No More Nightmares: How to Use Planned Dream Intervention to End Nightmares

How would you like to learn a skill that would allow you to stop being woken up by dreams and sleep peacefully through the night? This image is reality for thousands of people who have learned Planned Dream Intervention. This revolutionary book clearly explains Planned Dream Intervention, a skill that can be easily learned, and is different from therapy designed to get rid of certain dream content. This inspiring book explains why there is no such thing as a bad dream. In cultures throughout the world, sleepers are woken up out of dreams with unpleasant content because the sleeping brain is trying to protect the individual from a potential threat. Many people also fear the content of their dreams because they attempt to interpret meaning. Although the content of dreams may be important, dream interpretation often does not help and may cause harm. If a person has disturbing experiences it is normal to have unusual content in their dreams-a wealth of research shows that dreams can help resolve emotional distress from the event. This book contains numerous examples of the type of successful interventions that have helped others start sleeping through the night. The book is also noteworthy with its explanation of how Planned Dream Intervention will help individuals who do not remember dream content, but wake up often despite otherwise good health. One of the most frequent and disturbing symptoms of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is nightmares.

If the individual learns Planned Dream Intervention they usually experience an immediate release from the nightmares and start sleeping peacefully through the night. Readers learning the Planned Dream Intervention skill will find their sleep restful again, and on the path toward health.
