The Premise

“Every night your mind builds a world so convincing you never once question it. What makes you so sure this one is different?”

Why This Course Exists

Every night you lose consciousness. Your body rests, but your mind goes somewhere extraordinary, a world with its own logic, its own physics, its own certainty. And while you are there, you believe it completely. You never doubt it. You never ask: is this real?

Then you wake. And without a second thought, you assume that question no longer applies.

This course begins with that assumption. And slowly, carefully, dismantles it.

It does so through Tibetan Dream Yoga, a 1,200-year-old contemplative practice, fused with modern lucid dreaming techniques validated by contemporary sleep research. In eight live sessions you will learn to become conscious inside your dreams, direct them, and return with ideas, images, and insights your waking mind could never produce alone.

This is not passive learning. We meet live, twice a week. You practice nightly. You bring your dreams back to the group. By the end, dreaming will feel less like something that happens to you, and more like a place you choose to go.

Dreams as an
Inspiration Machine

The unconscious mind doesn't follow rules. It combines what your waking brain separates. In a controlled lucid state, you can pose a creative problem before sleeping and watch your mind solve it in ways that genuinely surprise you. Artists leave these sessions with images, concepts, and directions they couldn't have arrived at any other way.

Spiritual
Elevation

Dream Yoga is not a technique, it's a path. In Tibetan tradition, recognizing a dream as a dream is the same recognition required for awakening itself. These practices cultivate a quality of awareness that changes not just your nights but the texture of waking life: more present, more open, less caught in habit.

III

Reclaiming
Lost Time

A third of your life is spent unconscious. With practice, that changes. Experienced dream yogis report that lucid sleep feels subjectively richer, more intentional, almost like living twice. You won't just sleep better. You'll add a second life running in parallel with the one you know.

Your Instructor

Sina Zade

Writer · Sculptor · Dream Practitioner

My journey into lucid dreaming began 12 years ago, when I first discovered that sleep could become a place of awareness, exploration, and transformation. What started as curiosity gradually became a long-term practice shaped by discipline, experimentation, and wonder.

Seven years ago, I was introduced to Tibetan Dream Yoga, an ancient tradition that approaches the dream state as a path of awakening and deeper consciousness. Its teachings added a new depth to my understanding, and the techniques I share in this course are drawn from that tradition, made practical and accessible.

I am also a writer and sculptor, and I studied sculpture at the New York Academy of Art. Many of my creative ideas and inspirations have emerged through dreams, where the mind reveals itself in powerful and unexpected ways. This course is the intersection of everything I have practiced privately, and now want to share.

From Past Students

What Creatives
Bring Back

I came in as a skeptic. I'm a graphic designer, I solve problems, I don't meditate. By week two I had my first lucid dream and spent an hour in what I can only describe as a gallery of images my brain had made for me. I filled a sketchbook in two days.

Leila H., Brand Designer, Amsterdam

The thing no one tells you is that it's not about controlling the dream. It's about being awake enough inside it to receive what's already there. That shift, from control to presence, changed how I work when I'm awake too. My whole process is different now.

Jonas T., Composer, Berlin

I've been writing fiction for twenty years. This opened a door I didn't know existed. My last novel has an entire subplot that came directly from a series of lucid dreams during the course. My editor called it the best thing I've ever written.

About the Course

This course is based on a method I developed through years of personal practice and teaching others.

Yes. All sessions are recorded, so you can watch them later if you miss a live class.
We use Google Meet. You will receive a link for each session, and you can join directly through your web browser without installing anything.
Yes. Every participant receives up to 10 hours of Q&A support to help with questions, guidance, and personal progress throughout the course.

About the Practice

For most people, lucid dreaming practices are gentle and safe. Many of the methods are simple awareness exercises or meditations. Everything is done gradually, and you remain in control of your own pace and experience.
You can absolutely still do this course. Dream recall is a skill that can be developed. I will teach you methods to improve memory of dreams step by step. Everyone dreams, many people simply have not yet learned how to remember them.
If you sleep, even lightly or for shorter periods, you can still practice lucid dreaming. In some cases, students also develop healthier sleep habits through the calming practices taught in the course.
Lucid dreaming benefits from consistency more than intensity. The core practices are simple and manageable, often involving short exercises during the day and gentle meditations before sleep. Many of these naturally continue until you fall asleep.
When practiced in a balanced way, many people find their sleep becomes more restful and that they wake feeling fresher. The course emphasizes healthy practice rather than forcing results.
