Everyone dreams – but do you know what your dreams are telling you? In Dream Your Self into Being Dr. Bonnie Buckner shows readers how to use their dreams as tools for personal empowerment. We follow Dr. Buckner on her personal dreaming journey from a ranch in remote West Texas to Oprah, to founding a company, to working on a Presidential campaign. Through dreaming, Dr. Buckner was led to her dreaming teacher who taught her the 13th century Kabbalistic practices of dreaming and imagery that Dr. Buckner now teaches to business and creative professionals around the world today. Readers of Dream Your Self into Being will learn how to work with their dreams and find a step-by-step guide for starting a dream group. Included in the book are imagery exercises to jump start and hone the dreaming process. Buckner passionately believes that listening to one’s dreams and following their messages leads to selfhood, success, and fulfillment. Her enthusiasm inspires readers to pay attention to what their dreams are telling them during the night so they can live the wisdom of their dreams during the day.

Bonnie Bahira Buckner Ph.D
Part I: EXPERIENCING DREAMING
.....
I sent over fifty letters, plus one (the one to Oprah). I heard back from one of the fifty. It was from an alumnus who was a high-level financier at a bank that specialized in loans to entertainment properties. His wife knew someone at the Oprah show, and he knew someone at the company that distributed the show. First, though, he wanted to talk with me.
From my tiny town in Texas and out-in-the-country home, Chicago seemed a million miles away from the phone I held pressed to my ear. And John, the alumnus, was like a superstar with his huge job and connections. The phone felt like a live wire in my hands as I felt a charge being connected to this bigger world of possibilities, and I couldn’t believe John’s kindness to spend a few moments with me.
