This workshop combines the power of the Australian Didgeridoo with Stellar Healingas a therapeutic tool. Originating in Egypt, Stellar Healingis an effective technique for healing the physical/emotional body using astrology as our guide. This process attunes the body to specific planetary energies then passes this energy through the hands of the healer into the person receiving the healing. Each planet has a specific frequency, which directly corresponds to a specific musical tone. By applying circular breathing or the basic drone of your didgeridoo with the correct planetary musical tone the human body becomes a tuning fork for cosmic energy, enabling the Didgeridoo to act as a healing instrument.
The sound that emanates from the Didgeridoo creates different overtones that are too high in frequency for the human ear to pick up. The cells and bones in the human body, however, do pick up these overtones, thereby attuning not only the healer, but also the person receiving the healing, to the desired planetary energy. This planetary energy can then be applied to assist in the healing of physical and emotional illness. Through directed intention the Didgeridoo player can focus the energy to the cells of the human body and generate a healing response for themselves or another person. By applying this technique, each person will learn how to play their Didgeridoo using circular breathing to generate powerful rhythms for healing. During the interactive performance/dance portion of the workshop, everyone will have a chance to experience the healing power of the Didgeridoo.
The goal of this workshop is to enable the participants to learn to use this technique for self-healing and to provide everyone with resources that they can take home and use for their own well being.
SCHEDULE
Day 1: A two-hour introduction with interactive performance/dance for learning and experiencing the power of the Didgeridoo. Next each person will learn how to make
a Didgeridoo made of PVC. We will create the Didgeridoo then paint it and learn how to apply the wax. This will be your tool that you will use for the rest of the seminar,
Day 2: Workshop 1 – Focusing on getting the sweet spot. The sweet spot is when you get a drone sound and hold it with very little effort. By finding the sweet spot with your Didgeridoo you will begin to understand the process of circular breathing and have a tool that can produce powerful healing overtones. You can then begin healing with your Didgeridoo regardless of whether or not you are able to practice circular breathing.
Day 3: Workshop 2 – Continue to learn circular breathing; practicing the Didgeridoo with basic rhythms; using your voice. We will explore how you can begin to tune your consciousness to the cosmic planetary energies simply by changing your voice while playing the Didgeridoo drone.
Day 4: Workshop 3 – Circular breathing;Practicing with visualization. Building energy for Stellar Healing; This workshop combines everything learned in the previous workshops with the proper planetary energies. Whether or not you are able to circular breath, you will still have a powerful healing tool that can be used to produce cosmic planetary energies. The primary focus of this workshop will be on your birth chart and where to direct the powerful sounds of your Didgeridoo within your physical body. Every participant will receive a copy of their astrological birth chart in this workshop. In the evening we will get to experience a Mayan or Native American Steam Bath (Temazcal)
The effectiveness of the workshops is enhanced in the outdoors. By interacting with Nature each participant can experience the inner connection between the Didgeridoo, Nature and themselves.

The acronym MILD stands for Mnemonic Induction of LDs. A mnemonic is a memory-aid, and MILD is a LD induction technique based on memory. This is why we have been improving our memories. The MILD technique is based on remembering that we want to recognize when we are dreaming. Our efforts up until now have been to teach ourselves to carry out intentions to do things in the future by mental effort alone (no written reminder notes!) and by increasing our powers of concentration. Because MILD is practiced during the night, it is very useful for producing multiple LDs in one night. Each time we do MILD, our aim is to become lucid in our very next dream. If we practice MILD before each REM period, we could become lucid in four or five different dreams. MILD is the technique of choice if the goal is to learn to have LDs at will, whenever we like.
MILD requires concentration and short periods of wakefuness during the night, so it is best used when you have extra time available for sleep. The following steps guide you through MILD. The exercise has you first practice while you are alert in the daytime, then at bedtime, and finally after awakening from a dream in the night. This allows you to build up your skill at MILD when your mind is in the best shape—wide awake—so that you know what you are doing when it comes to practicing it when you are groggy in the middle of the night.
