Dream Tending and Deep Imagination Certificate I Program

November 3, 2023 - June 30, 2024

The Dream Tending and Deep Imagination Certificate I Program is a limited-enrollment program that takes place over four separate three-day sessions. The four courses reflect the multiple dimensions of psychic life and the dream. Learning in dream theory and methodology is both content based and experiential. Much of the learning will also take place in the dimension of dream life that is sensitive to aesthetic perceiving, poetic imagining, shamanic intuiting, and the art of not-knowing.

November 15, 2023 - April 24, 2024

The Dream Tending and Deep Imagination Certificate Program II introduces the cutting edge of Dr. Stephen Aizenstat’s new work on the Imagination Matrix in relation to Dream Tending. The Certificate program includes a time of “creative incubation,” a time to imagine, innovate, and tend dreams as portals into deep imagination. The work will be deeply personal as well as community oriented.

December 13, 2023 - June 7, 2024

The Dream Tending and Deep Imagination Certificate III Program brings focus to how somatic journeying can open the doors of perception that allow increased access to realms of dream, deep imagination, and the healing arts. The confluence of somatic awareness and imaginal intelligence offers opportunities to integrate mind, body, and soul. Dr. Aizenstat has found over the many years of Dream Tending that there exists an alchemical blue fire of psyche and soma that ignites the emergence of our authentic being.
