Through conversations, exercises, Dreaming stories and key messages, in The Dreaming Path Paul Callaghan shares knowledge that reveals the power of Aboriginal spirituality as a profound source of contentment and wellbeing.

According Aboriginal spirituality over the past tens of thousands of years, in order to find your personal path to contentment you must connect with a bigger path called The Dreaming Path. It is the path on which each of us fulfills our responsibility to care for our place and all things in our place, including each other. Each chapter of the book reviews key themes that can help you connect to The Dreaming Path, and in so doing create and maintain improved well-being for yourself and the broader community. Because part of our personal story is about contributing to a bigger story — that of community well-being. And when our path and The Dreaming Path are in alignment, we are well.

Key themes include the importance of story, relationships, sharing, unity, love, gratitude, humility, learning and living your truth, inspiration and resilience, being present and healing from the past, contentment and leadership.

For tens of thousands of years, Aboriginal people have gathered to reinforce relationships, share knowledge, discuss priorities, agree on actions and make changes that ensure the well-being of all. The Western world could benefit from the traditional Aboriginal way of people making more time to connect with each other and build relationships across the demographic spectrum.
