Episode 9: Dreaming While We Sleep and Living An Intentional, Peaceful, Dreamy Life

Apostrophe Soul Radio

Hi Moon Minnjas!

In today's episode, we discuss why we dream, how dreams connect to our daily lives. How we can and are able to rest better. Triggering the parasympathetic system, protecting our ways of rest and improving how we are able to rejuvenate ourselves by having a nightly routine. We also talk about what our dream lives would look like. How sharing your dreams with others can spark motivation. How setting intentions and being mindful with how we live our lives everyday can lead us to feeling less anxious.

We learn about our crystal of the week: Scolecite

Finishing out the episode, with our special questions for Papa Merlin.

We have so many great resources for you with this episode!
