controlling your dreams

[zoldos]

I don't think I've had a true "lucid" dream, but I've come pretty close at times. In my dreams sometimes I just go around doing "whatever I want". Cool!

While I have had vivid dreams & I’ve dreamt that I was dreaming, I cannot recall being in a lucid one & knowing it was just a dream & hence being able to control it. Are there tips & tricks to being able to do this?

Oh yes, there's a tonne of literature on it. The trick it to have some way to let yourself know you are dreaming. I read awhile ago about people wearing a sort of goggles and are aware that at a certain point when they are dreaming, a unique pattern will be displayed to indicate they are dreaming and allows them to have a conscious memory. Trippy!

zoldosI tried lucid dreaming for a bit....it actually worked, kinda. I really just wanted to fly in my dream, like superman type of flying. After a bit...i got to where i could sort of float in a particular direction, but it was always backwards, never could "steer" the way i wanted.

perform03hahaha Awesome! I float a lot in my dreams. Fly as well, maybe about 50-100 feet off the ground. Pretty cool!
