Creating the structure that lets the dream GROW [Dream Status Report]

I am doing my Dream Status Report for this week to check in with myself and my dreams and what I need and what my dreams need, for the coming week. I try to do this on Sundays, and write about it, to remind you to also take a few minutes to check in with yourself and your dreams.

*this practice works well with the Weekly Planning Sheet and Creative Genius Planning Sessions. If you want more progress and momentum with your dreams, you likely need to plan differently!

THESE PRACTICES CREATE THE STRUCTURE/CONTAINER FOR YOUR DREAM TO GROW IN

Written in all caps because this morning I am noticing IN A BIG WAY how important this is.

I gave myself lots of space to do my Dream Status Report this morning - meditating, journaling, even just sitting and thinking and looking out the window.

Our dreams need this structure and S P A C E in our lives for the multi-dimensional and multi-faceted shifts that need to happen to make a dream viable.

On to this week's Dream Status Report.

I did the 20 minute Dream Lab meditation to start - taking the time to connect with the soul of your dream, before reflecting and planning creates space for the magic to happen.

My dream showed up as a cartoon figure, jumping around and throwing glitter.

I got the message right away: I've been so focused on the slog of "doing all the things" to get to the dream. The soul of the dream wants me to remember the incredible fulfilment and joy of it, and the magic. To ENJOY THE PROCESS.

And then it points to this idea I've been thinking about for months and says "Stop thinking about it, just do that this week"

Which is neat since last week my dream said to "keep chewing on it" which I did and... Now is the time! Let's do it! AND don't let "doing the work" be all about "work". Have fun with it and remember the magic.

What am I learning?

There are times when we need to slow down the Outer Work and deepen into the Dream Work.

There are times when we need to step on the gas and DO ALL THE THINGS in the Outer Work.

We have to be listening, like really listening, to the soul of the dream to know which time we're in.

A lot of the work of bringing a dream to life is counter intuitive because your dream is here to grow you.

It makes sense to your future/grown self.

It doesn't make sense to your current self. Your current self's perspective is not the perspective that understands the dream.

PARTNERING with the soul of your dream helps you get a more accurate perspective.

(AKA members: use the Dream Lab meditation more often )

What this is telling me right now:

What I need this week is more PRESENCE + DEPTH. What my dream needs is more ACTION.

Sometimes what we need is so different from what our dreams need we don't see a way to bridge that gap. Sometimes we have to flounder around a little and try things and "fail" and learn from those "failures" before we figure it out.

This week I see exactly how to bridge that gap, that by me focusing on PRESENCE + DEPTH I am more able to take all the ACTION STEPS my dream wants me to take.

I can move more slowly and deliberately and powerfully.

Happy dreaming/reflecting/planning to you!
