The Dream World
The Dream World Podcast is about focusing on sleep & dreams to better your mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. It is an interactive podcast, where anyone can join the conversation about exploring consciousness. Our goal is to bridge the gap between science and spirituality and normalize talking about dreams. We cover a variety of tips and topics on how to take care of the mind and body both in waking life and in the dream world. With an open mind, we investigate stories, anecdotes, research studies, myths, facts and everything in between, in order to explore the universe & all its mysteries🧠
🪐 We love talking to oneironauts (dream travelers) and learning about their experiences with lucid dreaming and other out-of-body-experiences. ⛈ To join our community, go to https://thedreamworldpodcast.com/
💡How can we learn from our dreams and apply it to our waking life? We as humans spend an entire THIRD of our lives asleep, where we sleepwalk through our dreams just as mindlessly as we walk through life. In our dreams, we visit another dimension called The Dream World. Wake up. Pay attention.
👩🏽🚀 Dreams are gifts that have a lot to teach us. Even nightmares can be transformative. “Lucid dreaming has considerable potential for promoting personal growth and self-development, enhancing self-confidence, improving mental and physical health, facilitating creative problem solving and helping you to progress on the path to self-mastery”.-Stephen Laberge. ⚡️
💡 We often hear stories of people who’ve learned from their dreams or been inspired by them, such as Paul McCartney’s hit song “Yesterday” coming to him in a dream or of Mendeleev’s dream-inspired construction of the periodic table of elements, suggesting that dreams are more than just a byproduct of sleep.
🎙The Dream World Podcast was ranked #1 Lucid Dream Podcast on the web in 2024.

EP34: The Truth About New Age Spirituality
Today my amazing guests are Carla & Yasmeen, who have both stepped up to spread awareness within the online spiritual community.
With the ability to connect with thousands and even millions of people instantly, social media has revolutionized how we communicate. Apps like Tik Tok shorten attention spans to make us consume quick and easily digestible content. It is designed so that people want to stay in the app longer, instead of leaving to further their research elsewhere. Unfortunately, the revolution of social media is a sharp double-edged sword and there are many dangers of fast spreading information, leading to pipelines of white supremacy within the spiritual community online.
Many black creators experience a great deal of censorship online. Those who are outspoken about white supremacy and racism have many times found their content removed or taken down for violating community guidelines.
The origins of the New Age Spiritual movement started as an inspiration to music, politics, education, social justice, and therapy as part of the 1960s opposition to mainstream consumer capitalism. While New Age spiritual movement encouraged universal peace, hope and love, there have been a number of new appropriations of New Age spiritualism by right-wing and far-right organizations.
