Lucid Dreamwork Course 2026

Ryan Hurd has announced his annual lucid dreamwork course for 2026. Here's what he has to say about it: 

"Lucid Dreamwork is my annual live training on working with the insights of lucid dreams. This is not a course on lucid dreaming induction but rather focused on how to navigate the lucid dream and work with transformations of imagery and self.

"If you are frustrated by your lucid dreams because they are too short, too confusing, or too emotionally imbalanced: this course is for you. If you have a lucid goal but keep running into the same conflicts or limitations -- I built this framework for you.

"With the metaphor of alchemy, we will explore solar and lunar consciousness in lucid dreams and learn how to dance with these powerful ways of knowing in the dream... and in waking life.

"In particular we will be learning how our own choices in dreams (lucid and non-lucid dreams) create openings for uncanny knowledge and extraordinary experience.

"My approach

"I like to keep my classes small because my approach is small group coaching - which always leads to better transformations than gigantic lecture halls. I keep my courses under 50 enrolled students/members -- currently there are 25 spots left. With a small cohort, I am able to provide individual feedback -- not only in the live sessions, but also in the forum, and via email if needed. That's my promise to you: you WILL be supported.

"Your Coupon

How to Fly in a Lucid Dream

Learn how to fly in a lucid dream over on Ryan Hurd's newsletter entitled, Dream Studies. Here is the first paragraph of his newsletter:

"According to the peer-reviewed research, flying in a lucid dream is the most popular thing folks want to do, even more than having dream sex.[1] It’s certainly true for me. But learning to fly is not as simple as you would think. There’s a delicate balancing act that we need to learn. That’s what this piece is about: the hidden initiation that waits for us when we lift our dream bodies off the ground."

Connected Dream Journal

Ryan Hurd has now developed a connected dream journal he call the Elsewhere Dream Journal. Here is just a bit of what he has to say about it:

What is a connected dream journal?

The connected dream journal system lessens the friction of reporting, archiving, and analyzing on your dreams like never before.

It solves a problem I have personally had for years – how to get all the cognitive and mindfulness benefits of dream journaling by hand, and also be able to easily digitize the dreams for thematic analysis after the fact. If you’re like me, you might dozens of old notebooks of dreams, and no way to track changes in your dreams over time. Or, you've got a massive word doc with hundreds of dreams, but have missed out on immediacy of recording them and sketching the powerful visual images.

Now you can do both!

With the Elsewhere Dream Journal, you can record your dreams old school style—pen and paper— then scan the page using the Elsewhere app on your smartphone or tablet. The app digitizes your handwriting (it’s remarkably good at this: I have to correct only a few words each time) and then you can watch your dreams come alive with analysis, image generation, and symbol mapping.

Power of On-Line Dream Sharing Article

This week a new article by Ryan Hurd and colleagues was published in the International Journal of Dream Research. In this article, they lay out a proposed method of online dreamwork for clinicians. 

This article closes a gap in the literature, showcasing the safety and effectiveness for asynchronous online dreamwork. That’s a mouthful – the term means dream sharing over secure forums, email or patient portals rather than face-to-face (synchronous) dream sharing.

Here is a link to the article: https://journals.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/index.php/IJoDR/article/view/110724/111468?ck_subscriber_id=668717532

Lucid Immersion Guidebook: A Holistic Blueprint For Lucid Dreaming

Now here's a book you don't see every day: Lucid Immersion Guidebook: A Holistic Blueprint for Lucid Dreaming by Ryan Hurd. This book is different than any book I've every read in regards to lucid dreaming. It's also really tough for me to sum up. Allow me to steal a few words from Ryan's book to perhaps explain it. 

From the Introduction: "It came to me in a flash: the secret to lucid dreaming is not about finding the miracle technique, it's about saturation: a short period of time marked by waking practices that together encourage lucidity by addressing the entire mind-body ecology. This is how Lucid Immersion was born. Just like the best way to learn a new language, lucidity comes more quickly when you are immersed in the conditions that push you past your comfort zone and that everyday haze of habit and expectation." 

Ryan shares his own personal travels and experiences in Nicaragua, investigating pre-Columbian rock art. Recording the delicate and endangered art on the volcanic island of Ometepe. Fascinating book and experiences Ryan shares. Again, this is unlike any other book on lucid dreaming (or anything else!) that I've ever read. It's most certainly worth the read! Enjoy!

The Dream Portal

Here is a great site if you are looking to connect with fellow lucid dreamers! Entitled The Dream Portal created by master lucid dreamer Ryan Hurd. There seems to be a ton of material in regards to lucid dreaming on this site. Only thing I don't care for is the price. IMHO, communities like this should be free. There are a ton of free pages and groups on social media such as Facebook which are free. Why not this one? Sure, you may have more 'in-depth information' or whatever on a paid site, but one could easily put this in a lucid dreaming Facebook group. Again, just my opinion. And don't allow my opinion in regards to $$ draw you away from this site. It's a dandy!
