Your dreams are speaking. Learn to listen.
A companion for catching your dreams, meeting the figures within them, and steadying the watching mind. An ancient practice, reimagined.
Invite-only beta · iPhone, Android and the web · For adults 18 and over
Every night, your dreaming mind stages a drama for an audience of one.
And every morning it dissolves. The patterns that quietly run your days were written somewhere you have never been invited: in dreams, in moods that arrive like weather, in the figures who keep returning. Vala is the door to that place, and a steady hand once you are through it.
Six ways to meet yourself.
Catch every dream
Write it down the moment you wake. A short conversation helps you gather the details, and Vala keeps track of the figures, places and themes that return across months.
Read it three ways
Each dream side by side through Freud's classical reading, Jung's depth psychology and Tibetan dream yoga. Perspectives to weigh against your own sense of the dream, with a plain-language glossary for every term.
See your dreams
Render a dream as an image in the style you choose, or as a short film you can watch again.
Meet the figures within
Talk with the figures of your dreams in written dialogue, give each one a portrait, and seat your whole cast at the Round Table. A library of 102 archetypes from 20 traditions helps you recognise who you are meeting.
Steady the watching mind
A meditation timer with bells and ambient sound, guidance in the Himalayan tradition, and a practice flame that keeps count of your days.
Share with other dreamers
On Home, share a dream with everyone or only close friends, follow other dreamers and talk in private messages. Everything shared is reviewed for safety before it appears.
A breath you can watch.
The meditation dial glows with your breath, expanding on the inhale and softening on the release. A practice flame keeps count of your days and forgives the one you miss. A light to return to, in the Himalayan tradition of the Swami Rama lineage.
A private place for the inner life.
Your journal is private to your account and encrypted at rest. A dream reaches Home only when you share it, and you choose who sees it. Export everything, or delete your account and all of it, whenever you like.
Three minutes a morning.
Write your dream
Half-awake is perfect. Jot down what you remember, and a few gentle questions bring back the rest.
Explore & interpret
Read it through the three traditions, render it as an image or a film, or talk with who appeared.
Return to the pattern
Over weeks, the recurring figures and themes rise to the surface, and so do you.
