Dreaming Through Darkness: Shine Light into the Shadow to Live the Life of Your Dreams
Paperback / softback
Main Details
Description
Learn how to fearlessly embrace your shadow side in both your dreams and daily life, thereby manifesting the awakened power of your full potential. The Shadow is the part of us made up of all that we hide from others- our shame, our fears, and our wounds, but also our divine spirit, our blinding beauty, and our hidden talents. The Shadow is not bad - in fact it is the source of our creativity and power - but until we bring it into the light this power will remain untapped and our full potential unreached. Being a shadow-worker (rather than simply a "light-worker") is a new holistic approach to spiritual growth that doesn't shy away from our hidden aspects but instead uses them for alchemical change and harnesses the power of the shadow to manifest gold from within! The dark shadow can be seen as the cellar of our unexamined shame, and our light shadow can be seen as the attic of our unclaimed brilliance. Imagine if you could regain the power that lies in your hidden places and bring your darkness into the light? Imagine if you could have less stress, more energy, and more creativity through tapping into the disowned source of the shadow? Imagine if you could actually meet your shadow in a lucid dream? You can, and this book will show you how. Using practical "how to" exercises sourced from lucid dreaming and dream-work, Tibetan Buddhism, and mindfulness meditation, Charlie Morley takes us on a revolutionary journey deep into the dazzling darkness of spiritual transformation. This book explores how to- Transform the dark and light shadow side Meet the shadow through your dreams Unlock your creativity Transform Nightmares through lucid dreaming Manifest your hidden potential Make friends with fear & anxiety Decrease stress through Mindfulness of Dream & Sleep This book will show you how to fearlessly embrace your shadow side in both your dreams and daily life, thereby manifesting the awakened power of your full potential. Now is the time to harness the power of your dark-side, now is the time to become a shadow-worker!

I learned so much from this book and know I will return to it time and time again.' David R. Hamilton PhD, author of How Your Mind Can Heal Your Body and The Five Side Effects of Kindness 'I have known Charlie for a long time and I consider him a very positive influence in the world. In this book he guides people in how to be more helpful human beings. I strongly believe his authentic confidence and sound mind give him the ability to do this.' Lama Yeshe Rinpoche, Abbot of Samye Ling Monastery 'To dare to go into the dark I need a guide I know I can trust. Charlie Morley is that guide. What I love most about this wonderful book is Charlie's courage in authentically sharing his own shadow with me. Inspired by his enthusiasm for transformation and his willingness to be vulnerable, I feel ready for my own journey of discovery, going into the dark to find the light.' Tim Freke, author of Lucid Living and Soul Story 'Charlie Morley has written a fine book that brings a fresh and modern approach to working with the shadow. He has created a pathway to integrate the shadow in a down-to-earth and yet inspiring way, led by his own walking-his-talk approach to life. Charlie is the real deal. I wholeheartedly recommend this book.'

Rob Nairn, author of Living, Dreaming, Dying 'I have always been fascinated by what the ancient Mexicans named the Cave: the place where our ancestral patterns, instincts, personal story and highest potential reside. This book has offered me new ways to work with my own Cave in order to be a better person. I really believe that the practices in this book could be life changing for many people.' Sergio Magana, author of Caves of Power and The Toltec Secret 'Morley surpasses discussion of dream yoga by inviting the inspired reader into the experience itself. To understand the pages ahead is to quicken the evolution of one's conscious awakening.' Lama Choyin Rangdrol, author of Black Buddha
