I will be taking part in a panel discussion called “Lucid Dreaming for the Great Synthesis“ at 2PM Saturday, April 8th 2023 in The Summit at The Lucidity Festival in California. Other Lucid dreamers will be on the panel such as: Jonah Haas, Sanjeev (Sanj ‘Binaural Dreams’), Erik Casano and Gwendolyn Alley. The workshop space will be set up to accommodate approximately 100 audience members. I have taken part in a lucid dream workshops and discussion panels in previous years at Lucidity Festival which have all been enriching and uplifting experiences. 

I was very active with lucid dreaming 10 years ago when the Lucidity Festival first started. It was extremely empowering in my personal development. My life’s purpose at that time was to spread knowledge and wisdom about lucid dreaming to the world. This culminated in this website ( youCanLucidDream.com ), a documentary, live workshops and making various content for lucid dreaming.

I no longer lucid dream to the same level as I did back then. I have lost a lot of my abilities and often fall back into dream dilemmas I’ve already figured out in past dreams. Recently I average 1 spontaneous lucid dream a year, and it’s nowhere near as vivid and profound as the dreams I had in my 20s and 30s.

Despite my lack of lucid dreams in the recent years, I am still dedicated to spreading knowledge and wisdom about Lucid Dreaming and how to achieve that miraculous state. The Lucidity Festival is an ideal place to do that! In previous years I have lead workshop on lucid dreaming such as:

• The 7 thing you need to know to have a lucid dream
   
• Advanced Lucid Dreaming

The 2 lucid dream workshops are talked about in this blog post I wrote on my lucid dreaming website over 7 years ago. It includes video from my “Advanced Lucid Dream” workshop from Lucidity Festival 2013:
You Can Lucid Dream – Lucidity Festival 2015 – Kindred Quest:

The Lucidity Festival is an annual art and music festival that happens every year in April at the live oak camp ground Just East of Santa Barbara California. It is a transformational festival that promotions consciousness, self expression, spirituality, and joy.

This will be the 5th year it has taken place, and the 5th time Ill be presenting lucid dreaming information in a workshop. This year the Lucid Dreaming Workshop has expanded into a 4 day immersive educational experience before the festival begins. It’s called: The Way of Lucid Dreaming & Lucid Living. It will be hosted by Thomas Peisel and Laurel Lyons. I will be a guest presenter and generally help with the organization and setup. We are make arrangements to make it an incredible exploration of the lucid dream state. If you’ve been wanting to connect deeper with your dreams and other dreamers at an amazingly inspiring and transcendent environment, then now is the time to take that step.

Lucid dreaming is just 1 of 5 courses that are available. Here is a video introducing the Lucidity Festival Course Week:

The lucidity festival is a fun and vibrant way to explore and spread lucidity in your waking life, as well as in the dream state. It is an open source festival so contribute and take part in any way you feel called. All dreamers, seekers, sages, and conscious beings are welcome to experience it for yourself.

This is a documentary by Emilie Sciarli of Permanent Crash. It features many experience lucid dreamers, mostly from San Diego. It also features Charlie Morley from London, as well as information about the iWinks Aurora being developed in San Diego.

Many of the interviews are with members of the San Diego Lucid Dreamers, which Emilie took when she visited from France.

This filmmaker Brendon Wolf-Shield Culliton attended Lucidity Festival 2014 and made a sequel to the movie he made last year. It is called Journey to Lucidity 2: Tree of Guardians. In this movie he returns to the Lucidity Festival dream with more awareness, and seeks out wisdom from guardians and dreamers. He asks people what it is we should remember. One of the things he filmed was the Lucid Dream Discussion Panel I was in. He uses a few clips of me and other lucid dreamers in the movie.

Here is a pictures from on of my presentation at Lucidity Festival 2013. I am demonstrating the hand rubbing lucid dream stabilization technique:

Author Robert Waggoner and philosopher Rory Mac Sweeney discuss the nature of reality, with a penetrating view into the the elusive state of non dualistic awareness. Both offer insight into the world of lucid dreaming and ponder the notion of being able to connect with other people in the dream world.

Thomas Peisel’s book Oneironautics: A Field Guide to Lucid Dreaming teaches its readers not only how to remember their dreams, but how to become lucid within them. Inspired by the idea that lucid dreaming isn’t about sleeping but about waking up, Thomas shows us that when we begin to consciously create out own dreams, we naturally understand how we can consciously create our waking lives as well.

Thomas is a graduate of the Tisch School of the Arts at New York University. His website, dreamlabs.io, aims to explore the potential of dreaming through interactive social experiments and educational videos.

Conscious Dreaming follows the journey of three beginners as they immerse themselves in the world of lucid dreaming. With the help of experts, they will use a unique method designed to help achieve lucidity, such as practices done in the waking state, meditation, and mobile apps. (more…)
