California
School of Professional Psychology Certificate in Dreamwork
For those interested in dreams and therapy, the California School of Professional
Psychology offers programming to provide the helping professional with new
techniques and perspectives in the management of his/her client-base. Alameda,
California Campus, 1005 AtlanticAve.800-298-0317. In this new certificate,
the participants learn about the use of dreamwork in psychotherapeutic practice.
Why dreamwork? Several reasons - first, few therapists receive formal training
in working with dreams; second, skills in this area enhance assessment, diagnosis
and treatment- related skills already possessed by practicing clinicians.
In a clinical context where much work has already been accomplished at an
accelerated rate, the dream as an assessment tool can provide a snapshot of
the emotional soul and even physical health rounding out the clinical interview.
Future courses will explore higher level topics such as the use of dreamwork
with couples, groups, and the community-at-large; the role of trance in dreamwork;
medical dreamwork; and special topics in the area of dream and self research.

The
Lucidity Institute (Palo Alto, California)
Offers periodic Residential Training Programs in Lucid Dreaming with Stephen
LaBerge, Ph.D. and Special Guests, held at Stanford University in Palo Alto,
California. Becoming adept at lucid dreaming requires a degree of focused
and sustained attention and practice that is often difficult to arrange in
the face of the many demands of our busy workaday lives. These carefully designed
programs provide an ideal opportunity to devote time exclusively to cultivating
your lucid dreaming ability and enhancing your consciousness in everyday life.
Unlike weekend workshops, in which we are limited to instruction in methods
of lucid dream induction for participants to employ at home, this intensive
program aims to bring you to the experience of lucid dreaming during the course
of the program through practice, discussion, guidance, and specially designed
sleep schedules. The retreat includes: focus on lucid dreaming while lodging
on the beautiful, dream-inspiring Stanford University campus, daily group
and individual exercises in developing lucid dreaming skills and enhancing
consciousness, dreaming and waking; a sleep schedule (including naps) optimized
for the promotion of lucid dreams; use of lucid dream induction technology:
DreamLights, SuperNovaDreamers, PESTs, DreamSpeakers, and new experimental
devices ; discussion sessions and personal guidance by Dr. Stephen LaBerge,
author of Lucid Dreaming and Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming ; lectures
and discussions on the science of lucid dreaming and continuing research and
field trips to the Stanford lab to observe lucid dreaming research in action;
group support in your endeavor to master lucid dreaming; instructional materials
including the Lucidity Institute's Course in Lucid Dreaming and Oneironautical
Log. For information, call 415-321-9969 or 1-800-Go-Lucid; FAX 415-321-9967;
