SleepWalks: A CatNap for Lucid Dreaming
and Awakening Dance at BlessFest!
Friday July 20th, 11pm-2am
We spend about one-third of our lives sleeping and dreaming, yet scientists still don't know exactly why. In an average lifespan of 77 years that is 25 years of our lives. Many cultures find wisdom in dreams.
Some theorists propose that before the industrial age, in the United States we would fall asleep at night for just a few hours, and then wake up and share dreams together, even leaving the house to share with our neighbors, before having "second sleep", the more restful sleep of the night.
Bring your sleeping bags, pillows and comfy blankets to Stable Gate Farm and Winery for a First sleep–a 'catnap'– with sound artist Andrea Williams.
SleepWalks: A CatNap is a night of relaxation, lucid dreaming, and dancing that aims to awaken your creativity and dreams.
From 11pm to about 11:45 (First Sleep):
You will be offered essential oils and mugwort tea as you set up your bedding and comfy things in the Lodge. Sound artist, Andrea Williams will perform an improvised soundscape for lucid dreaminess and restfulness followed by a gong bath.
11:45pm-midnight: You will be gently awakened, and you can choose to journal, chat about the experience with others, return to slumberland at home or in your tent, OR...
Midnight to 2am:
Join us for AWAKENING DANCE, a vibrant, body moving DJ set by Matthias before your more restful return to slumberland in "Second Sleep".
