A PROPOSED DREAM EXPERIMENT

PHRASE-FOCUSING
DREAM INCUBATION
by
Gayle Delaney, M.A.









      The  Community   Dream  Journal   is   committed   to
fostering   creative   and   true  means  for  establishing
rapport   with   dreams.   To   actualize   this  aim,   it  is
necessary  and  appropriate  to  test these experimental
methods with adventuresome participating subscribers.
We  hope  that  many  of  you  will  actually  attempt  the
proposed  experiment  and  inform us of the results you
observe—both  positive  and  negative.  And  if  for  any
reason you find  the  proposal personally unsuitable or
objectionable,  we  hope  that  you will write and tell us
about  it,  perhaps suggesting constructive alternatives.
A    report    of    the    participants'    observations   and
reactions  to  the  experiment  will  be  prepared  by  the
project's author and will be published  in a future issue
of the
Journal.  The feedback circuit needed for learning
from research will thus be established.
      For our first proposed experiment, we are fortunate
to  have  available   the  creative  efforts  of   Ms.  Gayle
Delaney, a resident of San Francisco.  Gayle graduated
with  Highest  Honors  from  Princeton  University, with
