Thread: How did you find out about Lucid Dreaming?

While looking up Out-of-the-body experiences.

You know, I don't remember exactly, but I'm PRETTY sure I found out about them from doing online research/reading about dreams, back around 1995 or 1996.

AE forums, OOC Room, someone talked about being concious during dreams and controling them, went to read and get to know what it was called, got the term and thats it. Just wanted to know how it was called whatever I was doing for so long lol

Psych professor. :]

I first heard the term from the movie Vanilla Sky.

Bit of all them really, i was reading about AP (Astral Projection) AKA OBE (Outer body experiences) And i was also looking into a dream i had which led me to the AP website which lead me to the OBE websites which i then somehow started looking here, signed up, was impressed and nejoyed lucid dreaming since!, but also urmmm cant remember what i was gonna say lol

I was looking at the entry on sleep at Wikipedia, and on the way clicked on dreams when I realized quite suddenly that I hadn't remembered my dreams in years. From the entry on dreams, I followed the link to the main article on Lucid dreaming after becoming curious at the short summary.
