Join us for a transformative weekend of dream theatre, sound healing, and immersive storytelling!

As we step into the days following the Spring Equinox—when the veil between worlds is thin and the earth stirs with renewal—we gather at the Stanton Drew Stone Circles, one of Britain’s most ancient and enigmatic megalithic sites.

Dating back to the Late Neolithic period (c. 3000–2500 BCE), the vast circles here are part of a forgotten ceremonial landscape, older than some phases of Stonehenge.

Geophysical surveys have revealed hidden wooden structures beneath the stones, hinting at lost rituals and ancient gatherings.

Local legend tells of a wedding party that danced into the night, defying the sacredness of the Sabbath. A mysterious fiddler arrived, playing intoxicating music that lured them into a wild frenzy. As midnight struck, the musician revealed himself to be the Devil—and in an instant, the revellers were turned to stone, frozen in eternal ecstasy.

Will you come and wake up the wedding party?

It is in this charged and liminal space that we invite you to dream, create, and step into the world of Dionysian ritual theatre—where waking life and dreamtime merge, and the stones themselves may begin to speak.

Sarah is a leading voice in the study of dreams and consciousness. Her extensive research and reviving of ancient Greek, Egyptian, and Mesopotamian dream traditions, combined with her hands-on approach to teaching, has produced a unique and powerful method that has helped thousands of people advance toward deeper self-discovery.

What if your dreams are messages from the gods — portals to healing that can offer you glimpses of your highest potential?

Experience the ancient Greek practice of sacred dreaming to access creativity, wisdom, and deep healing — expanding your consciousness and bringing greater clarity, insight, and bliss into both your dreams and waking life.

Dreams have always held a mysterious power, offering glimpses into the subconscious, revealing hidden truths, and connecting us to something greater than ourselves.

Yet in the modern world, where distractions can be endless and sleep is often restless, many people feel disconnected from their dreams.

Maybe you used to have vivid dreams but haven’t been able to recall them in years. Or perhaps you’ve always sensed that dreams hold deeper meaning and are portals to creativity, healing, and guidance — but you’re not sure how to access them with intention.

In the ancient world, dreams weren’t dismissed as random images of the night — they were revered as sacred messages from the Divine, shares Sarah Janes, co-director of Dream Palace Athens.

Across cultures, temples were built specifically for dreaming, and were places where seekers would rest in hopes of receiving visions from the gods — answers to life’s greatest questions, glimpses of the future, and even spontaneous healing.

Sarah is a leading voice in the study of dream mysteries, mythology, and consciousness.

Her extensive research and reviving of ancient Greek, Egyptian, and Mesopotamian dream traditions, combined with her hands-on approach to teaching — leading seekers into ancient dream temples to experience their power firsthand — is a unique and powerful method that’s helped thousands of people toward deeper self-discovery.

Join Sarah for an immersive 7-week journey that will take you deep into the dream temples of ancient Greece.

Drawing from myth, ritual, and practical dream techniques, you’ll learn how to awaken your dream life, invite divine encounters, and harness the power of dreams for personal growth, healing, and creative breakthroughs.

The ancient Greeks perfected these practices, using dreams not only for insight but as powerful tools for transformation. Now, you have the opportunity to rediscover these lost traditions and bring their wisdom into your own life.

Each week of the course, you’ll work with a different Greek god or goddess, exploring how their archetypal energy shapes your dreams and how you can use this understanding to transform your waking life.

Using on-location video recordings made at ancient dream sites in Greece, Sarah will guide you through dream activation techniques practiced in the very temples where seekers once lay down to receive visions from the gods.

Learn ancient dream incubation practices, the same methods used in sacred healing temples dedicated to Asklepios, the Greek god of medicine.

Experience hypnagogic meditations inspired by the ancient Greeks, expanding your dream states and learning how to seed intentions that manifest in both the dream world and waking reality.

Through guided dream meditations, storytelling, and practical exercises, understand how to recall dreams more vividly, access lucid states, and receive direct guidance from your subconscious.

You’ll also explore sensory techniques — such as the use of specific herbs, scents, and sounds — to prime your mind for deep dreaming, reconnecting with practices that have been lost to time.

And, you’ll discover how to set dream intentions and recognize the ways in which mythology provides a map for the dream world.

By working with the gods and goddesses of ancient Greece, you’ll discover how to enter the dream space as a seeker, allowing dreams to offer insight, healing, and even glimpses of what’s to come.

By the end of this journey, you’ll have a powerful dream practice that allows you to turn your dreams into tools for healing, insight, and creative expansion.