Exercise
Mneumonic Induced LD 1. Daytime Practice A. Memorize a dream. Right after awakening in the morning and recording your dreams of the night before, choose one in which you would really have liked to become lucid. Memorize it in detail so that you can visualize yourself being conscious through it again. B. Pick a time to practice. Set aside twenty minutes in the day to practice the MILD technique. It should be a time when you can be alone in a quiet place, in a comfortable chair. Pick a time when you will be alert, not sleepy. C. Sit down and relax. At your chosen time, sit down and get comfortable. Do a relaxation exercise. 2. Practice MILD A. Recall your chosen dream. With your eyes closed, recall to mind the dream you memorized this morning. Visualize yourself back in it. Feel yourself being in the dream, thinking the thoughts of the dream, seeing the sights of the dream, hearing the sounds of the dream. B. Focus your intent. Concentrate on the thought/autosuggestion “The next time I’m dreaming, I’ll remember to recognize that I’m dreaming.” C. See yourself becoming lucid. Visualize yourself becoming lucid in the dream you have memorized. Feel the excitement of becoming lucid, and picture yourself doing what you would like to do once you are lucid. See yourself waking from your LD at will and remembering it perfectly. See and feel yourself enjoying the LD exaltation experience after you awaken. 3. Bedtime Practice A. Memorize a dream. Just as for the Daytime Practice, in the morning commit to memory one dream from the night before in which you would have liked to become lucid. B. Prepare for sleep. When you are ready to go to bed for the night, get ready as usual. Follow your usual bedtime routine. If you wish, give yourself some time to mull over the day’s events, so you can let them go to concentrate on the MILD Exercise. C. Relax. Use the relaxation exercise that works best for you to release tension and achieve a quiet state of mind. But don’t let yourself fall asleep yet. 4. Practice MILD A. Follow the instructions for the Daytime Practice of MILD above, except continue the exercise, cycling through recalling the dream, focusing your intent, and seeing yourself becoming lucid, doing whatever you wish, wakening when you wish, remembering everything about the LD, feeling the post-LD exaltation after you waken, over and over again until you fall asleep. 5. Mid-Sleep Practice A. Set your intention to awaken from dreams. As you fall asleep for the night, assert to yourself that you will awaken after dreams during the night. Remind yourself that you want to recall your dreams clearly and to do the MILD Exercise. B. Awaken from a dream and recall it. When you awaken from a dream in the night, first recall it in as much detail as you can, and then write out enough of it to describe the basic events and scenes of the dream. C. Increase your wakefulness. Get out of bed. Go to the bathroom and wash your face with cool water. Carefully test reality to make sure that you are actually awake! Do some stretches to increase your circulation and alertness. D. Return to bed. Get back in bed, and read your dream report, noting any important recurring dream images you find in it. Stephen LaBerge calls these recurring dream images “dreamsigns,” and uses them as triggers for lucidity. Tell yourself that when you next see any of the dreamsigns you will recognize them as cues that you are dreaming. E. Turn out the light and relax. Do a relaxation exercise to release tension and calm your mind. Don’t go to sleep yet! 6. Practice MILD A. Recall your dream. Visualize yourself back in the dream you just awakened from. B. Focus your intent. Concentrate on the thought/autosuggestion, “The next time I’m dreaming, I’ll remember to recognize that I’m dreaming.” C. See yourself becoming lucid. Visualize yourself becoming lucid in the dream you just had. Pick one of your dreamsigns and imagine that it cues you to realize that you are dreaming. Feel the excitement of becoming lucid, and picture yourself doing what you would like to do once you are lucid. Lay it on thick, have a good time. When you’ve had enough fun, and accomplished whatever you set out to do, see yourself waking from your LD at will and remembering it perfectly. See and feel yourself enjoying the post-LD exaltation experience after you awaken. D. Maintain your focus. Cycle through steps A., B., and C. until you fall asleep. Again, if the concentration keeps you awake for more than twenty minutes and this bothers you, let go and just make sure your last thought is of your intention to remember to become lucid. However, staying awake and concentrating longer may enhance your chances of having a LD that night.
(Adapted from The Lucidity Institute, Inc. 1998)
This technique for becoming lucid in a dream is the same as becoming lucid in the waking state.
The dreamsigns that are found and used in practicing Mild have a direct relationship to the major events that occur in our lives. That is, the major events that happen in our lives, especially those that surround discord, are signs for becoming aware. Discordant events that affect our lives in a major way are caused by vibrations in the dream body as they are expressing themselves. The dreamsigns, or recurring events that appear in the dream, are used to attain lucidity (awareness) within the dream. Therefore, knowing the different vibrations of the dream body as they express themselves is lucidity in the waking state. As we become familiar with the various exercises of attaining awareness and gaining control in the dream state, we can use that knowledge and apply it to our waking lives. In conscious manifestation, waking signs that occur during our day to day lives are important. By practicing applying control through intention in the LD, and by applying certain exercises based on alchemy when our waking signs are present, we can move toward mastering the art of directed thinking and induced emotion.

