Jennifer Dumpert: Surfing the Edges of Consciousness

Jennifer Dumpert is an "oneironaut", an explorer of dream consciousness, who has spent many decades working with the liminal dream space. Liminal Dreaming is the space that we often don't pay attention to and hence barrel through it from waking consciousness all the way to REM sleep. Jennifer teaches us that there is a whole world available in these spaces, a world full of insight, creativity and healing, and the same very real dimension where Salvadore Dali and Thomas Edison would use to create works of art and genius. Nicola Tesla would often inquire with his assistant to whether he was dreaming or not because he was so often in this liminal dream space. Zack explores with Jennifer some of the possibilities available to us in the Liminal Dream space and how it can help us with nightmares, creativity, healing and becoming comfortable with the unknown and even death. You'll become acquainted to the "Bardo" state referred to by the Tibetan Holy men and referred to by different names by other mystics. 

Jennifer is the author of the book "Liminal Dreaming" and teaches workshops at many transformational festivals. She has been known to say that one when cultivates liminal dream states, one can open themselves up to psychedelic experiences without any of the negative consequences that can be associated with those medicines. There is a world alive within us all that begs to be witnessed and explored in her depth and beauty.
