The Waking Dream - Exploring Altered States of Consciousness, Part II

The Waking Dream

Part Ii in monthly webinar series

This is the 2nd Webinar in the webinar series on ‘The Waking Dream’.

Dreams are a portal to higher realms and deeper states of consciousness. Mystical dreaming is an opportunity for people to access supreme intelligence, intuition, empathy and more authority over their lives.

Time: 9am PST (Los Angeles); 10am Mountain Time (Boulder); 12pm EST (New York); 5pm UK (London); 7pm South Africa (Cape Town). If you can’t make it live, don’t worry, you will receive the recording afterwards.

This series of 3 monthly webinars will focus on waking Dreams, our ability to receive visions while awake. Ancient cultures like the sangoma peoples of Southern Africa use percussion, rhythm, dancing, plant medicine and chanting to receive powerful visions in the waking state.

This session will involve:

  • A discussion on Dreams or visions in the waking state. What do they look like? How can we tell vision from imagination?

  • What is an altered state and how do we know when we are accessing it?

  • Simple practices to activate altered states of consciousness focusing on drumming, body percussion, chanting and simple trance rhythms.

It is well known among shamanic circles that if you want to change your dreams at night then you need to activate your waking dreams. This involves doing some ritual practices during the day. Over time this will have a profound effect on the night time dreams.

The webinar will be a mix of teaching, group participation and guided meditations. Please feel free to bring your dreams along. I will stop the recording when people share their dreams.

Each Webinar runs as a ceremony with a guided meditation, some chanting and an invocation in isiXhosa to lift the energy. They last 75 mins.

John will give a 20 min talk to introduce this month’s theme. People can then ask questions.

NB: These Monthly Webinars are part of a monthly subscription of $33 USD, cancel anytime.
