The Luminous Thread

Following the Thread of Inner Knowing through Dreams, Breath, and Coherence

Dreamwork & Breathwork at the Solstice Portal and Beyond

(see discription below)


SIGN UP

As the sun illuminates the darkness at the Solstice, we trace our Luminous Thread of Awareness to the greater current of breath, dream, and awakened consciousness.

In a five-session series, we weave Dreamwork with Transformational Breathwork to stabilize the nervous system, cultivate heart–mind coherence, and listen to the body’s intelligence and guidance. Every breath and every dream becomes a luminous thread in the greater tapestry of life.

The Luminous Thread of Awareness is a private workshop that teaches basic dreamwork and breathwork practices that help contribute to greater personal wellbeing and awareness. The Luminous Thread of Awareness is a concept rooted in mindfulness and spiritual traditions across the planet. We invite you to join us in this transformational workshop through the Solstice portal using dreams and breath to welcome a more awakened and aware self.

Dr. Barbara Bain is an Indigenous Psychologist, Certified Dreamworker & Educator, Founder of Indigenous Awakening Consulting and https://barbarabain.com/

Meet the Team — The Luminous Thread

The Luminous Thread is guided by Dr. Barbara Bain, Indigenous Psychologist, Certified Dreamworker, and Founder of Indigenous Awakening Consulting, alongside Juliet Wilkins, Certified Transformational Breathwork Facilitator & Group Leader and Founder of Coherence Alchemy. Together, we weave a rare synthesis of Dreamwork and Transformational Breathwork—uniting symbolic intelligence, nervous system coherence, and embodied awakening. Rooted in somatic depth and the living language of dreams, this portal invites participants into a profound journey of inner listening and whole-body integration. We are deeply honored and genuinely excited to share this offering with our community, and to hold space for the women who feel called to follow this luminous thread back to the truth of who they are.