In order to make various techniques of LD incubation successful, we need to be able to remember to do things that we have planned to do. Psychologists call this “prospective memory” development. We all use prospective memory every day to remind us to do necessary and ordinary things, such as picking up the laundry, paying bills, meeting appointments, and brushing our teeth. Prospective memory becomes more difficult when the planned action is new to us, and we are not stimulated to remember it by frequent, salient cues. Unfortunately, we cannot use written memos to help us remember to do things in our dreams, and that makes it quite challenging to remember to carry out our intention to recognize when we are dreaming.
One way around this difficulty is to make a habit of questioning our mental state. This is the purpose of the Reflection/Intention exercise explained below. Another way is to develop our prospective memory so that we don’t have to rely on external cues to remember to notice when we are dreaming. Memory in general seems to be somewhat less functional in the dream state than in the waking state.
The following exercises will help you remember to do things by mental effort alone. This exercise is designed to condition your memory to ask yourself if you are dreaming or awake at the appropriate times. This exercise for LD teaches you how to ask if your are dreaming when a dream sign is present, and strengthens your memory. Practicing this exercise for LD can also condition your memory to apply the Mnemonic manifestation exercise that follows. When your waking signs are present in life in this way, you are using the road to LD as a guide to conscious manifestation.
EXERCISE: Prospective Memory Development: 7- Day Calendar A. Memorize targets.
The Prospective Memory Targets table below shows seven days of targets. When you get up in the morning, before doing anything else, read the targets for the day. Memorize them, and put the sheet of paper where you won’t see it during the day.
B. Watch for targets.
Throughout the entire day, watch for your targets. Your goal is to notice the very first occurrence of each event. When you notice one, perform a State Test. You are aiming to observe each target one time, the first time it occurs.
C. Record hits and misses.
Keep track of your success in your Dream Class notebook or your dream journal. You have hit a target if you noticed it the first time it happened. If you miss a target the first time it happens and realize it later, that is a miss, even if you remember it the second time it happens. If you are sure that a target did not happen during the day, note “never happened” in your notebook or journal.
D. Count your hits.
Try to hit more targets each day, until you can easily hit all five. E. Continue for seven days.
Each day, read only the targets for that day. Don’t refer to them again until the end of the day, to tally your hits and misses. Complete instructions are on the Prospective Memory Development sheet. Day 1 Targets

From the Lucidity Institute by Stephen LaBerge
We were introduced to autosuggestion above. Here, let’s get deeper into this topic. Autosuggestion is like intention; it is a widely used psychological technique with which we are all familiar. Dr. Patricia Garfield first introduced it to the public in her book on dream work back in 1974. Stephen LaBerge calls it a “laid-back” technique because it is so simple and easy. The Autosuggestion Technique removes all pressure to succeed. The key to using autosuggestion is to feel confidence in yourself. So relax, smile, think good thoughts about yourself and follow the steps below. Use this technique whenever you like when you wish to have LDs, but feel you cannot give any extra mental effort.
Exercise: Autosuggestion Technique
1. Autosuggestion
A. Establish a feeling of self-confidence. Think of something you are really good at. It could be anything, significant or trivial, such as writing poems, designing greenhouses, cooking healing meals, growing flowers and herbs, mountain climbing, computer games, fixing things, or throwing wads of paper into the wastebasket across the room. Remember how you feel when you are doing this thing you are really good at. What is it like to feel completely sure of yourself, confident of your ability? When you’ve got that feeling, you are ready to go on to the next step, which may be done either at bedtime or during an awakening in the night.
B. Relax and create a feeling of confidence in yourself.
When you are in bed, release your tensions by doing a relaxation exercise. Then, bring to mind the feeling of being fully confident in your ability that you discovered in step A. above. Immerse yourself in feeling good about your competence. Hold that feeling; and go on to step C.
C. Suggest to yourself that you will have LDs.
While maintaining the feeling of calm confidence you called up in the last step, tell yourself “I can have LDs, and I look forward to my next one.” Don’t assert that it must happen tonight or at any specific times. Be happily expectant of having a LD and picture yourself, in your next LD, engaged in enjoyable and inspiring activity. Create a feeling of certainty that you will have LDs in the future.
2. Practice for Counting into a LD
Relax. Lie down or sit comfortably. If you are sleepy, sit rather than lie down. Use a relaxation exercise, such as the Ball of Light or the 61-Points to release all physical tension.
