YOUR OFFICIAL COURSE WORKBOOK

4 Simple Tips To Get The Most Out of This Class:

1. Print this workbook out before starting to listen to the recording so you can write down
your notes as you listen.


2. Review the topic outline so you know what to listen for. Make sure you've set aside
private time for this session (minimum 50 minutes) so you’ll be able to focus and fully
receive the benefits of the session.


3. Write down all the interesting and new ideas and inspirations you get while listening —
that way you won’t lose the information most relevant to you.


4. Think of how you can quickly implement the teachings shared in this session.

Preparation Tips:

• Make sure you are in a quiet place where nothing can distract you, and that you are not
driving a car or any other vehicle. Be in a comfortable position so you can fully take part
in any of the exercises or meditations that are part of the class.


• Stretch your muscles before starting the class. Stretching loosens the muscles and
tendons allowing you to sit (or lie) more comfortably. Additionally, stretching starts the
process of “going inward” and brings added focus to the body.


• Take a deep breath. Breathing deeply slows down the heart rate and relaxes the
muscles to help you have a comfortable experience during any guided exercises that will
happen during the class.


We hope you’ll enjoy it!

How To Practice Lucid Dreaming

Active listening it’s fully concentrating on and absorbing what someone else is
saying to you. It is also a fast way to learn new notions. As you are progressing with
your lessons, try to answer the questions below, in your own words.

Develop a habit of taking copious notes whenever the case is needed. When you
write notes, you are holding yourself accountable. In order to write things in your
own words, you need to understand what you are listening too. This concerted
effort will facilitate the retention of information.

Western Nighttime Induction Technique

Your attitude is the most important ingredient when you want to achieve lucidity in
your dreams. If you go to bed relaxed, most likely you will have relaxed dreams.

When you have relaxed dreams, it is more likely to have Lucid Dreams.

Now, I want you to remember the last time you had relaxed, very vivid and very
pleasant dream.

Try to remember your day before you went to sleep. Write in the space bellow
everything you can remember from that day. You don't have to think about it, just let
you mind guide.
