Discover the remarkable world of nocturnal meditation, where a wealth of wisdom awaits you every night. Lucid dreaming is one 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 “night school” to explore the nature of mind and reality.
During this program we’ll examine the science behind lucidity, the breathtaking benefits, Eastern and Western techniques to induce lucid dreams, and what to do with them. Learn how lucid dreaming leads to lucid living and lucid dying. Discover how this ancient practice can change your brain, facilitate healing, and wake you up spiritually.
