Thread: The levels of lucidity.

Since for "Who I Am", periods of intense emotional stress seem to be the main trigger for high level lucid dreams, there is a very high price to pay for those experiences,... divorce, raising troubled teens and young adults, physical aging, death of loved ones, marital stress, etc.. There seems to be a trade off.

Who in their right mind would seek out intense emotional stress for the experience of high level lucid dreams? Not me!

I've often wondered if the high level lucid dreams and dreams in general aren't some kind of natural defense or healing mechanisms. They have helped me get through rough times, by giving me another perspective on life and questioning what is real and unreal,... what is temporal and what is eternal.

It's not a game for children, for amusement... or to be taken lightly.
