I flew the other night, that's right, I flew!! I was with some people in New York City, that I really didn't know all that well, and they were all getting on my nerves. So lifted my body up and flew above a palm tree and decided to go to Central Park. It was dark and I could not see that well, but it was cool for a while. I could feel the breeze as I was soaring in the air, but once I knew I was dreaming I woke up!! Man, it felt so real. I have been having a lot of dreams like that over the years, where I knew that I was dreaming and I seemed to be able to control the dream (for the most part). That was the first time I flew and in the excitement I woke up!! I am the Master of my dreams and don't know why. So I started asking other people if they could do this and they looked at me like I was crazy. Then I started reading about astral projections and lucid dreaming.

Try to concentrate on the lucidity of your dreams. You should be able to maneuver around. It is your own mind that you are inside, after all. You may be able to guide the dream, practice makes perfect. I have done this hundreds of times, but I dream vividly (without any drugs and alcohol,thank you) and can often shape my dreams. One thing that you can do is try to visualize a picturesque landscape before you sleep, picture your self there doing whatever it is you wish to do, and it should come to you in time. Happy dreaming, it's a beautiful place.

If you could control your dreams, what would you do? Grow wings and fly, talk to God, travel to ancient Rome, score the game winning goal (I have done that one), or talk to Patrick Swayze? Instead, we dream of showing up naked at work or falling or getting lost. But there's one type that offers the promise of control; It's lucid dreaming. I have been studying for the last 4 or 5 years or so and here are some tips. Lucid dreaming, like anything else, takes practice. I've done it plenty of times since 2005. All you have to do is realize that you are in a dream and not wake up (that second step is hardest)and then start controlling things. Enjoy the adventures. I will be back, with more tips for you, later.
