Joined ASD: By luck, surfing on the internet, in my effort to find website pages on DREAMS.
Important About ASD: It is very important that it brings together people with the same interest, who are able to communicate and exchange research results and ideas.
Favorite Dream: I was in a clear blue athletic pool and I was finally swimming up and down with an excellent breath rythm. A younger woman was keeping me company out of the pool, having my walkman on her hands. For the first time I could feel my body, spirit and soul in a complete cynchronization. I was happy and relieved!
Favorite book: The woman book of dreams: Dreaming as a spiritual practice, by Connie Cockrel Kaplan. Beyond Words Publishing Inc.
