Women's Dream Cave 2022
Overnight Dreamwork Immersion
July 16 @ 6:30pm - July 17 @ 12:30pm
Location: The Cavewoman Way Studio - Chattanooga, TN
Dreams are often invitations from the realm of Soul and they can serve as portals to an even deeper journey if we know how to work with them. They call us to dance with mystery and deepen our connection with our intuition. In Transpersonal Dreamwork, we learn how to travel beyond initial interpretations and see where else our dreams want to take us. Such an inner quest can lead to some unexpected discoveries!
This overnight experience is limited to 8 women to ensure there is enough time for everyone to share and be part of a dreamwork demonstration if they choose to be. No dreamwork experience is needed and you don’t have to have vivid dreams or remember full dreams to attend and benefit from this experience. We will work with dream images from your past as well as any dreams or messages that may emerge during our night together. Michelle will also lead a "waking" dream journey that will offer you the opportunity to apply some of these techniques to synchronicities and reappearing symbols in your life.

Saturday Night
Think of this as a dream-themed sleepover! There will be plenty of room to spread out and tuck yourself in for the night both in the studio and the yoga room. Bring a cot or small air mattress, or make a yoga mat pallet. Don't forget a blanket/sleeping bag and pillow. If you are sensitive to sounds or light, you may want to bring an eye mask or earplugs. An instrumental dream song will play throughout the night and the lights will be turned off. A night light will illuminate the restroom area.

Dream Sharing
Dreamwork Mini-sessions
Guayusa tea helps us revisit and reconnect with dreams and has been worked with in dreamwork for centuries. It is also packed with natural energy and antioxidants that can support our minds and bodies throughout the day. As we sip our tea, we will share any dreams or experiences from Saturday Night. (Guayusa naturally contains caffeine; caffeine-free teas will be available as well)
