From Out of the Darkness Comes the Light

Published by Bonnie on September 10, 2013

Hello Everyone!

I’ve come out of my August Pause to turn onto the busy corner of fall where we leave the carefree vacations of summer for resumed working routines and renewed responsibilities. It’s a time when all of nature is occupied with harvesting, gathering, and shoring up their stores for winter. Fall is a rhythm of bringing in, but also one of letting go as leaves begin to tumble down and days become shorter. The darkening time of this season is seen in many cultures as offering a time of reflection and spiritual deepening; longer nights prompt more dreaming. It is within this vein that I am launching several fall/winter online classes.

How do I know what I want? How do I know what my most deep inside is telling me? How do I access that seed of authenticity inside myself that allows me to live and work from a place of abundant creativity and meaning? These are some questions of the longer nights of fall as we take stock of ourselves, assessing the gifts we gained in the last season, what we are now in need of letting go, and diving deep inside to discover what seed we can grow to flower in the spring. We find the responses to these questions by looking INTO the darkness within ourselves through dreaming and our imagination. By diving beneath the busy agitations of the surface we bring the light of our consciousness to our innermost self and are rewarded with the light of revelation.

From out of the darkness comes the Light.

Below are the classes I’m offering this fall. Each of the classes work with dreams and imagery to access the deepest inner self where we find the answers to our questions, the solutions to our problems, and the way forward. Within that, each class has a different focus to meet varying objectives; no class is the same, so you are welcome to take more than one class.

Also, beginning October 6 I will resume private sessions. If you are interested in booking a time with me please email.

And just to get everyone in the swing of dream-thinking, I’ll be giving an interview with Maeve Crawford at Creating Calm Network on dreaming Monday, September 16th at 12pm PST | 20h UK. Click here to get more information and to listen on September 16th.

I’m looking forward to dreaming with everyone this season!

All classes meet online

This class is for you if you have done dream openings either with me in a group or via individual sessions, or at the School of Images in NYC (if you aren’t sure please email me). In this class we dive straight in to open one dream per class. We will also take one or two advanced dreaming exercises to work on during the days between classes.

Creative Success: From Idea to Creation in 10 Weeks 10 weeks | October7 – December 16 (varied days and times; see below for exact schedule) | $725 USD (550 Euro)

This class is for you if you are a creative or executive professional with an idea you’ve wanted to explore or with a project you’re already presently working on. This can be, as examples, a written project (screenplay, novel, play, presentation), art project (painting, sculpture), a business plan, or a music endeavor. The purpose of the class is to expand your creativity through a series of imagery and dream exercises, and to address areas where blocks have or may occur. By working in a group you will learn more clearly how blocked patterns in our creativity can manifest, and how to shift them to productivity. We will set agreed-upon goals for your project, with check-in points to ensure that you move forward to arrive at the end of the class with a finished draft/project no matter the size. Bring to the class your idea or project and get ready to imagine it into tangible being!

The class consists of:

5 90-minute imagery workshops
Mondays October 14, October 28, November 11, November 25, December 9th at 10a Pacific (US) | 1p Eastern (US) |19h CEST

2 90-minute group goal-setting/brain-storming sessions
Mondays October 7 and November 18 at 10a Pacific (US) | 1p Eastern (US) |19h CEST

2 90-minute individual imagery sessions (to be scheduled individually during course of the class at student’s convenience)

Final group class/party to reveal manifested project and discuss where to go next(!):

Executive Spirit Walk 10 weeks | October 10 – December 19 (varied days and times; see below for exact schedule)| $1125 USD (850 Euro)
Modern business calls upon us to make quick choices with decisive forward movement, leaving little time for deeper reflection. The benefit of this is learning to manifest and take risks; the downfall is finding ourselves in the midst of our career path feeling stripped of meaning and lacking real purpose. When this happens the tendency is often to look outside our current positions to try and find that greater purpose in life. This may be the right choice, however, meaning can also be found where we currently are.

The Executive Spirit Walk class is designed for the career professional to discover the rich purpose available in your current positions, as well as to imaginatively explore whether or not this is your true path at the moment (and if it is time for a change, to discern how and where to make that change). It is a class that will teach you how to find meaning in your efforts, and to focus your efforts toward greater meaning. You will learn how to develop deeper relationships with collaborators, colleagues, and staff. As a result, your professional life will reach a new dynamism, which will also extend out into your personal life. Boredom and routine will dissipate and you will find yourself greeting your days and your newfound goals with enthusiasm and creativity.

The class consists of:

4 90-minute group workshops
Thursdays October 10, October 31, November 21, December 19 at 10a Pacific (US) | 1p Eastern (US) |19h CEST

6 90-minute dream groups (with class mates; not put together with on-going dream groups)
Thursdays October 17, October 24, November 7, November 14, December 5, December 12 at 10a Pacific (US) | 1p Eastern (US) |19h CEST

2 90-minute individual imagery sessions (scheduled individually during course of the class at student’s convenience)

Between sessions there will be exercises to be done individually at home.
