David, what an awesome dream. You seemed to feel so safe and comfortable in there, not trapped, in panic or like you wanted to escape at all. Thank you so much for sharing that. I will visualize your dream and try out to implement that comfortable and secure feeling you are describing.

andee, I deeply believe many of us had our phobia from a trauma in our lives which means that you are totally out of control during that moment. It can even be a subconscious memory, or what Sage call it; a "body memory".
When you think of that, it's really not strange at all that we are being such controlfreaks.
