I dreamt of dreaming....

Eek! I woke this morning and realised that I'd been dreaming within my dream. And within the innermost dream I was being taught about dreaming....I was 'shown' a list of four 'reasons for remembering dreams'. They were labelled a) to d) and reason a) said something like 'to enhance access to otherworlds' whatever that means. I got very excited about this (within my innermost dream) and woke up, into my regular dream. Someone else was there, and I told them about it and about my regret at waking up before reading the other reasons. It was bizarre. I've been practising the LD techniques for about 2 weeks now (including keeping a dream diary, which I've done for ages) and this is my strangest experience so far. Anyone else dreamt of dreaming?! Please share

Yeah it happens...especially when starting to lucid dream, you are all excited about what can be done in dreams, keep it up!

Thanks I've just been trying to explain my dream to someone else and got all confused... "I was dreaming....in my dream....about dreaming..." hehe! It's given me a boost and I'm determined to get further.

argghhh it happens to me all the time. My last lucid dream was like a LD in a dream. I dont why but I guess when you are telling someone your dream in your dream it gives the illusion thats its not a regular dream but a dream in a dream which makes it feel less vivid when you wake up. i was like 'rip off!!!' and the dream was kinda cool. For me it constantly happens when i have a lucid dream, its not a false awakening, but a new scene suddenly emerges and im telling someone my dream even though im still dreaming.
