a bad dream when you sleep peacefully through your dreams and don’t fear them when you wake up.

Planned Dream Intervention® is a paradigm shift—it is normal for you to have emotions such as fear, horror, shame or disgust in your dreams because those are normal emotions.

You can teach your sleeping brain to sleep peacefully through your dreams.

History of Planned Dream Intervention®

Creating Successful Planned Dream Interventions®—mastery experience/good gut level feeling




W2. Our Bodies Our Voice (OBOV) Dr. Elena V. Syurina, Netherlands . “Awareness of sexual violence” Virgil Madgearu

Room

Holistic approach, combining the research and consultations” we believe in the necessity of fostering skills of empathy, active listening and critical introspection, we give participants knowledge on what they can do to support survivors and help dismantle the stigma around sexual violence. We create a space for discussions about participants’ attitudes towards sex, boundaries and consent. Research in the field of sexual violence prevention has found that the most effective approach to changing culture and social norms involves continuous and multi-level intervention. We also focus on developing communication skills, concerning boundaries and consent; creating awareness of support systems and evolving into a survivor-centric and stigma free community; working on positive masculinity by engaging men in open, honest conversations about their roles in university communities; and bystander intervention, which is focused on developing participants' skills in intervening in challenging situations
