| SCHOOL OF LIVING DREAMS MISSION STATEMENT Our intent is to guide you through:
no matter its shape, color, size, number or uniqueness is deserving of love, dignity and the freedom to blossom into the fullness of its being. The School of Living Dreams is dedicated to helping all who seek to flower into the beauty of their own souls and open to their higher, deeper, truer, wilder, more authentic, passionate, creative and powerful Selves. We serve as protective guides through the labyrnths of imagination, the passage ways of transformation, the stairways leading downward into the caves of the psyche where the most glorious treasures and mysteries beg to be unearthed. We serve as the humble, healing ears of Spirit, deeply listening to the hidden messages whispered, screamed, sung sublimly by YOUR voice, in YOUR dreams, YOUR metaphors, YOUR laughter, YOUR sacred wounds and in the natural world, the extension of YOUR being. Then we open our hearts and our mouths to become the lutes and the bird's song and the faery-taled looking glass, reflecting back the unique songs of the individual, the collective, the Whole. At the School of Living Dreams, we believe that wisdom is gained from experiencial learning, from open and courageous communication and from awareness: this is what and how we teach. We understand that we can only take our students as high and as deep as we are selves have gone or are willing to go, and therefore must be willing to jump into the abyss of the unknown again and again and again. We have faith that when an individual accesses and celebrates his or her unique gifts, talents, dreams, ancestors, innate guides, animal AND angelic natures, a profound healing and empowerment takes place. Since life is a web and all living creatures are intimately connected, the raising of consciousness and quality of life for one means the betterment of all. We seek to improve the bonds between all people, and people to their living environment, in order to effect positive cultural change and to make the Earth a better place for ourselves and our grandchildren's children. We have come together to dream together, and the art of dreaming, of loving and living is ultimately what the School of Living Dreams is here to do. |

"The quest I was on was a beginning of a massive amount of healing that has taken place over
the last few years dealing first with balancing and healing my male and female energies and my
relationship with my parents...the two main masculine and feminine energies that I started with
as examples in this lifetime...thus making me feel as though I am more capable of being and
becoming the parent that I feel I want to be"

| TESTIMONIALS |
"The workshop "nature dreams and metaphor' led by AnnMarie Molnar and Amy Katz was
the most amazing workshop of any kind I've ever taken anywhere! The entire weekend
seemed transformed into a magical dreamscape.....Our waking dream blended with our
sleeping
dreams....alone and with one another! Amy and Ann Marie sustained a nurturing, inspiring
and safe space and gave just the right amount of guidance. We seemed effortlessly drawn to
express dream ' in our own unique ways: prose/poetry/movement/drama/storey telling/visual
arts/sound.... Big magic came from deep sharing with one another.....a group soul
seemed to naturally emerge.....profound insight and healing followed...... Many weeks later I
still feel blessed and transformed by this experience...... it still feels 'alive' and evolving! .....
AND...I've been motivated to act on those 'insights'."
