And when I say lucid dream, I say waking up upon realizing you are in a dream. I can't imagine how wonderful it will be once I can actually have them frequently with some element of control! Not to mention introspection, and communicating with your own subconscious just sounds way cool

Plus I have heard that it is a good way to practice things in real life. If I can spend my dreams rehearsing for things (like my upcoming presentation for class), that would be a very good way to spend the 6+ hours I spend asleep (i realize this probably needs to change to actually achieve LDing often)
Great answer! Cant wait for more. Ive heard something about ecstatic after effects but some of what you said I had not thought of.
