Recently i have been studying somthing called lucid dreaming, its basicall a state of mind aquired while asleep and dreaming that allows you to do anything in your dreams.

anyways..

I found this very interesting so i decided to start trying it, it is actually very difficult and i havent been scussesful so far. apparently its normal to fail many times before egtting the hang of it..

if you want to know anything else about lucid dreaming post questions here.

or just post your thoughts.


"I iz back.... again.... hah!"

You can somewhat control your dreams by controlling your thoughts while being awake. Try it sometime, it's kinda fun!

yea, if you think about teh same thing every hour of the day, thats all that gets dumped into your subconcious, and its more likely to have a dream about it.

this is why people that have nightmares constantly... have them constantly, lol, they think about it all day and just dread the time when they have to sleep.

You mean, like, lucid dreaming can f me up medically? I just have them normally, without trying, so I hope not, 'cause that means I gotta stop dreaming. And that means I gotta stop sleeping.

I once had a dream I was asleep. Surprisingly, it came true!
Yes, indeed. That is, until I woke up...


Oh, it's been a while since I used that one!

Sometimes this "lucid dreaming" thing gets too literal. When I try to fly in a dream, reality kicks in and I don't get more than a few feet off the ground. I hate being logical. X_x

Lucid dreaming! That's what it's called! Oh thank you! I've been trying to figure that out since I had a dream like that years ago. It was something about not completing an assignment for school and I was so worried. In the dream, I knew I was dreaming (somehow) and I was "experimenting," if you will, the many outcomes of the situation. I would open my water bottle and spill it on the teacher when she asked for my work, or I would flip out and curse her to her face, and many other good ideas you can only dream of doing.


Lucid dreaming, that's what it is!

Here's one I just had...

I was standing in a empty room, and I was searching around for everyone that I knew, I just kept looking around, and never found anyone. I then break down into crying, and I look at my hands, and their covered in blood, I look around the room, and all my friends are gored, and maimed... I then look directly infront of me, and I see a mirror, and I see myself, but it wasn't me... I was all... Demented looking, I was smiling, and laughing, covered in blood, and had long hair... Then I woke up, and my girlfriend said I was screaming in my sleep, and crying...

(Think some one could interpret that for me?)

I can lucid dream, while not on command but about once a week. Has anyone here ever been on LD4all? It's a lucid dreaming forum with a great community!
