Course outline

In this immersive 4-night retreat we'll learn how to utilize the power of lucid dreaming and shadow work to help meet, befriend and transmute our shadow side into the gold of awakening.

Based on his new book "Do The Shadow Work" (launching Spring 2025) Charlie will be offering a fully updated and revised set of shadow work practices to the retreat. But what is the shadow?

The Shadow is made up of all that we hide from others: our shame, our fears, our psychological wounds, but also our golden potential, our blinding beauty and our hidden talents. It is a huge source of power and creativity but until we bring it into the light this power will remain untapped and our full potential unreached.

Imagine if we could meet our shadow in a lucid dream? We can. Using the “No Mud, No Lotus” approach this retreat will guide you to the gold that lies within your shadow through both lucid dream and waking state exercises.

We’ll combine an intensive daily schedule with optional night-time practices to create the best possible conditions for lucidity. Charlie’s teaching style is highly practical: using music, movement and interactive exercises to help deepen the learning experience.

Highlights include:

• Learning how to Lucid dream
• Exploring our personal shadows
• Shamanic Mask & Mirror work
• Tibetan Buddhist dream yoga
• Jungian shadow work
• Daily dream circles & Nap time
• Yoga Nidra sessions

The retreat is open to complete beginners (as well as seasoned practitioners) and will include everything you need to learn how to lucid dream and how to face & embrace your shadow.

This retreat takes a uniquely holistic approach to lucid dreaming best suited to those interested in psychological integration and spiritual growth.
The end goal is to become- in the words of Charlie’s teacher Lama Yeshe Rinpoche “more awake, more aware, more kind.”

*****************************************************************************

NB: How do the optional night-time practices work exactly?
Participants can choose to spend the second half of the night sleeping in the workshop space where they will be guided into several sessions of lucid dream practice. The night-time wake ups are totally optional though so if you would prefer to stay in your room then that’s absolutely fine.
If you do intend to do the night-time sessions please bring:
• A camping mattress/roll matt
• A sleeping bag/blanket.
• Extra pillow if you need one
• Enthusiasm and a sense of humour!
