with Kate Gallagher, MA, 500 e-RYT

Lucid /ˈlo͞osəd/ means bright, or luminous, indicates clear expression or perception, and refers to periods of clear thinking amidst confusion. In the domain of dreams, to lucid dream is to know one's self as a dreamer, and the dream as merely a dream -- which opens up the dreamer to a great many possibilities to use the sleep state for recreation, meditation, and insight. This course will utilize the book Dreaming Yourself Awake by B. Alan Wallace and will emphasize attentional training and simple tricks and tools as a path to lucid dreaming. We'll contemplate waking up in dreams as an analogy for waking up in our lives.  Books available via GrassRoots Bookstore.
