Every night after we go to sleep we become the star of a major motion picture. Scene by scene we are literally drawn into a drama that surpasses any movie. In this movie, we're the star. But unlike any other movie our whole mind, body and imagination is involved in such a way that our brain is convinced that it's actually happening to us. No matter how bizarre the situation or the images, and when we wake up we may find ourselves still sweating from the fright, or still trying to escape some unknown entity that has been chasing us. We may find ourselves still haunted by the images or feelings for years, or in some cases, the rest of our life. So why not look at the dream as it is… a movie. And in doing so, we can use the same techniques that actors use to understand the characters they play in solving our own dilemmas with our starring roles, "by Acting Your Dreams."