A. Breathe.
Do the Pot-Shaped Breath Exercise Continue with it for a few minutes, until your Pot-Shaped breathing is smooth, regular and automatic.
B. Count Your Breaths.
As you inhale, think “One” and build up a mental picture of the number 1 floating before your mind’s eye. Make it as solid an image as you can. C. Exhale.
As you exhale, focus on the number 1 you have imagined and think of nothing else.
D. Inhalation.
On your next inhalation, release the number 1, let it disappear, then think “Two” and build up an image of the number 2.
E. Exhalation.
As you exhale, focus on the number 2 in your mind and think of nothing else. Think only of it.
F. Continue this process.
Continue up through the number 9 and then start again with the number 1. Repeat until you are satisfied with your progress.
G. Reject Distractions.
Other thoughts are likely to pop into your mind, asking for your attention. Don’t give in to them. Ignore the other thoughts. Do this passively; that is, don’t get upset about them or try to forcefully eject them from your mind. Just acknowledge, “that’s a thought”, then ignore it and return to your counting/visualization.
H. Continue.
Keep up the concentration as long as it feels comfortable or until you need or want to stop. Each day you should try to extend the time you spend in these concentration exercises, until you can easily do any of them for 20 minutes.
We all have heard the expression “Is this a dream?” and “Are we asleep really dreaming this reality?” In many cultures, religions and philosophies have the concept that we are dreaming and that everyday life is a dream. In the next two chapters, I’ll provide possible answers to the question “Is this a dream?” by describing LD.
LD is the state of being aware of the dream at the time of the dream. Most people believe LD is controlled dreaming. However, the term lucid means awareness, not control. LD is the state of knowing that we are dreaming during the dream. If you were dreaming that you were reading this book, and all of a sudden you realized that you were actually lying in your bed dreaming, this realization is the moment when the dream becomes lucid, the moment when you become aware of the state of consciousness you are in. This awareness is not control because there can be dream control without lucidity, and there can be lucidity without control. The goal of the person who practices LD is to become lucid and have control at the same time. A person can have what is known as a semi-LD, then a full LD, to the point of having what is called a high LD.
The semi-LD is the state of being in the dream and knowing that you are dreaming, but having no control. This state is very similar to being a puppet in a play. The environment is controlling what is happening. The LD is the state where, in the dream, you know that you are dreaming and you have some sort of control, from the ability to be in control of your body, to being able to direct the whereabouts in the dream environment (such as deciding to walk across the street in the dream), to having enough control over the dream environment itself and having the choice to manipulate or move within the dream environment (a high LD). A high LD is where you have the control mentioned above, and can carry out some sort of spectacular intention, such as a healing for another or meeting a teacher; some type of event that would have a higher purpose or be considered to be amazing in the waking state.
The following LD is an example of a theme taken from my waking life, which some writers call “day residue”, taken from my book My Adventures in LD. I had decided to look at a drawing of patterns and shapes I encountered in a past LD. I stared at the drawing and then closed my eyes and visualized it, doing this three or four times. This is a technique for re-experiencing visual imagery that I developed. I think of it as taking a polaroid shot of an image, then being able to visualize it very clearly later. The eye closing is like the blinking of a camera shutter. I had the image in my head and could see it well. I started to count: “One, I’m dreaming; two, I’m dreaming,” up to one hundred, as Stephen LaBerge suggests. Then I started over. Below is a description of the semi-LD: “Fighting”
As I’m counting, I can feel myself being pulled into the image. The next thing I know, I’m driving a car to a concert. My brother, Orion, and some friends are with me. When we get there, we go inside and find our seats. I look up and see the person who robbed my house about two years ago in my waking life. When I see him, I start to walk away to get a drink of soda. On my way back, I bump into him and his friends. He orders a Chinese guy to fight me, but I just keep walking. I get back to our seats and my friend is very mad. The next thing I know, I’m fighting the man who robbed my house. I beat him up and all of his friends, too. But when I get back to the seats the concert is over and everyone has left, including all of my friends. All of a sudden, I’m at my Ward house, telling my Dad about the concert and how I had kicked these people’s ass. Then it dawns on me – how did I get home? That’s when I realize that I’m dreaming. I say to myself, “I’m dreaming!” At this moment, Orion and all my friends walk in the door. I realize that I have the keys to the car, so I look down in my fanny-pack and the keys are still in there. This surprises me so much I wake up.
