If you've ever consulted with a dream counselor, you may have asked (or heard of) Lucid Dreaming. Some people interested in their dream time wonder if they can really have a lucid dream. Other people express confusion and are almost afraid to ask about inducing lucid dreams. But it's not scary, or even confusing.

One of the great things about Lucid Dreaming is that you can get inside your dream and have a great time! Everything is possible, and the best part is that you can't get hurt! Basically when you have a lucid dream, you have a conscious awareness that you are dreaming and can enter into the dream whenever you want. Since you are 'conscious' you should be able to remember all the fun you had.

As soon as you get good at having a lucid dream, you can start to experiment getting inside your dreams.

When you're not so tired, you have more control over what you will do when you become lucid. And that's where the fun comes in!
