Have you ever wondered what your dreams mean? One organization in Springfield is devoted to helping people from all walks of life interpret them. KSMU’s Mike Donnelly reports.
The School of Metaphysics in Springfield has over 40 years of experience analyzing dreams and how the mind works in order to help people make real changes in their lives
Although the term “metaphysics” may intimidate some, Stephanie Cartwright, an instructor at The School of Metaphysics, breaks it down in layman’s terms.
“Briefly, it is the study of the mind. ‘Meta’ means beyond or above, and ‘physics’ is the physical, so what we are studying is how the mind works; that does include dreams,” she said.
The school will be hosting the premier of a documentary, “The Edge of Dreaming,” that explores the inner workings of the mind and the meaning of dreams.
“It is based on the life of Amy Hardie, who transformed her life based on dreams,” Cartwright said.
The film takes place over the period of a year, where Hardie, a renown science film maker, investigates the influence of dreams on reality based upon eerie coincidences in her own life that were foretold in her dreams.
“It is quite thought provoking, and will offer the viewer many opportunities to reach out after the showing to the students and the teachers of the school of metaphysics to ask more questions about their dreams”
The showing of the film will be taking place this Saturday in two different locations, both beginning at 7 p.m. The Springfield viewing will be at the Orchard Park Apartments Community Theater, located at 2601 North Cresthaven Avenue, and Lebanon residents can see it at the Lebanon Art Guild & Gallery.Admission for both locations is free and it is open to the public.
