The Path of Awakening Through Sleep and Dream
Discover the remarkable world of nocturnal meditation, where a wealth of wisdom awaits you every night.
Lucid dreaming is the first of five nocturnal practices, which include liminal dreaming, dream yoga, sleep yoga and bardo yoga. These meditations offer boundless potential for psychological and spiritual growth, and provide a unique opportunity to explore the nature of mind and reality.
During this program we’ll explore the science behind lucidity, how to induce lucid dreams, what to do with them, and how to transcend any obstacles. This platform then allows us to explore the other four meditations.
Learn how lucid dreaming leads to lucid living and lucid dying, and how this ancient practice can change your brain, facilitate healing, and spiritually wake you up.
