Thread: A Positive aspect of lucid dreaming

This may seem obvious to you all, but until I experienced it, I didn't really appreciate it. Yesterday I wrenched my back pretty good...something I do every couple years. I was unable to stand up erect as the pain and muscle cramping was too severe. It is not fun shuffling around bent over. By the way, I went to the Chiropractor today and am somewhat better...2 more days of therapy should fix me up 90 % and will likely be normal a few days later. But last night i had a hard time finding a comfortable enough position to sleep in. But finally did. Then I had a brief lucid dream. I was walking in my dream when I realized I was dreaming. I then recalled I was in pain (when standing) and unable to walk erect in RL. But I took note of the fact I was walking erect and pain free. Really studied that! It felt GREAT.

Hey, this ain't flying, I know, which I have done many times in LDs. But somehow it was even more impactful realizing I could enjoy walking freely and easily around in spite of the reality of my condition. Imagine what a person who is physically challenged in some way must experience? Any others out there with similar experiences?
