Does lucid dreaming enhance your sense of well-being and happiness? If so, then how? Is it because the enjoyment of the experience carries over into waking life? Or perhaps sometimes (per the depth psychology models re: dream interpretation) by resolving internal emotional conflicts?

Do you feel you know yourself better by paying attention to, and even controlling, your dreams? (And is that a good thing?) Do "shadow contents" (the things that scare or otherwise disturb you) pop up, so that with your lucidity you're able to deal with and resolve them?

What problems do you think people can overcome by learning lucid dreaming? Can they repair low self-esteem? Resolve a longstanding grief issue? Learn to be more calm if they’re generally anxious persons?

Does it happen too infrequently to be therapeutically valuable? Is it, in the end, just some good fun?

Thanks!
