The Dream World

What if your dreams could become a playground for healing, transformation, and soul growth?

In this powerful episode of The Dream World Podcast, Amina sits down with filmmaker, dream educator, and lifelong lucid dreamer Nisha Burton to explore how lucid dreaming can help us face fear, satisfy deep desires, and even prepare for death. Raised in a lineage of dreamers, Nisha shares how her mother nurtured her dream life from childhood and how that led her into profound spiritual explorations through lucid states.

From flying through the cosmos and indulging in dream pastries (hello, gluten-free croissants!) to entering the clear light of mind inspired by Tibetan dream yoga, Nisha’s stories will inspire you to embrace dreaming as a sacred part of life. The two also dive into dream mirrors, the mysterious "dream police," dream portals, shared dreaming, and learning to trust your unique dream symbolism.

Whether you're deep into your practice or just starting out, this episode will remind you: your dreams are valid, powerful, and deeply personal. 🌌

In this podcast episode, Meriana, an IFS therapist, discusses her lifelong passion for lucid dreaming, which began in childhood. She shares insights into the etheric body, dream energy, and the common experiences of lucidity in dreams. We both recollect vivid dream experiences, including interactions with spirit guides and mythical beings, and reflect on the profound lessons these dreams impart. The discussion touches on the integration of psychedelic experiences, the importance of asking for divine help, and how dreams can serve as portals to different dimensions, aiding in spiritual growth and self-understanding.

The legendary ‪Charlie Morley‬ is talking about his IASD presentation in June 2025. In his keynote talk, Charlie will be discussing the remarkable results of two recent scientific studies that used lucid dreaming as a treatment for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The results of the studies were quite remarkable, with the average PTSD score dropping so far below the medical threshold that dozens of participants were no longer classified as having PTSD by the end of the one-week study.
He will also discuss the initial refusal to publish from many journals, the eventual publication in the peer-reviewed journal Traumatology, and his controversial TED talk on the subject that was blacklisted over disputed data. So, join us at this exciting talk to explore how lucid dreaming may well be one of the most promising interventions for trauma currently available.

IASD  provides a Dreamwork Ethics Statement
as a guideline for anyone who wants to discuss dreams responsibly.
Developed in 1997, it aims to honor the dream as well as the dreamer, and is used as the gold standard in dreamwork worldwide. Read the full ethics statement on asdreams.org/ethics-and-confidentiality

Here are 7 key takeaways:

1. Respect the Dreamer’s Integrity
Ethical dreamwork helps the dreamer work with his/her own dream images, feelings, and associations,
but doesn’t tell anyone what their dream means.
The dreamer is the decision maker when it comes to the meaning of their own dream. Listen, ask, reflect, and invite the dreamer to
draw their own conclusions.

2. Create a Safe Space
The dreamer should be forewarned that unexpected issues or emotions may arise in the course of the dreamwork.It might start as ‘just a dream’, but may end in an unexpected conversation. Even if it’s a short chat, make sure you
can’t be overheard or interrupted easily.

3. Keep the Privacy
Information and mutual agreement about the degree of privacy and confidentiality are essential ingredients in creating a safe atmosphere for dream sharing.
Assure the dreamer that you will keep what’s discussed to yourself, unless they tell you otherwise.

4. Let the Dreamer Lead
A dreamer’s decision to share or discontinue sharing a dream should always be respected and honored.Be mindful of body language, hesitations, or a
repeated ‘I don’t know’, as signs that this
conversation might be at it’s end.

5. Consider Multiple Options
Every dream may have multiple meanings. There are social, cultural, and transpersonal aspects to dream experience. Different techniques may be reasonably employed to touch these multiple layers of significance.
Instead of looking for one “true” meaning, help a dreamer explore different associations and ideas.

6. The Limits Of Dreamwork
Be mindful of the limits of the conversation.
Dreamwork outside a clinical setting is not a substitute for psychotherapy, or other professional treatment, and should not be used as such. If the conversation requires it, remind the dreamer with empathy that this isn’t therapy, and maybe get a nice cup of tea together.

7. Tradition Matters
IASD recognizes and respects that there are many valid and time-honored dreamwork traditions. We invite and welcome the participation of dreamers from all cultures. Invite the dreamer to educate you on their views on dreams.

Dana Kippel is best known for her groundbreaking theories on plasma and its connections to consciousness and metaphysics.

We also explore how these concepts relate to dreams, explaining the potential relationship between lucid dreaming, plasma, and consciousness.
