Does anyone else see Lucid Dreaming as a hobby?

[InceptionDream]

Curious.

Part hobby, part self improvement, part just interesting... That is my opinion at least.

Part hobby, part self improvement, part just interesting... That is my opinion at least. Very similar to this. I see it as a hobby (The part where you're able to do whatever you want without consequences). As self improvement (Using Lucid Dreaming to get rid of phobias). And I'm interested in what else can be achieved using Lucid Dreaming.

Exactly what Bren said, I also see it as an escape from stress, and a world of anarchy, where you don't have to take shit from anyone, or listen to anyone, it's your world and your rules.

Its a hobby, but not a constant thing for me. I'm not even trying right now, too much to think about. I enjoy lucid dreaming because it's just awesome. Kind of a release from life, however short.

[Supernova]

In general, it;s more than a hobby.

[Kona]

I don't find it as a hobby. I find it the best thing in the world!

[dacher2]

No I don't, it's something I can't describe because I don't have a big poetic vocabulary

[Evolventity]

Depends on the person. I don't LD by default, so for me it's a hobby.

[NightSpy2]

Yea I'm quite interested in LD'ing and yea I would say its a hobby.

[Zephyrus]

Its a part time hobby, sometimes I can be bothered doing it, other times I lose motivation

[Elfygirl]

To me its a way to improve my spirituality

[Raspberry]

Yeah, but it's so awesome that I count it for more. I said to someone once that I thought of it as a hobby, and they looked at me like I was crazy and said "No one has ever told me that dreaming is a hobby for them " Their loss

More than a hobby It's a sanctuary for me. The one place where nobody can bother me. The one place where I am truly free, that is my mind. It's also a way to explore myself at the same time. I'm not too interested in most of these activities that people here do in their first LDs. I'm looking for a more deeper purpose.

I can see it as a hobby, it takes time and practice during your waking hours as well and you're trying to accomplish a goal. These things coupled with you enjoying the process can certainly define it as being a hobby.

[InceptionDream]

True.

[Cacophony]

I could see how lucid dreaming and making miniature airplanes correlates perfectly.

[zebrah]

Lucid dreaming is a hobby. Unless you're LaBerge then it's your career. Lucid dreaming isn't something most people get paid for. It's not something you need to do to survive. So I'd call it a hobby.

[woeisme]

Lucid dreaming is something that makes me want to go to sleep. Nights aren't boring anymore.

[theone1223]

Yes id agree with the above post, it gives me something to look forward to when i go to sleep at night. I wish i could practice it more often though =p

[Purebred]

I see it as a way to escape this world, but not only that. LD improves your understanding about everything. When I had my first 10 minutes LD experience I coudn't stop jumping around and enjoy my life. So LD for me: 1. Source of self understanding. 2. Place where I am free. 2. Source of intelligence. 4. Place where my dreams come true.

It's very fun but its not a hobby since I don't devote a whole load of my time just to dream.
