Dreams speak to us on deep levels. Through dreaming we open a gateway to our inner world. Through lucid dreaming we open to conscious interaction with the surroundings, happenings, and living beings within the dreamscape.
Over many years, animal communicator Dawn Baumann Brunke dreamed of polar bears. One night, a lucid dream triggered the realization that not only was she dreaming of a living polar bear but also that the polar bear was dreaming of her. Through shared dream encounters, Brunke became adept at connecting with the bear both while asleep and awake. Together, they explored nonphysical locales where lucid dreamers meet to join in consciousness and co-dream together.
Recounting the dreams she had with polar bears as well as with a council of spirit bears, Brunke presents techniques she learned to enter shared dreamscapes and form meaningful dream relationships with other species. Brunke also examines how our assumptions about polar bears, or any animal, can teach us about ourselves. As we awaken to the wisdom of our dreams, we begin to heal ourselves and our Earth.
Sharing ways to recall dreams and engage lucid dream awareness, Brunke shows how dreamwork can help us forge deeper connections with the natural world and move more consciously in planetary evolution with all beings. Guided by the polar bears in her dreams, the sacred guardians of North Pole evolutionary energy, Brunke reveals how we can each dream ourselves awake and, with animal companions and guides, help dream a new world into being.
“Dreaming with Polar Bears is beautiful, powerful, and enchanting and invites us to grow our experience of the dreaming universe. We learn that as we become conscious dreamers we are never confined to one form or one world. What better mentor than a polar bear who is dreaming with you?”
“In this remarkable book, Dawn Brunke reminds us that we exist within an interconnected oneness of depth, beauty, and awareness--if only we wake up, look around, and listen. Lucid dreaming helps us experience deeper connections in a life-altering way and recognize the living awareness of other species, our shared planet, and the vast universe. Dreaming with Polar Bears encourages us all to wake up, remember, and understand this ancient knowledge.”
“Right from the introduction you will be drawn in, fascinated by Dawn Brunke’s exploration of conscious dreaming and her ability to deeply communicate with animals. Her enthralling exploration will explode your awareness into new possibilities. Read and dream on.”
“More than once I’ve fallen into the arms of Dawn Brunke’s books with joyful delight, and Dreaming with Polar Bears has had me falling all over again. The author is a wise guide of oft-hidden transhistorical traditions. She gives us all a much needed reminder of how to restore our connections to the vital realities of the dreaming world and the world of dreaming.”
