First Dream is quiet refusal.

INVITATION

A training for mind-first fitness.

Short drills. Real scenes. Clean mind-first moves.

Choose to act on a living theory — see We The Dreamer — and test it in motion. Widen the mind-scape, see life from a mind-first lens, and keep only what measurably lowers heat and improves repair.

Hands-on, eyes-open training in plain language. Short visualizations, quick reps, and drills you can run anywhere.

Ways to Train.

  • Martin Lenclos speaking to the camera for his video series

    Video — Series on Social

    Beginner-friendly micro-lessons on the First Dream lens: short visualizations and plain-language reps to loosen rigid identity, relate more skillfully, and act from clearer perception.

  • The First Dream walkshop takes place at street corners and cafés. A teacher is surrounded by students.

    Walkshops — Training in the Wild

    Guided city walks that turn sidewalks into studios. We train attention, practice co-dreaming in live scenes, and end with a rapid repair drill. Bring a notebook; leave with one clean move.

  • A group is meeting for a mind training session.

    Studio Sessions — Indoor Practice

    Small-group mind-fitness class (not a workout) with timed reps, cue cards, and debriefs. We refine stance, run drills, and map personal triggers to specific protocols—from state reset to trait retuning.

  • Salon — Philosophy & Tasting

    Salon-style gatherings—conversation, philosophy, books, films, and tasting. We explore the case for a consciousness-first world, its practical implications, and how a little discipline brings it to life.

WHAT FIRST DREAM TRAINS

First Dream shifts you from a world
happening to me

to a scene
arising in awareness.

You work from the one-field view: each moment is met as if it appears inside a single shared field, which lowers heat and makes the next clean step obvious.

You’re no longer a small self wrestling a hostile outside. You’re the clear observer inside a live scene—roles, traits, décor included—free to act with precision.

The world doesn’t vanish; your posture changes.

People (including you) are met as expressions within a shared dream of separation. From here you can wake a notch and move cleanly.

Calm Without Retreat

Because the day really does bite back. Identities fracture, feeds reward spikes, and institutions feel captured. Trying to “make a dent” can feel impossible. In that climate, choosing First Dream is radical because it refuses the default script: it drops heat without dropping responsibility.

First Dream isn’t fantasy or escape. It’s the discipline of how you perceive while life stays messy: act as if the moment arises in one shared field, wake a notch inside the scene, widen your view, soften attention, take the next clean step.

Duties stay intact—apologize, set boundaries, pay bills, see doctors. What First Dream attacks is narrow: the reflex that makes enemies, the guilt that freezes action, and the superstition that the world causes your mind. That’s why it’s radical: it’s a refusal to feed the spike economy and a commitment to act from steadiness.

*ABOUT THIS EXPERIMENT

The Dreamer Project (including First Dream, We The Dreamer, and the Practice Library) explores a consciousness-first worldview through creative and phenomenological means. This work is experimental by design. It makes no claims of scientific proof or therapeutic efficacy. No current evidence confirms or denies that consciousness is fundamental, or that these practices produce measurable benefits.

Participation is voluntary and self-directed; challenging reflections are possible—that risk is part of the inquiry. If you’re navigating mental-health concerns, please seek guidance from a qualified professional. This is offered for educational and philosophical exploration—a field test in perception, not a path of belief.
