Going through all the alt.*'s, I noticed a neat string, one on lucid
dreaming. Now, I had noticed all the people I know who are lucid
dreamers (myself included) used to have a LOT of nightmares... I'd like
to get some info on this. it's my opinion that lucid dreaming is a
self-defense mechanism against nightmares... (YES one DOES need a
defense
mechanism... my nightmares sometimes got so bad that I tried to stop
sleeping when I was 10, I do that now, but that's different!)

well, you could read the alt.dreams.lucid faq (but then why is this
posted
here in alt.sf4m ) anyway, putting it very simply (and I'm not
an expert on this, I just read the faq a year or so ago.... :)
Lucid dreaming is when you are dreaming (duh) and you realize that
you are dreaming. If you get good at it, you can have this awareness
and control the dream, and not wake up right away. Or at least that
is what I've read :)

Well, I don't have the least idea what you're talking about. Define
what a lucid dream first.

Hmm. The term is familiar - I've heard it here and there. Refresh my
memory,
what exactly is 'lucid dreaming'?
