With Dream Yoga, Andrew Holecek guided us into Tibetan Buddhism’s nocturnal path to lucid dreaming. Here, he offers in-depth instruction in the tradition’s daytime practices. “Waking experience is also a type of dream”, teaches Holecek, “and things are not as solid and real as we think. This insight is what transforms a non-lucid life into a lucid one.” For those drawn to Tibet’s profound teachings for awakening to the true nature of reality - in the day or night - this guide shows us the way.

It is said that the practice of dream yoga deepens our awareness during all our experience: the dreams of the night; the dream-like experience of the day; and the bardo experiences after death. Indeed, the practice of dream yoga is a powerful tool of awakening, used for hundreds of years by the great masters of the Tibetan traditions. Unlike in the Western psychological approach to dreams, the ultimate goal of Tibetan dream yoga is the recognition of the nature of mind or enlightenment itself.

In the process, he stumbles upon the Inner Self. While lucid (consciously aware) in the dream state and able to act and interact with dream figures, objects, and settings, dream expert Robert Waggoner experienced something transformative and unexpected. He was able to interact consciously with the dream observer.

The Shadow is the part of us made up of all that we hide from others: our shame, our fears, and our wounds, but also our divine spirit, our blinding beauty, and our hidden talents. The Shadow is not bad - in fact it is the source of our creativity and power - but until we bring it into the light this power will remain untapped and our full potential unreached.

Lama Yeshe didn't see a car until he was 15 years old. In his quiet village, he and other children ran in fields with yaks and mastiffs. The rhythm of life was anchored by the pastoral cycles. Food was carefully apportioned and eaten together, everyone was family. The arrival of Chinese army cars one day in 1959 changed everything. In the wake of the deadly Tibetan Uprising, he escaped to India through the Himalayas to start over as a refugee.

Beautifully illustrated
I began seeking inspiration to practice the Art of Lucid Dreaming, I know have that plus I have been employing Buddhist techniques to enrich my practice with more structure towards a meaningful approach. Lucid Dreams on there own are amazing tools to probe for understanding and play but the additional Buddhist methods have enabled me to go even deeper into self where a profound duty seeks its balance.
The author is witty and clear spoken. It almost feels like a face to face sitting. I like the quoted Carl Jung and all the Buddha’s.
I look forward to further additions.

nice ideas, ignore the misinformation
but how does the reader/listener know which bits are misinformation when their own knowledge is limited too? the author should steer clear of topics they have no understanding of, such as psychosis and schizophrenia. misinformation bandied around incompetently perpetuates miseducation and confusion about things that are already very confusing and scary for many people.
other than this veering into territories he doesn't know anything about (e.g. thinks that schizophrenia is just hearing voices, and more ignorance, total lack of understanding), this book is pretty decent. some nice tidbits and observations around dream yoga. narration & voice is pretty good.

All encompassing, a lesson somewhere for everyone!
This is my first review so my apologies for poor grammar, punctuation, etc.
I feel I could write quite a lot about this audiobook but I’ll try to keep it as concise as possible. Andrew, the author, had a really warming feel to his voice and I imagine it’s representative of, what I imagine, is down to his kind and gentle personality. It really shines through in his words, cadence and overall message throughout. The book is sincere and made me question a lot about myself, as it should, and as I hoped it would. It’s difficult to wade through the sea of information out there today, on all subjects. Lucid dreaming is starting to become that way but I’d recommend this as a great starting point or even for experienced practitioners. I’ve been on my journey,intermittently, for a few years now and I can honestly say that this is the most effective set of techniques that I’ve come across. I’ve listened to the whole book a couple of times, choosing certain segments for meditation and slipping into dreams, now sometimes lucid. I recommend this to anyone who’s ready to be honest with themselves but not harsh. It’s nice to have someone easy going to guide us through the tricky bits of our own reality.
Anyway, so much for keeping it short. I think it’s worth the investment and at the very least, you’ve invested some time into concepts that are only going to benefit yourself and others around you. If there’s any critiques to be made, I’d say you’d have to look pretty hard for them.
Thanks again Andrew, all the best!

