The Dream World

A quick recap of the lucid dreams I had this week! Feel free to share some of your dreams in the comments! What actually happens when you become lucid inside a dream, and start experimenting with the dream world?

Welcome to Part 4 of My Lucid Dream Adventures, where I open up my dream journal and share some of my recent lucid dreams, strange experiences, experiments, and lessons from inside the dream world.

I’ve been lucid dreaming since childhood, and after more than 25 years of exploring my dreams, I’m still constantly surprised by what happens when I realize I’m dreaming. In this episode, we explore lucid dreaming, dream control, dream characters, consciousness, reality checks, dream experiments, and the mysteries of the dreaming mind.

Whether you're learning how to lucid dream or you're already an experienced oneironaut, I hope these adventures inspire some ideas for your next lucid dream. 🌙 What would YOU do if you realized you were dreaming tonight?

In this episode of the Dream World Podcast, I sit down with dream worker, storyteller, and researcher Andrusa Lawson for a deep conversation on dream recall, shadow work, lucid dreaming, collective consciousness, and the sacred nature of the dream space. We reflect on the importance of finding spaces where dreamwork, vulnerability, and collective exploration can exist safely and authentically. Andrusa speaks on the challenges of doing deeply personal and transformative work in a world shaped by survival, inequality, distraction, and systems that often overlook or silence marginalized voices. Rather than rushing to expand dream technologies or communities, he emphasizes the need for environments rooted in trust, care, inclusion, and genuine human connection — spaces where people can engage with the dreaming without fear of judgment, exploitation, or having their experiences dismissed.
Andrusa shares his experiences growing up in a family that actively shared dreams, how dreams became a tool for navigating trauma and connection, and why he believes dreaming may be one of the most accessible gateways into self-awareness and healing. We explore his concept of “dream cartography” — mapping recurring dreamscapes and navigating the dream world through lucidity, symbolism, and intention.

In this episode of The Dream World Podcast, I’m joined by Jeanie Love, a transpersonal trauma therapist and licensed psychedelic facilitator, to explore the powerful intersection between dreams, psychedelics, and healing. Jeanie is a trauma-informed therapist, psychedelic facilitator, and retreat host supporting individuals and couples through their authentic unfolding. Her integrative approach bridges psychology and spirituality, knowing when to lean into a more grounded, nervous system based approach versus a transpersonal approach.
Jeanie shares her work guiding clients through altered states of consciousness using modalities like ketamine and psilocybin, and how these experiences can support deep emotional processing, trauma healing, and personal transformation. We also dive into the fascinating parallels between psychedelic journeys and the dream state—both as tools for accessing the subconscious and making meaning from symbolic experiences.
We discuss:

What psychedelic-assisted therapy looks like in practice

How dreams become more vivid before and after psychedelic journeys

The role of integration and meaning-making after altered states

Why facilitators avoid imposing interpretation

The balance between control and surrender in dreams and psychedelics

Signs of resistance and how the mind copes in altered states

Common themes like ego death, flow, and interconnectedness

Dream incubation vs intention setting in psychedelic work

How to know if this type of therapy is right for you

The future of psychedelic therapy and consciousness exploration

Jeanie also explains how healing doesn’t come from being told the answers—but from learning how to sit with the experience and allow meaning to unfold naturally. 🌐 Learn more about Jeanie’s work at www.jeanie.love

In this episode of The Dream World Podcast, I’m joined by author and researcher David J. Brown and artist and futurist Sara Phinn Huntley to explore the fascinating world of DMT entities.
We dive into their collaborative book, The Illustrated Field Guide to DMT Entities, and discuss the recurring beings reported across psychedelic journeys, lucid dreams, meditation, and other altered states of consciousness. From machine elves and mantis beings to mythological archetypes, this conversation explores the overlap between science, spirituality, and subjective experience.
Together, we discuss:

What DMT is and why it's called “the spirit molecule”

Common entities reported across DMT experiences

The famous “machine elves” and mantis beings

Parallels between DMT, lucid dreaming, and meditation

Whether these entities exist independently of the mind

Harm reduction and responsible exploration

Using dreams as a natural gateway to altered states

The intersection of art, technology, and psychedelic research

David and Sara also share how they cataloged hundreds of reports from research, folklore, and personal experiences to create a visual “field guide” to non-human intelligences encountered in altered states.
This episode explores one of the biggest questions in consciousness research:Are these beings psychological archetypes — or something more?
