Stephen LaBerge, Howard Rheingold
A practical guide to dreaming consciously.
“The events you experience while asleep and dreaming produce effects on your brain much the same as if you were to experience the corresponding events while awake”
The way we perceive reality is governed by the input and interpretation of our senses; what we see, hear, smell, taste, and touch. But while dreaming the only inputs come from our own brains. Which is to say that when we dream, we create our reality. But can we control it? This is what Exploring The World of Lucid Dreaming aims to demonstrate. With practical explanations of techniques to induce lucid dreaming authors Stephen LaBerge and Howard Rheingold offer a guide map to building your own dream world.
