James – Is this for real or are you making it up? It does make some sense. Trying this next time I can’t sleep. Bri says he can lucid dream. Weird stuff man.

This started happening to me when i was young and experiencing insomnia. I used a technique that was taught to children for pain management and it goes like this. Lie still, eyes closed and imagine that each of your body parts is assigned a switch, when you flip the switch a light goes from green to red and that body part is now asleep, you cannot move it after the switch is flipped unless you flip the switch back. repeat steps starting with each toe on each leg and move up the body until you get to your scalp. I use this sparingly any more, mainly because I hate lucid dreaming, it scares the crap outta me. But now and then I will do it and it almost always puts me in that state.

Exactly the same as Randy – I learned how to recognise when I’m dreaming and once I’ve sussed that out, can manipulate it and do what I like. Didn’t really master it until I was in my late teens / early twenties but more often than not, I’ll become aware I’m only dreaming and enjoy turning things to my advantage.

I am a lucid dreamer, but what I read here makes me laugh. The lucidity I experience came from first being able to recognize that a dream is a dream. Have you ever been aware that you are dreaming? Then, you can manipulate the dream factors. I have never been able to “create” a dream, but I “control” many elements. I don’t have nightmares anymore, because I’ve learned to recognize them and change the factors in my favor. The article quoted above seems crazy to me. Instead, try to recognize common elements in repetitious dreams. If you can figure out your are dreaming, you can easily control the dream.
