Rachel Gobbel Norment 1955, Greensboro, has written a second book, Dream Explorations: A Journey in Self-Knowledge and Self-Realization, which was published in September. The book illustrates through discussion of personal dream series how dream wisdom can guide you towards spiritual growth and physical and psychological health and wholeness. She introduces various contemporary dream work concepts, terminology, and ways of "working" with and "honoring" dreams. She hopes to teach and inspire through personal examples how you can begin to understand the messages from your dreams. This information comes from deep within one's psyche and is made visible through the symbols and metaphors in the dreams. The book is available through Barnes & Noble, Amazon, Balboa Press, and local bookstores.
