About this listen

Some of the greatest of life’s adventures can happen while you’re sound asleep. That’s the promise of lucid dreaming, which is the ability to alter your own dream reality any way you like simply by being aware of the fact that you’re dreaming while you’re in the midst of a dream. There is a range of techniques anyone can learn to become a lucid dreamer - and this audiobook provides all the instruction you need to get started. But B. Alan Wallace also shows how to take the experience of lucid dreaming beyond entertainment to use it to heighten creativity, to solve problems, and to increase self-knowledge. He then goes a step further: moving on to the methods of Tibetan Buddhist dream yoga for using your lucid dreams to attain the profoundest kind of insight.

Very good dream philosophy

B. Alan Wallace is a great Buddhist philosopher with an extensive knowledge of lucid dreaming and dream yoga which will help your practice along nicely if you employ some of the many exercises discussed in this book.

Another great facet of this book is its analysis of materialist science and how limited it is when tackling the issues of consciousness and dreaming.

I listened to this book once whilst awake, and I now fall asleep to it every night with a timer on as a method of encouraging lucidity.

Great narration by Tom Pile.

Thought provoking

This book wasn't quite what I expected but was informative, simulating, and thought provoking. I've come away with a better understanding of dreams and how I can integrate them into my daily life. I definitely recommend listening.

Interesting and hopefully useful

The prospect of learning to dream lucidly to the level described in this book is exciting. The techniques described are interesting, although there is a lot of Buddhist doctrine including which seems irrelevant for learning to dream lucidly. I found it interesting though.
I don’t know yet how well the techniques work as I expected it will take some time.

Simply astounding.

Pull the rug from under your reality.
Begin to see the nature of the mind and the illusionary nature of your existence.
I have had my first experiences of being lucid and able to exert some control over my dreams after listening to this book
Really really impressed

Loved it till and especially to the end

Great book a bit hard to start as it tries to teach meditation. But as you go along, it becomes more and more interesting

A really interesting book on dream lucidity

I have listened to this book a couple of times now, and I have found it to be quite insightful. I have went to sleep while listening to this book and find that I have been hearing it in my sleep and found that I am able to comprehend what I’m hearing while I’m sleeping and find it both inspiring and interesting.
For people interested in experimental psychology or lucid dreaming then I would recommend this book.

Beautiful book and lecture, healing & useful

I very much enjoyed listening to this book, it is informative, but I mostly found the whole experience very healing and harmonious, like a high vibrations and energies bath (the narration was very helpful in this). I recommend taking your time with it, savour it and let it sink in, as well as practicing the techniques which might be new. It is not a book for the little mind so much, but for the higher mind, soul and spirit.
