Abstract

The current study examined the effects of meditation on waking day depression levels (BDI), waking day trait anxiety levels (BAI-T) and dream imagery in University students. The Storytelling Method was used to conduct dream interpretations, using word associations and story narrative. This seminar will address the results, which are consistent with past research, as well as the implications and applications of dream work and meditation in clinical and applied practice.
