Moody reveals how dreams can support psychological development and spiritual insight after midlife. Unlike the early phases of life, the second half often unfolds without clear direction. Moody shows how dreams can provide an inner roadmap for navigating ageing, identity, and mortality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith illustrative case studies, Moody details how dreams reflect key stages of ageing. He explores midlife transitions, late-life depression, illness and caregiving, and the inner work of grief, forgiveness, and life review. Presenting a range of dream types, including recurring dreams, nightmares, and symbolic dreams, Moody explains their relevance to healing and self-understanding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe author introduces tools for recalling and reflecting on dreams and offers guidance on approaching them with attention rather than analysis. He draws from depth psychology, literature, and spiritual traditions to demonstrate how dreams can reveal unacknowledged emotions, inspire creative work, and reconnect us with forgotten or repressed parts of the self. Over time, you will learn how to access the unconscious dimensions of your ageing process and identify where change may be needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis book offers a practical framework for engaging with the unconscious during the transitions of growing older. By treating dreams as a form of guidance, you can uncover unfinished emotional work, strengthen your sense of purpose, and reclaim the imagination as a vital force for personal transformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster NZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47456427147500,"sku":"9798888503409","price":39.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/815a12b48049f73659127a42eb77b0fc.jpg?v=1775016611","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/the-power-of-dreams-in-later-life-by-harry-r-moody-9798888503409","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
