Okay, so a few months ago I posted on here that I would be starting lucid dreaming with tibetan dream yoga and keep you all informed on my progress with it. |

hey that's great! tibetan dream yoga is the core of my dreaming practice - i've been studying tibetan buddhism for a few years so it was only natural that i began applying it specifically to LDs. |

I agree about the Western views on the subject. And thanks for the title. Added to my booklist! |

I don't even purposely wake myself up in the mornings. I just naturally wake up about 2 hours from the time my alarm clock is set to go off, then I lay completely still and don't move a MUSCLE. I focus on my third eye and create the thoughts and feelings I have while lucid in a dream and the next thing I know I am in the dream fully conscious. |

No, I don't do WBTB. If you don't move a muscle when you wake up, you can alert your mind enough to stay awake while you keep your body on the verge of sleep so it's an instant WILD or MILD with no effort. |

I'm always on and off with Dream Yoga. When I am actively practicing, I also get several lucid dreams a week. It does take a small amount of attention during the day, which sometimes makes it inconvenient. If I have to keep a lot of other stuff on my mind (like learning a lot of new information, or heavy problem solving), I can't really do it. |
|
It does take a lot of focus to remind yourself that you really are dreaming, but it pays off when you go to bed. Anyways, I am just way too busy with stuff that it's hard to just zone out and think like that. Either I am driving in insane traffic, taking notes rapidly in class, lifting weights or sprinting (takes mind over matter a lot) or playing a band practice or an actual performance. |

i thought it was awesome maybe because i've studied tibetan culture, but yeah, some people think it's odd or whatever. after you get to the practice itself you might be more interested - the chapter entitled "lucidity" is kinda cool, like the uses of LDs and such. |

I did a google search for "dream yoga forum" and found zero forums or even forum subsections on the matter. Would be cool to talk to a dream yoga master |

It definitely would be cool to talk to a dream yoga master, but I am definitely no master... yet. ;] |

found this series of videos on tibetan dream yoga: |

I think the guy in those videos is a little confused. I wonder if he's on this site? |

How do you use tibetan dream yoga when walking in the street? |
