Some will say: in lucid dreams, you can fly, you can eat whatever you want, you can visit landscapes from your imagination, you can have the most extraordinary experiences… I believe those explanations are incomplete. The best answer would be: there’s nothing you can’t do!

Think it, imagine it,… do it!

That’s right! Explaining the potentials of lucid dreaming is this simple. If you can imagine it, it can be done. And what you use lucid dreaming for, it’s up to you. Some use it to study, others for healing, others even to rehearse a skill. Some people live the most amazing experiences, so amazing there are no words to describe it.

In fact, one of the things lucid dreamers know, is the hollowness of words – hollowness, because they are insufficient to transmit others their experiences. The only way to understand their experiences is by experiencing it yourself. And is there a better way to fully understand the potentials of dreaming than by dreaming?

(The Dreams Foundation has a very interesting article about some of the waking life applications of lucid dreaming here).
