DREAMING DEEPER
a 4-week series for practicing dreamwork
& soulful dream interpretation
December 1 - December 29, 2024
classes held virtually on Zoom and will be recorded
Dreams can be dismissed because we have lives to live,
places to be, bills to pay. And yet - dreams can reveal the
underlying roots affecting our way of being,
seeing, and doing in every area of waking life.
Every dream (even a scary one) seeks to restore wholeness in some way;
if you struggle to attune to your true feelings or desires about a situation,
your dreams may hold the keys to empowering understanding.
Meeting for four classes throughout December, Dreaming Deeper will share foundational, soulful and somatic dreamwork practices.
Each class will begin with an introduction to our dreaming topic, followed by an experiential practice to implement into your sleep & dreaming life.
All classes will include a detailed workbook for continuing to integrate and practice in between our live meetings.
Classes are recorded and posted in a password-protected web portal for those unable to attend live,
and for those desiring to return to the classes again and again.
Dreaming Deeper is a way of curiosity, a devotional apprenticeship —
a patient willingness to lean in and listen to the messages
woven within the series of symbols and events
delivered through your dreams.
Dreaming Deeper will show you how to replace your desire to “figure dreams out” with a willingness to feel dreams out,
practicing patience, listening, and surrender. When you have the courage to be with and listen to the metaphorical symbols, sensations,
and reflections woven through a dream, lasting transformational insights can be seen, received, and integrated into waking life.

Paradoxically, Winter is the season where dreams flourish. Winter is when Mother Earth returns to the most ancient and original temple: Darkness. When nights are longest, Mother Earth curls up in cozy caves for hibernation, visioning, and dreaming into the seasons to come. Winter
is an especially potent time to practice Dream Incubations, Intentional Dreaming, and Dreamwork.

“Being guided and held in Madeline’s classes is such a blessing.
The gift of her careful, thoughtful, intentional curation invited me to drop deeply into my heart space. I received so much affirmative wisdom by connecting to my breath, the softness of my body, the prayer from the music, the angelic presence, the ancestral protection. It felt like my kind of church, where feeling
beloved is the sermon.”

ABOUT MADELINE
Madeline Giles is a somatic guide, breath facilitator, and herbalist devoted to living and dreaming a more compassionate world into being.
While I’ve been an avid dreamer throughout my life, I first started intentionally deepening my relationship with dreams 12 years ago while receiving my Master’s Degree in Spiritual Psychology - many of the practices learned through my studies with Drs. Ron & Mary Hulnick serve as the foundation for my dreaming practice and offerings today. This year, I have been training in animistic dreamwork through Ariella Daly’s Dream School and am currently immersed in ongoing 1:1 dreamwork sessions with Toko-pa Turner.
I hold a Master’s degree in Spiritual Psychology with an emphasis in Consciousness, Health, and Healing from the University of Santa Monica and over the past 6 years, I’ve studied and trained in somatic healing & post-traumatic growth with Rachael Maddox, Luis Mojica, David Bedrick, and workshops through Alchemical Alignment.
This past spring, I published my first book on intentional dreaming called Then I Woke Up: Dreaming with Mother Earth. Dreaming Deeper introduces the dreaming practices I have lived, loved, and learned from.
FAQS
-
Yes. All the classes are recorded and posted in a private web portal for you to take in your own time. The web portal will remain accessible long after the course closes (at least 1 year) - so you’re also welcome to revisit the classes & content again and again.
-
This course is designed to support total beginners as well as those yearning to deepen an existing dreaming practice. Each class builds on the last and will teach you foundational practices for beginning a dreamwork practice. If you have additional questions about this, feel free to email me at madeline@angelicbreathhealing.com
-
Dreaming Deeper is designed to offer foundational practices for dreamwork - it is meant to be accessible for both novices and experienced practitioners. If you’re feeling called ‘back to basics’ and yearning for a dedicated space that will assist you in deepening your existing practice, then I feel Dreaming Deeper could be a wonderful fit for you. If you’re looking to deepen in a specific style of dreamwork and sense what you’re needing isn’t the best fit for an introductory group, I encourage you to seek other courses/trainings. If you have additional questions about this, feel free to email me at madeline@angelicbreathhealing.com
-
Through this course, you will learn tools and practices for nourishing your dreaming life, including practical suggestions for remembering your dreams. That said: it’s not a requirement to remember all of your dreams to participate in this course. When we reach the “Decoding Your Dreams” classes, if you truly have zero dreams, zero glimmers, nothing from your past or present dreaming life to draw from, I’ll invite you to choose a waking life scenario you can move through the dream illumination process with. No matter how much you currently actively remember your dreams, this course is designed to support you in deepening your relationship with your dreaming life.
-
For at least a year following the live classes. If you’re called to return to the classes or take them at a later date, the recordings will remain available for you long past the live class recordings.
