Perinatal Dreaming

Illuminating the unconscious dimensions of the psyche connected
​to our time in the womb, birth and early postnatal experiences.

​Welcome to Perinatal Dreaming. 

​Perinatal Dreaming reveals through art; the internal "Country" that is the interface between the Dreamtime, Archetypal domains and our biographical experiences and stories.

​These internal frontiers of the psyche remain underestimated in their potential to dynamically
​influence how we perceive and interact with the world. (Grof, S 1999).
