The Next Step

Tibetan dream yogis believe that it is possible to fully control your dreams.

You can dream about anything you choose.

However, being able to induce lucid dreams and control them are two very different skills.

The biggest obstacle for most novice lucid dreamers is to learn how to maintain lucidity without waking up.

They can recognize lucidity clues, utilize state tests, and conclude that they are dreaming.

But they cannot control waking up and falling back to non-lucid sleep.

The truth is, it takes practice and determination to refine your lucid dreaming skills.

Luckily, there are a few exercises that can speed up the process of mastering lucid dreaming.

Let us learn the specific techniques that will help you prevent premature awakening and increase your capacity to stay in the dream world longer.

Reading is the first step. Practice is the rest.

The rest of this lesson is in Mind, with practice tools, reminders and a journal that shows your progress.
