It's easier to catch up with 100 friends on Facebook than to spend time with just one and we can't sit still without our smartphone, iPad, iPod, and laptop flashing and beeping new messages to us every few seconds. Dr. Orloff says patience, a nearly forgotten virtue, is the cure for techno-despair — and it can be relearned and practiced using simple techniques that will increase productivity, job happiness, and less stress.

HOW TO HARNESS THE POWER OF YOUR DREAMS TO MAKE TOUGH DECISIONS.

Inception, the summer’s blockbuster thriller starring Leonardo DiCaprio, explored the inexorable connection between dream and waking worlds.  Well known for her work in dream psychology, Dr. Orloff appeared in the companion documentary working with the actor Joseph Gordon Levitt.  Orloff says that being mindful of the unconscious thoughts you have during dreams, which you can’t easily access when you are awake, often results in smarter decision making than over thinking does. She will share techniques for remembering your dreams, tips to decode them—including the meaning of common dreams like taking a test but not knowing the answers, being naked in front of a crowd, and flying—and how to get a question answered using your dreams.
