Saka Dawa Dharma Teachings

Summer Solstice Dream Retreat
Retreat
The longest day of the year has long been considered a threshold between ordinary and extraordinary states of consciousness. This three-day virtual retreat uses the energy of the solstice as a gateway into deep dream yoga practice — exploring light, transformation, and the nature of waking and sleeping awareness.

30-Day Dream Journal Challenge
Challenge
Consistent dream recall is the single most important foundation for lucid dreaming and dream yoga. Over 30 days, commit to recording your dreams each morning and completing short reflection meditations. Build the habit, deepen your inner life, and watch your recall — and your lucidity — grow.
Chökhor Düchen — Turning the Wheel
Festival
Celebrate the first teaching of the Buddha — the turning of the Wheel of Dharma at Varanasi. This merit-multiplying day marks the moment wisdom entered the world. Engage in gratitude practices, dedicate merit, and explore dream yoga practices that invite insight and guidance from the wisdom mind.
Autumn Lucidity Challenge
Challenge
As the year turns inward and nights grow longer, autumn is nature's invitation to deepen dream practice. Over 21 days, combine daily meditation with intentional lucidity techniques — reality checks, dream signs journalling, and MILD practice — to break through into your first (or next) lucid dream.
Dream Yoga Foundations Workshop
Workshop
A structured four-session workshop for practitioners who want to go beyond basic mindfulness into the authentic Tibetan Dream Yoga tradition. Sessions cover the five root practices of dream yoga, the night-time bardos, how to work with the guru yoga of the sleep state, and practical integration with daily meditation. Suitable for those with some meditation experience.
Mindful Slumber Community Anniversary
Celebration
Celebrate one year of dreaming together! Join the Mindful Slumber community for a special day of gratitude, shared dream stories, milestone recognition, and a dedicated group meditation. This is a moment to honour how far you have come — and to set intentions for the year of practice ahead.
Teachings on the Bardos of Sleep and Dream
Teaching
A five-session teaching series exploring the Tibetan understanding of the bardos — the transitional states that occur between waking and sleep, within the dream, and at the threshold of deep dreamless sleep. Drawing from the Bardo Thodol (Tibetan Book of the Dead) and Dzogchen traditions, these teachings illuminate the profound opportunity for liberation that the night offers every practitioner.
December Deep Practice Challenge
Challenge
Close the year with commitment. December's longer nights and natural inwardness make it the ideal month for intensive dream yoga practice. Complete 22 meditation sessions, record 18 dreams, and reach the year's end with a transformed relationship to sleep, night, and the dreaming mind.
Winter Solstice Deep Sleep Retreat
Retreat
The longest night of the year is the practitioner's greatest gift. This two-day virtual retreat uses the power of the winter solstice to explore the yoga of deep dreamless sleep — the most advanced and often most neglected dimension of night-time practice. Guided sessions on sleep yoga, the nature of rigpa in deep sleep, and waking renewed.