The next dream describes my use of the technique of spinning to bring back lucidity in the dream state:
“Patterns”
This time I’m flying about my house in Ward, when I realize I’m dreaming! I fly straight up past the clouds, trying to get to Space. Suddenly I hit a wall of patterns. There is a box with different shapes and patterns inside of it. I go inside that box. When I’m inside, the shapes and patterns of that box become the background, and I discover that there is a box with a smaller box inside of it. Once I’m inside the smaller box, the patterns in the smaller box becomes the background, and there is a box with a smaller box inside containing a circle of checkers. When I’m inside that, the checkers become the background, and there is a box with a smaller box inside which contains a circle or a spiral of checkers going inward. When I finally enter the spiral of checkers, I wake up.
The next dream describes using intention to enter another LD, and healing myself in it. I had repeated the neumonic: “ I will dream that I’m flying, and when I am, I’ll recognize that I’m dreaming and I’ll surround myself with healing energy from my LD.” This is an example of a high LD, and of how intention is important for control: “Healing Myself”
I’m talking to my Dad as we walk toward some tall buildings. I know I’m dreaming and I begin to fly. Now I’m on top of a building with some friends. I glance over two buildings away from me and see my Dad standing there. It seems that he wants to come over to me, but he can’t fly. I think of bridges connecting the buildings and instantly they appear. He begins walking towards me. Then I realize my intention of healing myself, thinking I can’t do it with these people disturbing me. So I fly down to some trees and sit in a cross-legged position. I create a ball of yellow energy between my hands. I instantly surround myself with this yellow energy. I can feel its power. It becomes so strong that I wake up.
As I awakened from this dream, I was amazed to find that my cold was gone and I felt great! This demonstrates that having an intention is very important and can help us accomplish what we wish to do. Having a clear intention is especially important in a healing situation because the power of the dream state is most amazing, and without an intention we cannot make use of that power.
Two important factors need to be considered here. One is the lucidity, or awareness of the state of consciousness, within a dream state. The second is the control that we have in this state of consciousness, whether it is a little or a lot. Let’s first consider control, because we can have one without the other. In the semi-LD, there is either no control, or just enough control to have the choice of thoughts. The reason it is called semi-lucid is because we just barely, a little bit in the back of our mind, know that we’re dreaming. In this case, there is only a little bit of awareness of the dream state, giving little or no control over the dream environment. The amount of awareness we have that we are dreaming (the environment) is what gives us the control. Therefore, the more aware we are that we are dreaming, the more control we have within the dream, until practice eventually results in LD becoming fully lucid, which is being fully aware that we are in our beds dreaming. This full awareness gives us the control. The amount of awareness of the environment that we are in will determine the amount of control that can be exerted. This brings us to the high LD, where there is some intention applied to the awareness in the dream to carry out a spectacular task.
To summarize, we can say that: (1) lucidity is awareness; (2) awareness gives us control; and (3) intention gives us the ability to apply the control. LD is a perfect metaphor for conscious manifestation. To understand the relationship of conscious manifestation to LD, we must look at the environments where the awareness is, and compare them to see what they have in common and how they are connected to each other. As mentioned before, one way to attain awareness of what is within our character is through dreams. We have also explained what character and the subconscious mind are, and have discussed the assumptions that the subconscious, or dream body, is made up of both vibrational organs and a substance that is moving faster than the speed of light, such as electromagnetic energy. We have concluded that the electromagnetic world is the dream world. Therefore, by being able to use what comes from our dreams to find what is within our character, we should also be able to assume that the dream world is the place where the dream body is present and that the dream world is the environment that is not seen by the human eye in the waking state that we have called the electromagnetic environment.
By taking Albert Einstein’s relativity theory and relating it to LD, we can say that the world of LD is a world moving faster than the speed of light. If you are a LDer, you know that when you are conscious within the dream, resulting in a LD: (1) time means nothing; (2) distance is not a factor; and (3) you lose gravity.
The world of the LD is in fact a plane of existence or environment that is moving faster than the speed of light. By being able to use what comes from dreams as a method to find out what is within our character, and by knowing that the electromagnetic environment is moving faster than the speed of light, then it should be clear that the dream world is the same environment as the electromagnetic environment. Being able to become aware of this environment by LD is one of the best ways to personally experience instant conscious manifestation. Therefore, the dream world is the astral plane and the dream body is the astral body.
In LD, because this environment moves faster than the speed of light, and also loses gravity, time and distance, we can create instantly through the use of directed thinking and induced emotion through intention. Because there is no gravity to slow down the electromagnetic energy being transmitted by the body, like on the physical plane, there is no friction to slow the energy down, which creates a seemingly instant manifestation effect. Therefore, it is easy to see why it takes a tremendous amount of energy to break the friction barrier created by gravity on the physical plane to instantly create things such as the materialization of a body by Jesus.
