About this audiobook

Imagine being able to fly. Walk through walls. Shape-shift. Breathe underwater. Conjure loved ones-or total strangers-out of thin air. Imagine experiencing your nighttime dreams with the same awareness you possess right now-fully functioning memory, imagination, and self-awareness. Imagine being able to use this power to be more creative, solve problems, and discover a deep sense of well-being.This is lucid dreaming-the ability to know you are dreaming while you are in a dream, and then consciously explore and change the elements of the dream. A Field Guide to Lucid Dreaming shows exactly how to do it. Written by three avid, experienced lucid dreamers, this manual for the dream world takes the reader from step one-learning how to reconnect with his or her dreams- through the myriad possibilities of what can happen once the dreamer is lucid and an accomplished oneironaut (a word that comes from the Greek oneira, meaning dreams, and nautis, meaning sailor).Readers will learn about the powerful REM sleep stage-a window into lucid dreams. Improve dream recall by keeping a journal. The importance of reality checks, such as “The Finger”-during the day, try to pass your finger through your palm; then, when you actually do it successfully, you'll know that you're dreaming. And once you become lucid, how to make the most of it. Every time you dream, you are washing up on the shores of your own inner landscape. Learn to explore a strange and thrilling world with A Field Guide to Lucid Dreaming.

Ratings and reviews

Love lots with the author of this book. Now I realized I had lucid dreams many times happened to my life.. Before I don't have any idea what is the lucid dreams really means.. But now I knew it.. One of my lucid dreams that I will never forget is I saw my mother and father inside my dreams and actually they already dead in reality year ago. I was thinking and said "are are you here I thought you dead. I thought you're gone.. Is that true?? You're alive??" And I became so happy.. And my father replied was "who said we're dead and gone.. We are always here.." then suddenly I woke up and feel warm feeling to hear those messages. Now I always feel my father and mother is always there for me although they now both in heaven.

it's quite nostalgic
