I’ve been dreaming since … well, as long as I can remember. I almost died at 7 months old from chicken pox, and clearly remember the events surrounding that despite not being able to remember other things that happened last week. lol

What I remember most about life as a kid was dreaming about what it was like being other people. My insatiable curiosity about other people took me into their energy, into their worlds. As I grew older, I wondered about the people who lived in ‘those’ houses…big houses that did not match ours. What did they know we didn’t? I wanted to know.

I spent most of my early life in my quest to find out, and ultimately did learn what they knew we didn’t. And, the secret is… they had a bigger vision of possibility. They believed in bigger dreams, bigger possibility and followed it.

You can too…open your heart and mind WIDE and go! I did, and it has taken me on amazing adventures… let’s dream bigger together!

You all know I journal my dreams. What I don’t always do is share my dreams with you. I have, on occasion, shared some of the juicier ones. This one, though, is a sweet treat and reminder of what is true.

In my dream, I walked into an older house – ranch style with many people milling about inside. I walked in and saw these wool rugs hanging from the walls. Remember those rugs we used to make in the 70s where you take a little tool and loop a piece of yarn to create a piece of art? Well, they were like that and they were green and pink – very preppy. Lots and lots of pink graced the rugs. These rugs were HUGE, too. One of them almost looked like a landscaping design with waves of green and pink.

As I walked through the house, I noticed that I was drawn to this doll house that was built into the column of the house. It was like this column was a weight-bearing structure for the house that seemingly had no other walls to support the roof.

I kneeled down and opened up the doll house door and peered inside. I gasped with recognition of the sheer work it took to create this amazing piece of art. I felt like I was in my own little world in my dream.

Then, someone asked, “Do you like it?”

And I replied, “Oh yes, I LOVE it! I can feel the energy of every one of these little creations and they are magnificent!”

Then the young man replied, “Yes, we’ve always loved it. My dad was an artist and he loved to create and build these little pieces, but no one ever seemed to want to pay what they were worth, so instead of selling them, we just kept it.”

I could feel the sadness of his words, and I knew it was nothing like the magic that I felt coming from the doll house.

I said, “Oh, that’s too bad. I’m sure your father was a genius.”

The boy remarked, “Yes, he was always creating something, but he never seemed to be able to figure out the market.”

As we stood there talking, this giant, more lie GIGANTIC pink poodle came rushing up to me. Standard size is large sized, but this poodle was more like great dane sized. She jumped up on me and put her feet on my shoulders (very much like Rico has only tried to do once or twice). She was massive and the sheer weight of her pressing on me felt heavy. But underneath the enormity of her presence, I could feel a playfulness, a jaunty spirit and I also could feel that she loved me very, very much. I knew in that moment with her (inside my dream) she would do anything for me. She was a willing companion and, not only that, but she was well-trained, smart as a whip, playful, fun and had boundless energy.

The boy tried to call her down. Her name was Princess. The more he tried to get her off of me, the more she seemed to hug me. I put my hands out and rubbed her fur and realized this fur was the same fur that was on the fluffy pink and green art pieces that lined the walls. I could feel her girth under my hands and I hugged her back. She licked my face and then jumped down and trotted off as quickly as she came.

One of my mentors would often say our minds are like a pet. If Princess was any indication of my mind, she is ENORMOUS, which does not surprise me at all. What does surprise me is how well-trained I knew my mind was in the dream. And, I could tell that it had boundless energy to support me in . What I didn’t realize was it could be fun and companion-like and these two ideas felt really good.

As I processed this dream…the feeling underneath was helpful and magical. Princess brought this amazing helpful energy and I knew I could ask my mind for anything and she would retrieve it. I realized that I have trained my mind and the other parts of me, too, in a way that I am not sure most people experience day-to-day. To acknowledge this felt so good.

The doll house represented my inner wonderland. It also holds the many creations I love to create and dream of, but that I don’t always share with others. I felt so alive peering through that little door into the wonderland of the artist father.

The dream offered a glimpse into my own thoughts and limiting ideas about my favorite creations…ideas I have let go of since having this dream.

And, the art on the walls showed me what I am willing to share and display for everyone to see, yet I keep the true magic to myself, not because I don’t want to share, but because I am not sure anyone would love the magical side of life like I do…would anyone really see the value in these ideas?

