Dream worker, David Rivinus, began a decades-long study of dreams while working with children at a mental health clinic in the late 1960s. During that time, he attended seminars offered by Gestalt therapists who were also dream experts. Over time, this led to him developing his own simple, effective method of dream interpretation. While doing his research, he was struck by how “dreamlike” the unusual events of waking life can be.
His realization that one can analyze and interpret these waking life events, reaching the same kinds of profound, helpful insights that one gains from nighttime dreams, revolutionized his approach to dreams and their purpose in our lives—indeed, revolutionized his understanding of the structure of life itself. Since then, he has taught dream classes throughout Western Europe and the Americas, highlighting both nighttime and “waking” dreams. He has presented at the annual conference of the International Association for the Study of Dreams. He has been interviewed repeatedly on radio and online television, both in the U. S. and the U. K.
He participates in online dream- related blogs and teaches dream classes via Zoom and conference calls. These classes are noted for their insightful, spiritual content, and while a box of Kleenex is standard “equipment,” participants repeatedly refer to these classes as both cathartic and fun. He regularly facilitates dream seminars, most recently with master’s degree candidates in counseling in Eugene, Oregon. He wrote the book Always Dreaming—Gaining Insights from the Metaphors of our Sleeping and Waking Lives to document his findings.
