| Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming by Ballantine Books A Readable Field Guide to Lucid Dreaming |
The world of lucid dreaming is apparently scientifically respected, and for anybody interested, immensely fascinating.
This book offers a plethora of information about the science of dreaming, techniques for inducing lucid dreams, and the history of dream culture.
While you can read it cover to cover, it is somewhat more like a "Teach Yourself X in 30 Days" book: before proceeding beyond chapters 3 or 4, you should increase your ability to recall dreams to almost one per night. All information required to perform the task is given in the book, and I did have success using these techniques, but it is not necessarily readable like any fiction book.
Let me also say this: with lucid dreaming, whether its a website, a book, whatever, you cannot simply read of techniques and stay interested in the subject to have lucid dreams, you have to work. You'll need to practice dream recall techniques, train yourself to look for dream signs even in your waking life, and generally expect to work for weeks or months before becoming an apt lucid dreamer.
If the topic interests you and you're willing to put forth the little bits of effort in your days to accomplish this task, this is a great and highly authoritative book. |
| Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming by Ballantine Books Perfect in Every Way |
| Lucid dreaming is the ability to control one's dreams to fly to learn new things or to just be like neo in the matrix. Steven Laberge is scientific about how he presents lucid dreaming from the how of lucid dreaming to the why such as that it happens in the rem part of sleep. I read that one reviewer thought Steven Laberge was not spiritual enough well I believe in the spiritual part of lucid dreaming but really do you want a book on ideas or something straight to the point with sooooooooooo many techniques to begin lucid dreaming. Ive looked at other lucid dreaming books and most put a new spin on what this book has. If you want to lucid dream which with this book I was able to and it is as cool as they say it really is like real life you can see yourself and its so real this is the book for you. |
| Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming by Ballantine Books Thoroughly researched. Impartial. Immediately applicable. |
I've adopted the exercises in the book and am becoming lucid with increasing frequency, now up to one or two lucid dreams per week.
I think that's about the best compliment you can give a book with this objective. |