And, truthfully, I didn’t value the magic side…until now. See, how it works… I say maybe you won’t value them when I am not valuing them, but as soon as I value them, then of course, you will too.

That’s the power of dreams. To be able to quickly and easily flip and dip back into your truth.

So, instead of sharing the magical side of me, Princess and I have walked the sidewalk of practicality and information. Oh, of course, my magical, sparkly Queen of Dreams slipped through, but it isn’t the same. :) I know it, too. We have created many things…many books that are practical and helpful and have even helped change lives. And those creations will still be part of what we create because I have parts of me very committed to that work.

Now it is time for us to spend more time in the wonderland inside of me. To create magical creations for you and to share my spirit in a way I have not been sure of until now.

Since that dream several weeks ago, I have made more decisions…to share the deeper, richer sides of me and to create from a higher place within. Dreams hold power and access to the richest sides of you…consider connecting to your dreams today!

A few days ago, I logged in another dream in my dream journal. For me, keeping track of my dreams has been a great gift I give to myself. Our dreams provide us access to a part deep inside that is active and alive, whether we care to connect consciously with it or not.

My dreams have helped me access higher levels of creativity and Messengers who have come to help me, too. My dreams help me see what I’m avoiding. They even help me relate better to others. The work (sheer joy) I’ve invested in dreaming has given back to me exponentially. I know myself better. I feel more connected to everything. And, I feel more connected to myself.

By setting the intention to have and to work with a dream journal, I am intending to work with the hidden part of me. By doing this, a part of me stays open and remembers my dreams in a way that doesn’t happen when I don’t hold this intention.

If working with your dreams speaks to you, then by all means…start tonight! If you want a great guide to begin with, check out Robert Moss’s book, Conscious Dreaming. It is a phenomenal primer for all things dreaming. It is one of my top 10 favorite books ever. I’m hoping he’ll be on my show in the next few months discussing his latest book.

Until then…here’s to dreaming!

Do you have a dream? Been playing small? This theme of playing small is one I’ve been seeing with a LOT of people these days – Eeeek! I’m wondering if I’m playing a bit too small too?

I happened upon this video and was struck by how MUCH we can learn from Susan.

First, Simon asks her what has kept her from singing before now (she’s 47). She says, “I haven’t been given the chance.” Hmmmm, is this true? Or has it just not been the right time for her? What is for you? Trust me, I’m asking myself these as I ask them here!

I’ll put my own answers in italics… I haven’t been ready.

Second, she begins to go into her head…thinking…she trips up her speaking, and people really begin to think she is going to be bad – ever notice that happening? You go into ‘thinking’ or ‘trying’ mode and it backfires on you?

Uh, yes, like EVERY TIME! I’ve finally figured out that no one wants to see, hear, experience my ego… they want ME.

Third, she runs off energy by moving a bit and going into her protection zone… seems like it is probably humor. The audience responds with MORE distaste.

My protection zone used to be more information… just give more information, that will get us out of here. Now, it is my breath…no hurry, just breathe.

Fourth, she begins to center… answering what her TRUE DREAM is… to be a singer like Elaine Paige. This links her to her TRUTH. How do we leave our dream by the wayside when we feel judged? Or when people seem to not ‘understand us’?

At some point, I figured out, what difference does it make? I can either say what I want now and not endure the pain of ‘woulda,’ ‘coulda,’ ‘shoulda.’ Or I could endure the pain of being misunderstood. Either way, it felt painful and by going with what I wanted to speak in the moment, I found that wonderful things happened!

Fifth…she sings from her heart…from her soul…with all she has. And gets the gift that comes from that. How many of us would have buckled under an entire audience of people laughing? Going into the ego of feeling bad?

When you’ve got the goods, you know it. If you don’t feel like you’ve got the goods yet, keep going. Keep reaching for your dream. Soon enough, you’ll have them – more like you’ll be consciously connected to them – because you’ve always had them! And, when you know it, go with it! I’m really KNOWING it… and it feels great!

What is your dream? Your BIG, BIG, BIG dream that you hold inside? Let it out… share it with us… tell us… and let us also ENERGIZE your DREAM!
