Have you ever become aware that you were dreaming while still being in the dream? Then you have experienced a lucid dream! In a lucid dream, you can control any and all aspects of the dream, essentially doing whatever you want with no boundaries like gravity or linear time. It’s one of the most powerful tools you can use to be a powerful navigator of your dream time.
Lucid dreaming has been documented as early as the fourth century B.C.E in the writings of Greek philosopher Aristotle and cultivating the ability to be aware while dreaming is central to both the ancient Hindu practice of Yoga nidra and the Tibetan Buddhist practice of dream Yoga. Scientific research of lucid dreaming began as early as 1913, and many theories and practices have emerged over the last 100 years. We will explore both the ancient and modern theories of lucid dreaming in our time together, including tools you can implement in your own life to become more lucid in your dreams.
Lucid Dreaming offers endless possibilities to transform your waking life. For example, lucid dreaming has helped many people transform repetitive nightmares. It’s great for problem-solving and decision making. Some lucid dreamers have worked on healing injured and diseased parts of their body in the dreamtime, which translated into actual documented physical healing in their waking state. Lucid dreaming is even good for practicing a skill you want to get better at in waking life, because it has been scientifically proven that when we lucidly practice a skill in dream time, we enhance our neuroplasticity in exactly the same way as practicing it in real life, because the brain believes it is actually doing that thing.
Whether you are a already a skilled lucid dreamer, or fear that you will never be able to do it, this class series has something vibrant and valuable to offer you. There will also be space in the class for students to share their own lucid dreaming questions and experiences to explore with the group. By the end of the class, students will have a solid foundation to start (or continue!) lucid dreaming, and be able to live a richer and wiser life through this powerful dreaming tool.
What students have said about this class:
“Tristy is an incredible teacher with a remarkable depth of expertise drawn from psychoanalysis, philosophy, cultural studies, art history, and her own fascinating artwork. When working with her students, she has a delightful exuberance and a seemingly limitless well of kindness and empathy. Tristy’s class helped me collaborate with my dreams to better understand my waking life, process unresolved grief, and enrich my creative practice.” – Virgil Wong, artist and digital technologist
Tristy Taylor is a Portland, Oregon-based dream worker, teacher, ordained interfaith minister and animal communicator. Raised by world-renowned dream worker Jeremy Taylor--co-founder of the International Association for the Study of Dreams--and dream artist Kathryn Taylor, she has been working with her dreams from the very beginning. Before she could write, she was drawing and talking about her dreams at the breakfast table, and therefore grew up with a deep connection and an ever-deepening wisdom in how the dream world works. She has been leading dream groups since she was 15-years old, and over the last three decades, she has grown her own dream work offerings to include art making and ritual as guided by the dream world, as well as opening the rich secrets of nightmare imagery. She has a Masters of Art & Consciousness from John F. Kennedy University, and she is currently adjunct faculty at the Chaplaincy Institute for Interfaith Ministry, where she teaches Dreamwork, Ritual Crafting, and Being with Death and Dying. She sees clients one-on-one and also facilitates online dream workshops every season. Find out more about her work and sign up for her newsletter at www.createwithspirit.com.
