ART OF DREAMING ONE-ON-ONE SESSIONS
WHAT IS AN ART OF DREAMING SESSION?
An Art of Dreaming Session is a compassionate and courageous space to creatively explore myriad meanings and wisdoms of your night-time dreams.
“All dreams come in the service of health and wholeness.” Jeremy Taylor
Whether it’s a “nightmare”, a strange, weird, blissful, magic, and/or disturbing dream, it is welcome. Whether the dream came last night or years ago, came once or recurs over and over, it is welcome. Even if it’s a dream that you can’t remember, it is welcome and so are you.
WHAT CAN A SESSION DO FOR YOU?
A session with Sasha can empower you to gently and profoundly uncover the deep wisdom that dreams bring to all aspects of your life.
It can inspire change for your life in expansive and comprehensive ways.
Engaging with dreams in these sessions brings clarity, joy and great relief from fears and perceptions of “separateness.” It is vitally important in knowing the truth of wholeness.
If you want to feel at peace, engage creatively with life, and be of joyful service to the world, connecting with dreams is key. And one-on-one dream sessions are deeply nourishing to this connection.
HOW DOES AN ART OF DREAMING SESSION WORK?
We meet on-line via zoom or in-person as proximity allows.
You write down one or two dreams and bring these accounts to your session. If you don’t have a dream to share and your intention is to remember your dreams better, we will have An Invitation to Dreams session, where Sasha will teach you simple and profound techniques to connect with and better remember your dreams.
In the sessions, as well as a gentle inquiry into the dream, usually some kind of art-play will be engaged as a tool to facilitate understanding and improving connection with dreams. As an artist, art is Sasha’s passion and dreams deeply inspire her work. In these sessions, engaging the hands and heart with art-making is about connecting with dreams and your particular passions. Specific artistic training and expensive art materials are not required. It is about art-play and creative exploratory expression of the dreaming experience.
By the end of the session, most participants have an “aha” moment with at least one specific insight the dream has for their life. And if not during the session, the “aha” comes within the days following the session.
WHY CHOOSE ME AS A DREAMING GUIDE FOR YOU?
- PASSION: my calling to dreams and dream guiding runs deep. I have always been curious and felt connected with dreams. Vivid dreams filled my childhood. Even though it was a long time before I met anyone who knew and told me that dreams were important, I always knew intrinsically that they were.
- EMPOWERING THE DREAMER: I will teach you how to gently release thoughts and experiences in the way of dream-connecting. Over the years in my own personal practice and also in my ongoing studies, I have learned how to engage with dreams in simple and profound ways. And I can teach you these methods so that you can better understand the language of your dreams.
- EXPERIENCE: I have been a diligent dream-journal keeper for over 20 years. In the last 4 years, I have deepened this practice. During this four year period, noticing how people naturally gravitate to me to talk about dreams with a longing to know them better, I have engaged with dream circles as well as one-on-one sessions as both a participant and guide.
- DEEP STUDY: I have been fortunate to study and work with dreamwork mentors and teachers including Mary Jo Heyen, Kezia Vida and Leilani Wong Navar. Dream-working courses with Toko-Pa Turner and Dr. Stanley Krippner have been pivotal. I continue to read discerningly on the topic of dreams. I am inspired by many authors and teachers including Rodger Kamenetz, Jeremy Taylor, Robert Moss and Dr. Carl Jung. I am currently enjoying a course of study with Andrew Holocek on dreaming and dying, centred around the venerable text known as The Tibetan Book of the Dead. Above all, the imaginal realm of dreams itself continues to be the source of the deepest teachings for me.
- PRESENCE: I have been doing “the work” – becoming aware, clearing my unconscious and engaging in daily meditation for the last 15 years. It is my joy to be present to you and your dreams in a supportive, conscious and loving-kind way.
- CLARITY: Most participants report that after their sessions with me, dreams come in with much more clarity and detail. Those that rarely remember their dreams, have told me that after our sessions their recall was vastly improved. See below for more about peoples’ experiences.
WHAT PARTICIPANTS SAY ABOUT THEIR EXPERIENCE IN ART OF DREAMING SESSIONS
“I thoroughly enjoyed my dream session with Sasha. With her intuitive guidance I was able to take a deep dive into the landscape of my dream, bringing to life its symbology and messages. She helped me connect with and understand each part of the dream from a different perspective, which was incredibly enlightening and opened up a whole new enquiry about what I initially thought it meant…(I) highly recommend working with Sasha to investigate (your dreams)!”
Andrea Baines – United Kingdom @andrea_sacredsoundjourneys
“Sasha’s ability to guide through the dream-scapes and explore meaningful symbolism is very profound. I felt completely held by her kindness and gentle intuition. She’s an absolutely beautiful person to work with and I highly recommend her skills in liminal spaces.”
Rachelle Hicks – Ireland – @rachellehicksastrologia
“I was astounded by the incredible insights that were gently nudged out of me in our session. It was so gentle yet very profound at the same time!”
Patricia Parashakti Lohan – Greece – @powerhousefengshui
“Well that worked straight away Sasha…lots of vivid dreams last night.”
Shane O’Sullivan – Ireland
