Thread: how awesome is flying?

Bah it's boring. What kind of a lunatic would want to feel the extasy of being free from boundaries, gravity; and in a spiritual sense, yourself?

nice choice of words there... I personally enjoy flying because its... wait. i don't know why though... actually i think it's clunky, unreliable and overrated. sorry but thats my opinion.

Actually I was being sarcastic.
I love flying.

I'm always reading about how flying is the #1 activity associated/done with lucid dreaming. It's not hard to figure out why!

Now that I have more LD experience it's actually not my favorite thing to do. But you can bet the very first thing I decided to do in my very first lucid was to fly!

me also , i jumped and fell

Flying is fun when you find what tecnique works for you

Sex is tied with flying on my favorite things to do in an LD

(last night i had a really long chained dream 'with sex')

FTW

flying is cool, but you can do so much more through interactions with objects when on the ground.

for me flying iz easy as walking/running. I can fly in any technique and it does not pose a challenge

well you are lucky

I used to be able to fly down the street a few feet off the ground by grabbing my legs up to my chest and leaning backwards.

Now i only fly like 10 feet, i need to learn to do that again

It was fun... twice. Now that I taught my self to shoot things out of my hands, which is fun, to explore. Exploring is amazing.

I need to learn how to fly without making it the only thing I do in the dream.

I'd love to fly, but I'd change it up a bit. Like, make fire come out of my heels while making a rocket sound. And also when I skim super close the ocean, I'd make the waves fly up because of my super sonic speeds.

chea bro!

I LOVE flying. I did it a few times in normal dreams and loved it so much that I told myself that flying is the first thing to do in a lucid dream.
I had only 3 lds so far, but in every dream I immediately jumped into the air and flew around. And I still love it.

oh, were you not able to fly? you should keep at it till you get it, its definetally worth it.

I love to fly!

However, i havent fully grasped it.

last I night i flew for the first time in a lucid dream - i my previous 5 LD's I have always become lucid inside - never making it outside to actually fly - as have been my number one priority to do.
Then last night I became lucid outside, and almost instantly I lifted of the ground and the visuals were marvelous. I felt tingling feeling in my stomach and just blasted upwards. I was approached by some unmanned UFO's - and the whole scenery was just awesome... I'm going for another flight this night

When we are dreaming we are out of touch with our physical bodies and consequently liberated from the physical constraints imposed by waking perception. Thus, no awkward sensory facts are present to limit our movement in mental space, and we are free to move out of the spatial orentation defined by "being in the (physical) body".

i feel so jelous

Hi i´m new to this Forum, im studying Lucid Dreaming since about 4 Weeks with the book: Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming by Stephen LaBerge

I recently got my first Real LD, it took about 15 Seconds then some stupid Car in the real World "honk" and i woke up...the cool thing was that i was on vacation and saw Rome (Italy) one Day earlier...so in my lucid Dream i Flyed over Rome it was very very verry Cool...i did never other stuff so i think flying i pretty awesome =

i remember when i was near lucid and i was flying, it was well difficult to control , i ended up falling into a river and i couldnt swim..

flying in dreams is properly overated on its on BUT

flying while carrying a DC or anything else, shud be interesting

I fly even in my non-lucid dreams, and I love it when I can do it. When they are lucid, sometimes I don't get very high or far but I still try it. I actually can't fall in dreams; I just land on the ground no matter how high I was, whether my dreams are lucid or not. I frequently leap off roofs or out windows for this reason.

And speaking of swimming, I can always breathe underwater too. That rules. :]
