Global Dream Village

Your Facilitators in the Global Dream Village

Dr. Tayria Ward

Tayria Ward, Ph.D., has worked intensively with her own and other peoples’ dreams for more than 40 years, and for nearly 20 years has been an avid student of indigenous ways of knowing and being. In 2004, she established Bridging Worlds, a center for working with individuals and groups to bridge the waking mind with the dreaming mind, the domesticated self with the indigenous self, culture with nature, the visible with the invisible, the conscious with the unconscious.

Presently she has a private practice specializing in dream analysis in Asheville, North Carolina, where she works with clients in person, by Skype and by telephone. She also offers dream groups, workshops, retreats and lectures. She has a Ph.D. in Depth Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute. Previously she was a minister in an interfaith organization for 20 years, a professor at undergraduate and graduate levels, and owner of a retreat center in the remote mountains of Western North Carolina where she conducted regular retreats and vision quests.

Jocelyn Mercado

Jocelyn Mercado is a spiritual guide for the modern world, transformational life & business coach, writer, and environmentalist. She has been a student & practitioner of indigenous wisdom and earth-based spirituality for over 9 years.

Jocelyn created Sacred Planet as a global community of people who are ready to un-learn all of the rules & regulations of modern mainstream society which no longer serve our highest good, so that we can reconnect with nature, with joy, and with the TRUTHS that we hold deep within our hearts.

She says it’s no mistake that at the same time as we are witnessing the systems & structures of the old “modern” world crumbling around us, we’re collectively realizing there’s an amazing opportunity at this momentous time in history to rise up together & create something entirely new that the world has never seen before.

Her mission is to guide you to courageously break free from everything that holds you back. Her coaching programs, events, and online programs are designed to awaken your deepest awareness to ways that you can heal yourself, and at the same time, heal the Earth.

Tayria and Jocelyn joyfully co-create with Source to provide you with beautiful experiential opportunities such as Awakening the Ancient Ways and the Global Dreaming Symposium. In all of their work, they seek to create a positive energetic shift to facilitate the personal and collective evolution so deeply needed at this time on planet Earth.