Great For Beginners | Shallow For The Experienced
Andrew Holecek was great at condensing profound Vajrayana insights and fusing them with Western lucid dreaming practice. You do not need prior Buddhist, meditative, nor lucid dream experiences to apply what he teaches in this book. He also does a good job of continuously re-emphasizing core teachings in a subtle way.
However, to those with substantial prior experience in any of the above mentioned traditions: you might find this book to be too shallow. Instead, I would recommend Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche's The Tibetan Yogas of Dream and Sleep.
Andrew also has a great, but sometimes unbearably slow voice. You might find that 1.25x speed will be more appropriate.

This books strategies work
Any additional comments?
I was browsing audible one day for mindfulness related titles and came across some titles related to lucid dreaming. I didn't know what lucid dreaming was so curiously I read some book summaries and googled it. It seemed a brand new and interesting topic after looking for books on lucid dreaming I decided on this one. I decided that I would wait to review this book until I have practiced the principles outlined in the book as its a how-to-book and not just a story. If I would have rated it right away I would have also rated it a high score based on performance and story applied to the topic. So its been about 15 days since I've finished the book. Keep in mind I have had no practice in lucid dreaming, never tried lucid dreaming practices, or had prior knowledge on the subject. By casually following the principles/strategies in this book I immediately started having great dream recall just by being more conscious of trying to remember the dreams. He recommends a supplement for recall that wasn't necessary for me. I have had multiple lucid dreams which are really cool they don't last long and I'm sure they will last longer with more in practice. I seem to get lucky and automatically wake up before my last sleep cycle of the night at that time I practice the visualization practice of the red lotus mentioned on the way back to sleep which seems to really trigger these dreams. If you want a single book that works this book works.

The book starts out slow, but really picks up in chapter 4. Andrew Holecek is my favorite speaker on Dream Yoga and I'll be purchasing all of his future works.

Fantastic
This is the best book on lucid dreaming I have found. Full of beautiful insights on reality vs. dreams. Some of the buddhist themes may be a little hard to follow at first, especially if you're unfamiliar with eastern philosophy, but once the ideas mature in your head you see how nicely they fit in.
I highly recommend this book!

I’ve listened twice and will have a third helping of the many nutrients and wisdom
Provided is Andrew Holecek fabulous course on dream yoga! The words are profound proceeding from decades of practice and experience. The narration is warm and gentle, unpretentious tea in the breakfast nook of a master teacher. Gratitude for dedicated educators on the path!!

An amazing book about awakening!

I've never read the book. I only listened to the audio version and it was fantastic!

The practice of meditation, lucid dreaming and illusory form were great! I had been doing this for some time before finding this book and I was pleased to find confirmation of my experiences in it.
What about Andrew Holecek’s performance did you like?
He was very good at explaining very subtle concepts.
What’s an idea from the book that you will remember?
The idea that your waking life is just another dream to wake up from.

This is tremendous
If you could sum up Dream Yoga in three words, what would they be?
Thorough, Insightful, Stressfree.
Andrew Holecek covers everything imaginable to give you a strong foundation on which to build your dream yoga practice. His voice is calm and steady, so it's really easy to listen to at night, to be reminded of some of the practices just as you're falling asleep.
What insight do you think you’ll apply from Dream Yoga?
There are many insights that I apply to my practice, such as sleep posture, jumping, having cards around the house to pick up and read to do a state check.
Any additional comments?
This is the best program on lucid dreaming and dream yoga that I've had the pleasure of listening to.

The Ego Can Get Behind This
The immediate benefit is Andrew’s narration, which is conversational in tone, giving room between words and phrases, allowing the listener time to pleasurably comprehend. Here is a thoroughly experienced explorer of the inner and outer realms. A joy to study.
Andrew’s commentary on spiritual development is light-hearted, playful and transparent. As a multiple decade meditator, I gained fresh ways to understand and benefit from the dream and waking states.
As anyone who's done a lot of work on themselves knows, ego is the ultimate control freak. As such, many parts of this book will frighten, but the underlying benefit of having control over the dream state and mind is something the ego can get behind.
