3 Dreams + Insight

Last night, I drove to the western part of my state, to visit my creative friend, Mollie. I arrived a little before midnight to the cabin in the woods and after we talked for a few hours -- the first round of catching up on each others' lives -- I went to sleep. No remembered dreams, though.

When I woke up, it was early still, so I let Emma outside, fed her, then crawled back under the covers. As I was settling in, I thought, "Oh, the reason I haven't remembered a dream for the past few nights is that I forgot to ask." So I asked. And in a 2-hour span, came 3 dreams.

Dream 1
I'm waking up in the cabin. Mollie is still sleeping. I've brought my kitty, Shadow and he greets me. I'm a little worried that he'll figure out a way to escape through the cat door -- he's an indoor cat, so that would be a disaster. Then I realize I forgot his food, so I forage in Mollie's kitchen for some cat food (she has a cat, too, but it isn't there), I find some. Before I give it to Shadow, I realize now that I've totally forgotten his kitty litter box. NOT GOOD, so I start trying to figure out how to rig a litter box.

Dream 2
I'm searching Mollie's house for a bathroom, the one downstairs is occupied, so I walk upstairs. There's a chamber pot behind some chairs her brother and a woman are sitting, talking to each other. They don't notice I'm squatting on the pot. And I don't realize I haven't pulled my pants down until I'm already peeing.

Dream 3
I'm walking around Washington DC. The Russians have installed a new monument that has been the topic of much conversation and head-scratching. The symbol looks vaguely like a bullet with propellers on each side but it's hollow, so if you stand from the Russian side and look through it, the target is the Whitehouse. As I examine the structure of the memorial, I know that it's intended to be used for something more than it seems.

Insight (not about the dreams)
As I drove last night, I listened to CDs from the "Tapping World Summit 2013". The one that's most thought-provoking is David Feinstein talking about the research behind Energy Psychology and meridian tapping. I'm still pondering and working out what makes meridian tapping effective. HOW does it work?

I'm still sorthing through information, but this is what's becoming clear:

Every cell in our bodies is like a battery. Each has a "charge".
Stress degrades the charge and the body's ability to fluidly move the electrical charge.
The more stress, the less the cells are able to communicate easily and effectively.
Organs are affected.
"The meridians ennervate the organs" came from a hypnosis session.
So, if the foundation of meridian tapping is, "The source of all disease is a disruption in the body's energy system," then the intervention is at the energetic/electrical level.
Tapping stimulates the energy to flow appropriately.
When energy/our electrical system is fully functional, then we have more access to the capacity of every cell.

That's all I've got today.