The environment of LD and the one that we are in right now are not only present at all times, but they also have a direct correlation to the environment that we have defined as the electromagnetic environment, because they are one and the same environments, even though we don’t see things created by our thoughts and emotions because they are being created in the dream world. Because of gravity, these things aren’t manifested instantly on the physical plane until they have enough energy to break the barrier of friction created by gravity. Until the vibrations of the dream body have a sufficient amount of energy built up, they cannot create or manifest an event on the physical plane. This is because of the different velocities of the different planes, as well as the concept that gravity is, on the physical plane, creating friction.
The techniques for having control and becoming aware in a LD are exactly the same as those used in this book for conscious manifestation. Dream recall is the same as becoming aware that electromagnetic weather and environment exist. As we develop dream recall, practicing LD is the same as becoming aware that we are living in two separate environments.

The Brotherhood of Light lessons can be viewed here in two ways. They can be viewed in the Numerical Order in which the lessons were written (1-210), and in most cases the numerical order is chronological also, but not always because of the revisions at a later time.
Or they can be viewed in the traditional Book/Chapter Order which consists of 21 books.
In 1915, when the first lesson was written, it started as a monograph, 8 1/2 by 11, of ten pages, bound at the top, with an aqua-blue stapled cover. Each monograph had the official seal on the front cover. As the monographs were completed, Mr. Benjamine started expanding his series and listening to what students wanted and needed. It was both a learning experience for him as well as his students, and he accommodated everyone whenever he could so they could master the Ancient Wisdom.
Originally, a student could buy any manuscript in any order, and study the courses in any order, but as time progressed, Mr. Benjamine decided to issue a diploma of completion, and arranged a curriculum in the best order that he could. This was the beginning of the Book/Chapters Order, which was to be issued in 21 volumes, in which he succeeded.
Modern day students of Hermetics study the courses in both orders. Some prefer one system over the other, so the webmaster has decided to make both available.
The Not Sold Award Manuscripts
The Award Manuscripts at the end of the Numerical Order was an afterthought. Some of the earlier manuscripts were really included in the lessons and sold as lessons also, before the Not Sold Award concept was employed. However, Mr. Benjamine never obtained copyright protection on any of these award manuscripts, and they are in public domain, according to the 1908 copyright law, which was in effect when he issued most of his work, and same law was in effect when he died in 1951.
Some of the titles and ideas in the manuscripts, have been developed by modern authors and entire books are now available with expanded themes. These manuscripts were informative in their day, but now students want so much more than is available in this outdated series, and prefer to buy books on the whole subject.

A step by step program for learning LD the art of Dream Yoga. Is this a dream, one might ask? Am I awake? Each night as we fall asleep a remarkable transition between our waking and dream worlds takes place. This experience, which we take for granted, holds the key to the doorway of lucidity.
LD is a state of awareness in which we are conscious that we are dreaming while in a Dream State. Get ready for a journey into a world where time stands still, gravity has no effect and distance is perceived far differently than what we usually identify as normal; a world where our dreams really can come true.
Jerimiah presents a step by step program for entering the dream world through a process of meditation known as Dream Yoga, or wake induced LD. A new type of awareness will be presented which combines the world of dreams with waking reality, creating a powerful tool that can assist anyone in achieving their dreams. We will focus on how to use the power of dreams as a tool for relieving depression, maintaining emotional balance, improving health and gaining greater fulfillment in life.
The LD experience can help us understand the relationship between thought, emotion, and the negative or positive events we attract into our waking life. We will explore how the central nervous system can generate the necessary energy to travel between different dimensions of reality. The very natural and mundane experience of falling asleep holds the key to this doorway.
Goal: To discover that LD is a natural element of human consciousness.
Learning Objectives:
Explore the connection between dreams and the waking life
Discover the true power of the human conscienceness as multi dimensional beings.
Understand the latent powers that we all have and use every day to create our own reality

change the major events of one’s life that can cause misfortunate and illness.
This is the “Freewill” that you have to become master of direct
thought and induced emotion. Conscious Manifestation is taking your weakneses
and transforming them into strengths by changing one thing that is yours to
control….your character. The journey to Spiritual Awareness begins with building
a foundation using the concepts available to you in understanding how you
might perceive reality. An awareness of your self-character can be given to
you if you choose. This awareness is the foundation of your journey of Spiritual
Manifestation.
