Edward Bynum – When We Dream About Our Families

About this episode

In a perfect dreaming world, we’d be sharing our dreams every day with our loved ones. The truth is most people don’t do this, but if they did they’d notice an interesting phenomenon. About twenty percent of our dreams involve our families—either by having dreams about other family members or by having dreams that are similar to our relatives.
We know about this from the work of my guest, clinical psychologist Edward Bruce Bynum, whose research into hundreds of dreams was highlighted in his book, The Dreamlife of Families. In our insightful discussion, Edward reveals:
•why we dream about family members
•the peril of ignoring family dreams
•what crisis telepathy dreams tell us
•the family dream that’s more common that most people think
•the types of families more prone to dream together
•how different cultures deal with their family dreams
•the one group of people who have the most intense family dreams
Dreaming about family members can give us insights—and even warnings—we might not get from any other source. If you want to know how to get results from your family dreams, you won’t want to miss this enlightening episode of Dream Power Radio.
Edward Bruce Bynum, Ph.D., ABPP is a licensed psychologist and Diplomat in clinical psychology, nationally certified in biofeedback and senior fellow in the National Association for Applied Psychophysiology and Biofeedback. Focus is psychosomatic medicine, hypnosis and individual psychotherapy.
