This is the first entry for my new blog about Dreamweaving. The idea arose from several books I read on Vision Boards and Creative writing. A year ago we created 3 Dreamweaving collages each. We found it fun and helpful, and thought we could offer it to other people. Last year we offered it to 4 people as a day course and it was very well received. The follow-on courses were delayed due to Lowri becoming a grandmother and Pauline breaking her leg.
However the course has now been extended into and evening class lasting 5 weeks as it gives people more time to reflect.
Our Backgrounds
I am Pauline Matthews, and I trained as an Orthoptist (specialising in the eye muscles) and worked in the NHS for many years retiring 3 years ago. Thirteen years ago I completed training as a Counsellor and I now work privately from home. I have understaken many other courses including using images in counselling. My great interest at the moment is in photography.
My friend Lowri Thomas, who is helping me with the Dreamweaving, taught for 30 years. She has a degree in Psychology, Sociology and Philosophy and was the headteacher of Dinas School. Her life took a new direction and she re-trained as a Welsh Translator. She is very creative and has a HND in Fine Art and a BTech in textiles.
