Summary: Dreams, Action and Healing
Review: Wanda Burch has created and lived a wonderful story of her own powerful creative dreaming and healing which goes way beyond autobiography. She describes her childhood, growing up in the South, being descended from a long line of healers. Her dreaming talents became apparent early in life, and were further developed and expressed through her association and friendship with Robert Moss, a true dream-brother. The author describes a series of dreams which predicted and described in amazing detail the onset and extent of her breast cancer, and the treatments which would be necessary for its healing. She also relates a recurrent dream which had evolved over time since her teens, and predicted her death at age 43. This would have been about a year after her diagnosis with the breast cancer. How she uses her dreams as "medicine" to guide her choices, amplify the effects of the standard breast cancer treatments, and ultimately, in the dreamtime, re-negotiate her life contract makes a gripping and inspiring story. As an added bonus, The author includes many practical and powerful techniques and exercises that everyone can use to tap the power of dreams for guidance and healing. This is further augmented by Robert Moss' Appendix containing clear descriptions of "Lightning Dream Work" and other powerful methods for working with dreams. I believe that this book is a major breakthrough in the fields of dreamwork and healing.

Summary: Amazingly Beautiful...
Review: Wanda Burch has done a great service for anyone who has ever gone to a doctor and been sent home because "it's nothing to worry about". Well, yes, sometimes that's so - sometimes it's difficult to distinguish what's Real from what's neurosis. And yet sometimes we get very clear messages about things, and we MUST learn to listen to those feelings. By doing so, Wanda saved her own life. As she says in this beautiful book, Wanda is alive because she dreams. I would amend that to say that she is alive because she Listens to her dreams, and Does something about them.
It really comes down to self-respect, self-worth, and self-knowledge. Whether one's belief system sees dreams as coming from a higher place, or from subliminal intuition, or from daily "brain-drain", the fact remains that if we look at dreams analytically, there's a chance that we'll find something important. If we don't, we certainly won't. And what a shame.
I thank Wanda Burch for writing such an inspiring book. Just since reading it, I have made some observations on my own dreams that I might not have thought of before, and have looked back on times when I had "gut feelings" about situations that later turned out to be dead-on accurate. This is remarkable work, and more people should avail themselves of the healing that comes so naturally with the Dreaming!
Readers may also like to know that Wanda can be seen in a wonderful new series of videos with Robert Moss, called "The Way of the Dreamer" and available from Psyche Productions in Milford CT. Open yourself to the experience of your own dreams!

Summary: A Groundbreaking Book on the Healing Power of Dreams
Review: Wanda Burch has given us a very valuable gift. In her beautifully chronicled account of her own healing journey, she shares rich dream imagery and metaphors in a way that decodes and demystifies a state of being we largely take for granted. Her first-hand account of her own recovery confirms the tremendous healing power one can experience from tapping into an inner wisdom available to us all during the dream state. Wanda teaches the art of honoring our dreams and listening to those sometimes illusive, yet important messages that come through to guide us to higher states of consciousness. Given the amount of time we spend sleeping and perchance dreaming, the book is a groundbreaking testimony that dreaming is a greatly underutilized method for accessing valuable information for healing. Together with Robert Moss, a true pioneer in the field of dream exploration, Wanda's portal into the dream realm brings us a way to restore balance and wholeness to our lives. Anyone interested in understanding the language of dreams and discovering the jewels dreams are made of would benefit greatly from reading "She Who Dreams." To dive further into dream work, I highly recommend reading other books by the dedicated author on dreaming, Robert Moss.
