Q. |
I sometimes wake up tired in the morning
after using the series. Why? |
|
|
A. |
However subtle it might seem, you are
making an effort to obtain lucidity. This might be considered
"working" when you are normally passive. Try listening to the
exercises at another time of the day. |
|
|
Q. |
I have only achieve nominal success with
the lucid dreaming. Any suggestions? |
|
|
A. |
Practice and intention are key.
Keep at it. The process takes a little longer for some but with
persistence you can overcome any barriers you are experiencing.
*Be gentle with the process, lower your expectations and focus on the
results you have achieved. |

|
Q. |
Is lucid dreaming the same as an Out of
Body Experience? |
|
|
A. |
While some equate the two, Robert Monroe
considered them to be quite different. OBEs often take place
while one is moving into sleep with consciousness never being lost.
Lucid dreaming allows for the mind to lose awareness of its
surroundings when moving into sleep. Conscious awareness
(lucidity) is regained when the dream is in progress. OBEs often
follow a linear sequence of events taking place in current time/space.
Dreams are frequently nonlinear or diffuse in nature, moving from
image to image. |

|
Q. |
I don't dream. Can the Lucid
Dreaming Series help me? |
|
|
A. |
Yes. It is more likely that you are
simply not able to remember your dreams. The Lucid Dreaming
Series may introduce you to another world of experiences by allowing
you to recall your dreams. |
|
|
Q. |
I am achieving lucidity but I can't
maintain it for long. Any recommendations? |
|
|
A. |
The excitement of achieving a lucid dream
awakens some people. Conversely, others have a tendency to fall
asleep after a short period of lucidity. In either event,
mastering lucid dreaming takes practice. You may wish to work
with Tape 1 again to reinforce the idea of becoming lucid during the
dream. Be sure to focus your intention on maintaining lucidity
during your dream. |
|
|
Q. |
I have been achieving great success with
lucid dreaming. Should I continue to use the DVD? |
|
|
A. |
The DVD is designed as
a training tool.
After you have become successful in lucid dreaming you may continue to
use the DVD, or you may rely on your intention for continued
results. |
|
| Final Notes:
Lucid dreaming provides a unique opportunity for individuals to
benefit from states of expanded awareness during times we are not
normally conscious. It is widely considered among research
professionals that some of our thoughts, fears and desires await a
form of release or subconscious processing during the dream state.
For many, conscious interaction during the dream state can bring about
dramatic life changes. It is easy to appreciate why the art of
lucid dreaming has been pursued for thousands of years as a means to
access the subconscious mind. In addition, lucid dreaming can be
fun. Enjoy the experience of lucid dreaming. Good night.
