What past retreat participants have said:
I had the wonderful opportunity to join Holly and Giovanni on an international trip to Italy that was truly remarkable. They were both so accommodating, welcoming and put their heart and soul into creating an unforgettable trip with memories to last a lifetime. They went above and beyond to ensure that everyone had a wonderful time. Friendships and community was created making a rare opportunity of combining an experience to expand upon your spirituality, enjoy delicious and authentic food and to connect with nature in a unique and unforgettable ways.
One of the best life affirming and beautiful trips/groups I've ever been with. Powerfully transformative and insightful in many ways. Going home with a new outlook and happiness in my heart for the power of The Universe, the Earth and it's people.
I loved this retreat and connecting through the Dream World is fascinating and powerful. It gets right to the heart of issues working with Holly! Having Giovanni along was perfect!
Thank you Holly and Giovanni for such a memorable experience!
Feeling very rejuvenated and definitely feeling changed in a lot of different ways from the Dream Retreat experience!
The last few years have been chaotic with different life events. So the goal for me was to return to my centre but at the same time grow and explore new avenues to reconnect with my core values, enjoyment of life and to be still - 100% recommend and will join again!
What is a Dream Oracle?
It's someone who channels Spirit while asleep and in the Dream World on behalf of others and the collective to receive messages, insight and guidance around specific questions.Â
Essentially, it's someone who can dream on behalf of others. A Dream Oracle can also navigate the dimensions of Dream World to connect with, support, heal and guide other beings to initiate transformation, healing and deeper alignment to ones Higher Self.Â
Meet your co-host Holly Emmerson:
She is a Dream Oracle. She has a unique ability to channel Spirit and The Universe while asleep in the Dream World.
In the dimensions of the Dream World, she energetically and subconsciously work with her clients to support them in transforming and awakening to deeper conscious alignment to their Higher Selves. Through dreams, she also receives guidance and messages to support clients in their transformation and healing process in this waking dream.Â
Holly is also the Founder of Dream Oracle School where she teaches her students how to use dreams as a tool for spiritual awakening, learn their personal dream language and perhaps unlock their own unique abilities as a dreamer.Â
