What's the difference between Mondo Beyondo and Dream Lab?

For this summer session of Dream Lab, we will be setting aside our lists for eight weeks and experimenting with what is possible when we truly sink into play, rest and kindness. What shifts in our lives? Where do we become unstuck? What comes alive in us that can fuel us for any future dream we can imagine?

This program isn't about conscious manifesting but about seeing what shifts in our lives naturally as a result of radical acts of play, rest and kindness.

Who is it for?

  • Anyone who is tired of the hamster wheel and ready to rest more and worry less.

  • Anyone who is up against the compulsion to do more and be responsible at the expense of their happiness or physical well-being.

  • Anyone who would enjoy a daily invitation to be playful.

  • Dreamers who want to develop their sense of trust and spontaneity.

  • Former students of Mondo Beyondo who want to reinforce key Mondo Beyondo concepts like being flexible and following your intuition.

How does it work?

Three times a week, you will receive a lesson from the Mondo Beyondo Dream Lab in your inbox. The lessons are designed to help you stay focused on rest, play and personal kindness. Beautifully designed and streamlined for inspiration, your message will surprise, inspire & invite you to let go of whatever is holding you back from true rest and real joy. There will also be a private Dream Lab blog where we can share and discuss.

Since everything is always better when you know you're not in it alone, once a week you'll also receive an invitation to join the greater Mondo Beyondo community on a Secret Mission. Our favorite mavens of kindness, rest and play will take turns leading us in acts of radical goodness in our own neighborhoods around the world.

When does it begin and how long does it last?

The most recent session began on June 21st, 2010 and finishes on August 13th. (Latecomers welcome! You can catch up on the Dream Lab blog.)

How does the class work?

Each weekday (on a private web site) we will be offering lessons, activities, and exercises that will help you uncover your deepest wishes and dreams and explore what it takes to realize them. We will inspire you, tell you stories, feed you snacks, and guide you through this process of making your dreams real.

We believe in you and your dreams.


How much time does it take?

Not much, really. We will have lessons posted each week, journaling exercises to do, and other fun stuff each weekday, but you can do as much or as little as you like. There will also be ways to participate within the Mondo Beyondo community through discussion boards and blogs.

That said, we encourage you to dive into this with your whole heart. After all, your dreams are at stake here! Just like anything, what we pay attention to thrives. We want your dreams to thrive.


What do I need to start?

You'll need access to a computer, the internet and an email address to send your payment via Paypal. If you want to take full advantage of the Mondo Beyondo Workbook and the art downloads from Jen Lemen, you'll also want access to a color printer to print your downloads, but your best journal and a favorite pen will take you through the content just fine. Also on the must-have list...a willingness to experiment with a new point of view.


What if I have a small dream, instead of a grand one?

We believe that sometimes the biggest dreams are tiny, ordinary wishes that finally have the space to come true. Mondo Beyondo is for dreamers of all kinds--whether you want to backpack around the world or say yes once and for all to some small thing you thought could never be for you. The concepts you'll learn in this class apply to dreams of all shapes, significance and size.

Being willing to dream is what will make this class right for you.
