Re: *sigh* confusing, yet disturbing dream, any insight ? post here ...
Your dreams suggests to me that you are under some stress (the bees and the math test) and that there are emotions that are welling up inside of you (flood) that you aren't listening to (dead body).
I'm not sure that telling those negative voices inside of you to just shut up will work. At least, that doesn't work for me :) But you'll find that you hear less from them when you care for yourself and listen to yourself. I wholeheartedly agree with janaki about the yoga. It's good for you mentally and physically. It's also a great destresser. I take classes in hatha, amrit and sivananda, which are all non-strenuous. I always feel much better when I leave class. Secondly, it's really important for you to take of and nurture yourself. Doesn't it seem like those negative voices come out when you are tired and stressed out? Try to take some time for you every day, whether it's for reading, writing, meditating, taking an aromatic bath, whatever. Your mind and body just need some time to rest and enjoy. Buy yourself some toys... and play with them! Paints, a journal book, whatever floats your boat. Lastly, I've found that positive affirmations really work wonderfully. I bought a couple CDs and love listening to them. They say that your mind will believe anything you tell it often enough, so tell yourself what you need to hear. Things like "I feel calm and relaxed", "I no longer feel responsible for other people's happiness", "I am perfect just the way I am", etc.
