The Plains Indians say the path of the soul after death is the same as the path of the soul in dreams. Dreaming
and dreamwork are central to developing an art of dying that works for us today, a process that is urgently
needed, according to Robert Moss.

His workshops and classes in Active Dreaming use shamanic techniques for shifting consciousness and
embarking on conscious dream travel. His current schedule (and many other goodies) are on his website,
http://www.mossdreams.com. He has founded regional Dream Schools in the USA that hold monthly evening
classes in Active Dreaming at basic, intermediate and advanced levels, as well as depth workshops and
trainings. These are currently operating in Connecticut, upstate New York and western Massachusetts. Having
attended one of his Shamanic Workshops at the IASD Conference in 2004, I'm very pleased to hear that he is
now offering his workshops throughout Europe, including the UK.

His Lightning Dreamwork process is now being widely taught and practiced. This is a method for dream
sharing that makes it possible to open a safe space to share a dream, receive helpful and non-intrusive
feedback, and develop an action plan to honor the dream - all in 8 minutes or less (which means we can do it
just about anywhere, anytime). He introduced this process at the ASD Conference in Washington DC in 2000.
