library, Monona, Wisconsin is showing from April 7 - May 31, 2015. ULLMAN DREAM GROUP IN MILAN
In this issue, Hot Off the Press explores dreams of the homeless and
astronauts. The intention of this column is to publish links to
evidence-based scientific articles that are written for a non-research
audience in the study of dreams.

Bobbie Ann Pimm, Regional Events Committee Chair Dreams, Shamanism, & Mythology
Toronto played host to world renowned dream
researcher and psychologist Stanley Krippner for a weekend of deep
learning, sharing and exploration into our dreams, our myths, and the
Shamanic practices of indigenous cultures. More than 50 were in
attendance to hear Stan and Toronto area dream teachers Dr. Teresa
DeCicco and Rosemary Gosselin. Shamanic cultures practice one or more of the 5 D’s
(Dreaming, Drumming, Dancing, Drugs and Deprivation) to achieve deep
altered states of integrative consciousness. Stan also taught the group
a variety of techniques for working with dreams; our own and when
working with dream groups. The speakers break for lunch at the first New York Regional conference in Greenwich Village, hosted by Lou Hagood on April 25. Shown are Fariba Bogzaran, Robert Waggoner, Deirdre Barrett, Mike Adams, Mike Jenkins, Larry Burk & Lou Hagood.
