Layne Dalfen founded the Dream Interpretation Center in Montreal in 1997. Her interest in dreams stems from her early experience in Freudian analysis, where dream work was the primary tool. In the latter half, she discussed how to uncover the solutions to the relevant issues that appear in our dreams every night. One method she shared is taking the images provided by one's dreams and unconscious outside into your waking life, which can yield new insights into problem-solving and instigating changes. Don't push away your dreams when you wake up in the morning, she advised, as many people get caught up with their day's priorities, and let their dream memories slide away.
One method for increasing dream recall, she recounted, is to look closely at every detail of the room you are sitting in. Then close your eyes and walk around the room in your mind's eye, as this exercises a part of the brain related to inner and outer locations. Also, setting an intention before going to sleep so that you'll remember your dreams can be helpful. There are various points of entry for understanding or analyzing a dream, said Dalfen, and one of them is the language we hear in the dream, which may come in the form of a powerful metaphor.
