**Experience dreamwork as a personal transformation tool & surround yourself with a community of other avid dreamers.**

**In a hurry? Here's what you need to know:**

This is a drop-in, beginners dream group session, prior to the start of our 10-week dream group beginning February 2.

We are a group of professionals of diverse ages, current and retired, who study and explore dreams and visionary experiences together. All are welcome.

The group is organized by Benji Whitehurst, MA, a transpersonal psychologist who has been teaching Alchemical Dreamwork for over 10 years.

You can also pay in 10-week increments (see below).

**More Details:**

Our approach is *alchemical*. This means we do more than simply interpret our dreams. We are interested in personal transformation through dreamwork, including dream interpretation, lucid dreaming, out-of-body experiences, and other forms of using dreams to access mystical experiences and personal growth.

Newcomers welcome! We provide training in dreamwork essentials, including how to remember your dreams.

In each session, \~30 minutes will be for discussion, leading into **sharing dreams** and other nighttime experiences together. Group members are encouraged to build community by occasionally eating lunch together.

The group is hosted by Benji Whitehurst, MA, Founder of the Alchemical Dreamers' Guild, and Regional Representative of the International Association for the Study of Dreams. Benji trained in dreamwork at Naropa University and with the author Rev. Jeremy Taylor, and has been teaching dreamwork for 10 years.

**Logistics:**

We'll will have a first intro session on **Friday, 1/19.** The group will then meet for **10 weeks beginning two weeks later on 2/2.**

The group is ongoing, with entry and exit cycles every 10 weeks. It is okay to miss up to 2 sessions per 10 weeks. We occasionally take a 2-week break.

We usually meet at a beautiful home in North Durham that you will thoroughly enjoy! We will send the address to you after registration.

Notes & Disclaimers: This event does not involve psychotherapy, medical treatment, or any other form of advice. Instead, the intent of this dreamwork training is educational and spiritual. Be aware dreamwork can be emotionally intense for some people–check with your doctor or therapist before participating, and be 100% self-responsible for your own physical, emotional and spiritual well-being throughout your time in the group. In practice, this course involves meditating, sharing dreams and visions, and receiving feedback from others. May this event be in service of the well-being of our community. This event is a professional offering organized through the Alchemical Dreamers’ Guild, a branch of Navigate Change, LLC. Image: Midjourney AI by Benjamin Whitehurst
