Thread: My first post here - What lucid dreaming means to me

Welcome to DV, Devoney! While Phased is not on staff, however as you just found out we have very nice and helpful members and a lot of people who are glad to help eachother, whether they are on staff or not. If you are curious about who is on staff here, here is the list Show Groups - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views. I am a dream guide, which means that part of my role is to welcome newcomers and to help you find something or try to help answer questions whenever I can. Of course, anyone who is a member is welcome to be helpful in similar ways.

Once again, welcome to the forum. Feel free to let me know if you need any help, and if I can help, I will be glad to, and if I cannot, perhaps I can help direct you to someone or a part of the forum that can.

Wow another friendly message. Thank you for the welcoming and the list of staff people. I see there aren't many dream guides. What defines your role? Does your role engage 'dream decoding' as well? I just found several other LD induction techniques that got my interest. I am going to try one tonight (and upcoming nights).
I feels so good 'to be'among fellow travelers. Not many people around me (family, friends, colleges) share the experience of LD, let alone other open minded topics.

I once heard/read "Da vinci never slept, he said it was a waiste of time", googling on similar phrases yield some websites about people wondering whether he said something like that.

I can understand he never 'slept', he was brilliant, he probably LD and OOBE a lot himself, and that certainly ain't sleeping!. I try to twist the habit of saying "i'm going to sleep" into something like "i'm going to let my body rest" or similar phrases.

Aiming for lucidity 24h per day!
