Hello all. This seems like quite a nice and supportive community, so i thought i'd give it a go.

I've been interested in lucid dreaming for a number of years. To cut a long story short i weaved my way into it from the Castaneda books. I began keeping a dream journal and practising reality checks to little avail. I ended up having a couple of very brief lucid dreams during a dormant period (i had gotten sick of putting the work in and getting nothing in return), but since then i've had nothing. I became 'disillusioned' (or rather, lazy ) and stopped practising lucid dreaming all together.

Recently i've been thinking about getting back into things, which is why i'm here
I won't bore you with any details, but the reason for the re-interest is basically a start-from-scratch approach my to extra-physical and philosophical views on life. After exploring astral projection for a while i decided i'd forget everything i had been told and start again. Lucid dreaming has now become part of that very slow (almost non-existent these days ) quest.

Well i think that about sums it up. If you want to know anything else, feel free to ask. I hope to be hanging round here a fair bit in the future. See you round! 8)
