PRAISE FOR ANTONIA FELIX'S DREAM EXPERTISE AND WORKSHOP:
TIMOTHY SIPPOLA, PH.D., CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST:
"Antonia's gift for communicating in the down-to-earth language of daily life is richly enhanced by her grasp of the language of dreams. She is so intuitively gifted, and illuminates the dreamscape with the light of wisdom gleaned from years of working earnestly with her own dreams and those of others. Her expertise as a guide who develops insight into the mysteries of the dream and provides tools to pursue investigation and expansion on your own will open you to deepened levels of appreciation of this too-little explored aspect of the Self."
NANCY DEPOE AND NANCY CHIADO, CO-CHAIRS, COLUMBIA MONTOUR WOMEN'S CONFERENCE:
“If dreams are the base materials for creating literary gold, then Antonia Felix is an alchemist, and she willingly shares her secrets in her workshop. Antonia’s passion for the subject engages her audience immediately. She offered her wisdom both in and out of her workshop and encouraged others to share their dream experiences as well.”
MAX MCCOY, DIRECTOR, TALLGRASS WRITERS' WORKSHOP:
“Antonia Felix’s dream seminar was one of the most engaging and talked-about presentations in the history of our workshop. Our writers have had impressive results by following her lead.”

WHY WORK WITH YOUR DREAMS?
WHY WORK WITH YOUR DREAMS?
Everyone is eager to unravel the meaning of dreams that have mystified them for years—recurring dreams, nightmares, emotion-filled dreams that will not let them go. Armed with the basics of symbolic language and the purpose of dreams, anyone can begin to understand and collaborate with the inner guidance system that nature has so masterfully designed.
At the heart of the workshop's message is the revealing fact that dreams are not meant to be tricky, unsolvable riddles. As psychiatrist Carl Jung wrote, “There is no earthly reason why we should assume that [the dream] is a crafty device to lead us astray.” Like every self-balancing system in the body, from our brain chemistry to the immune system, the dreaming mind is designed to bring balance to our emotional and intellectual lives and draw us into a deeper relationship with our innate spiritual nature.
Felix’s interactive workshop presents personal stories of her life-long study of and experience with dreams, facts about cutting-edge dream research and revelations about the powerful symbolic language of dreams, a language that anyone can learn to understand. Attendees leave with a wealth of tools to use immediately, as well as a new-found confidence in the solution-oriented dreaming mind.
WORKSHOP TOPICS INCLUDE:
- A Step-by-Step Dream Recall and Interpretation Method Anyone Can Master
- How Symbols Work and Why the Dreaming Mind Uses Them
- Why Only YOU Can Be the Best Interpreter of Your Dreams
- The Amazing Function of Nightmares
- Unique Characteristics of Creative People’s Dreams
- Selected Universal Dream Symbols
- How Dreams Enhanced the Work of Famous Writers, Artists, Scientists, Inventors, and Musicians from Albrecht Dürer to Paul McCartney and Stephen King
