"That all by itself is proof that we split in the first place because we were supposed to survive the experience ...." I wonder how on earth I lived. I really do. The idea that I was supposed to live is kind of inspiring. "prescription dreams" :-) I like that. Austin Oh Heather, what a wonderful thought…..

It does help, for sure. I still deal with sleep anxiety and insommina, it's one of the last "things" that has not gone away. So, I paint all of it out all the time, and now, while dreaming I have taught myself to tell my dream self (before going to sleep) that if I need to pull out of something I look at my dream hands in the dream, and most times in the palms of my dream hands is the image I need to paint to resolve the issue my brain is dealing with...I call them my perscription dreams...all of those paiintings get done and sold quickly and they are always powerful. The faceless people started as a perscription, and evolved into a healing for my brain and many people who have bougt them have reported (with no information from me about me) that they have found strange healings happen to them after taking the paintings home and living with them. Intersting, right? after ten years of this happening A LOT, I have found that art that heals...keeps on healing, maybe even forever. I think that's a gift from the universe for all our hard work to become unified and stop thinking of these issues as "bad" and see them for the brilliant survial skill that they are. We made it out...and we are not crazy. That all by itself is proof that we spilt in the first place because we were supposed to survive the experience and be healers for the world and ourselves. Just my thoughts. Heather Yes I used this sorta thing on my journey too. It does help, for sure. I still deal with sleep anxiety and insommina, it’s one of the last “things” that has not gone away.

Yes it is and trust me, my brain is **tired** of information. It would be so nice to just sleep and not have dreams with the so many details and so much switching around. What is written above wasn't a dream at all, it's the re-write to the dreams I had about being chased and escaping with my life. I'm not sure if you're familiar with dream therapy or not but what you do is you write down everything you remember about the dream then you re-write it to end the way you want it to end. It's actually quite helpful. The information load is heavy in my dreams all the time. I mean dang, they go on and on and on. They twist and turn, morph into something else and leave me more tired than when I went to sleep. I really hate dreaming but I like having some kind of control over them. I think dream therapy helps. If I'm too stressed to re-write the dream I'll paint it out. The painting <a href="http://www.sundrip.com/journal/2008/09/19/painted-dreams/" rel="nofollow">On The Eve of Something Beautiful</a> is a dream therapy piece as is <a href="http://www.sundrip.com/journal/2008/07/02/shape-shifting/" rel="nofollow">Three Birds</a> and the painting called <a href="http://www.sundrip.com/journal/2008/06/30/one/" rel="nofollow">ONE</a> (which includes a poem). Thanks for commenting and assuring me that there is a way out of the forest. sincerely, Austin @ Heather,
