I wonder who else had lucid dreams. I had them two times, I tell you it was even better than shroom trips. We should find a drug that induces lucid dreaming! An-e-one know about it?

KOPELANDIAA, that's exactly right. I experienced the same thing. Actually, I experienced about 6 or 7 SEPERATE lucid dreams in the same night, along with a few entranced states between sleep and awakening that consisted of very intricate purple and green brick wall patterns, ignited by some bright circular spiral of energy. There were strange spinning, geometric flower shaped patterns intertwined in this wall, and I can't for the life of me remember where exactly in my consciousness this happened.
I would definately agree salvia is an efficient tool when it comes to lucid dreaming, among many other things of course.

Stephen LaBarge, the father of lucid dreaming, was given a grant from NASA to produce a hallucinogen that would facilitate LD's. After much research he came to the conclusion that it's all about practice and repetition. Keeping a schedule and a dream log is your best bet.
I just went on the patch to quit smoking, it says on the box to remove before sleep if you get vivid dreams, so i'm like shit, i'll slap two of 'em on. I didn't but i had quite an amazing dream this morning. I was in a room full of people(in my dream) that were also dreaming and we had a long conversation about it. Usually if you bring up dreaming the character will deny it or change the subject. Bird's LD site is one of my favorites....keep reading up on it, it can change your life.

Have any of you ever heard of 'Dream Herb'? It's a powerful dream inducing entheogen. It invokes lucid dreams and makes them easy to recall...

According to the Erowid vault, it's been PROVEN to induce Lucid Dreaming...

LOL, yes that's true Kopelandia from what I've read of others reports it is supposed to be vile! However, I'm not that frequent a dreamer and would do anything to increase the frequency of my dreams, even perhaps consume Calea... Have you experienced Dream Herb Kope? Can you post methods of consumption and results if you have and don't mind doing so? Thanks!

The best way to have more lucid dreams is to slow down a little during the day. Most people use up all thier energy during the day by running around and doing things that aren't necessary. This makes it hard to remember or to even have dreams. If you cut out the crap and conserve some mental energy, it's much easier to have and maintain lucid dreams. That's my experience with it anyway, it could be different for every person out there.

I have noticed that since quitting marijuana, my dreams are extremely crisp and I always seem to remember at least one of them when I wake.

GAG--ACKKK! Stuff is the worst tasting stuff on the planet. Take the worst taste that you have ever experienced and make it 1000x worse. Ok, maybe I am exaggerating, but it really is awful stuff.
I am not much of a lucid dreamer, however calea (in gelcaps, can't drink the shit in a tea) helped make my dreams 'clearer' and more real. I could remember them better when I woke up. Being a restless sleeper, waking up many times every night, I would awaken during these dreams in quite a confused state. The dreams really seemed real when I was experiencing them.
There seems to be some synergy between calea and marijuana as well.

I also found this book for $13 including shipping (if you have an amazon.com account you can get a $10 discount on it for some reason right now) It's a pretty good book too,I read an excerpt and it sounds pretty good >>"Lucid Dreams in 30 days"<<

The KEY to lucid dreaming is awareness in waking life. 2 nites ago I had a very nice LD. I didn't even expect it, but trace it back to less than 5 minutes of complete awareness earlier that day. You kind of have to sense everything around you.
Drugs and LD's don't compare.
Oh, and the best way for me to stay lucid is to wiggle my eyes around. It helps keep you in REM sleep.
Have fun with it guys

Not really lucid dreaming, but ever since I started doing shrooms I sometimes dream that mushrooms are growing in my hair. It's really unpleasant and makes me feel dirty!

Melatonin and b-6 work for me, not so much in the lucid department but more so in the vividness...I also find that not smoking pot helps ton's for me as well....I mean I don't smoke reefer while i'm sleeping, I meant just not smoking it..I quit again so hopefully i'm in for some good dream's...

Hey HansMoleman, Are you referring to valarian root? I'm about to start taking that every night in gelcaps. I'm a mega-insomniac, and my sister (who's a nurse), said that would help. She told me to hold off till I'm off of all the other medications I'm taking though. I might as well ask while I'm here, does anyone know if valarian root will interfere with biaxin, dalacin, hydroxyzine, or good old reactine?

Wow I just looked it up on google... A dream where you know you're dreaming! That's fucking awesome! I'd fucking jjump off a cliff or something fucking awesome, or rape someone (hehe couldn't hurt) who's really hot. Imagine the possibilities!

I had a lucid dream a few mornings ago. The day before I watched a show on PBS about lucid dreaming. I think if you wake up in the morning and then go back to sleep you have a higher chance of waking into a dream.

Cutting back on weed helps, but practicing dreaming and trying to stay very concious of your dreams helps. If I repeatedly think to myself, like a mantra, as I'm going to sleep, "Sleep.... Dream....." I usually am more likely to remember dreams. If you have lucid dreaming on your mind as you fall asleep, it should help.

A tip I heard was to train yourself in thinking every 5 minutes or so; How did I come here and why? If you're dreaming you can't recall that, then you know you're dreaming and then you can take control over the dream. But often when people realise they are lucid they will get so excited that they'll wake up. After I finish my exams I'm going to try and keep a dreamlog. Keeping a dreamlog will train you to remember dreams. Cause why be lucid if you can't remember it. I might be lucid every night. I can recall a few lucid dreams, this happens maybe once or twice a year. I usually try to lift off and fly. That's a really intense, scary and great feeling.

I have the blessing and the curse of lucid dreaming. I experience it 2 or 3 nights a week. It is the most bizarre sensation imaginable to wake up, realize you have been dreaming, and go back to sleep while slipping back into the same dream. The incredible thing is that if you practice, you can control the direction of your dreams. You can go back to the same dream, but change the landscape or characters or situation.
Lucid dreaming is the coolest thing. Keep a diary of your dreams if you are a lucid dreamer. I prefer to interperate my own dreams but you should check out the dream site in the post above if you want to learn some guidelines.
Sweet Dreams, zzzzz
