Thread: Hello From England

hi, from a noob. and i just found this site.
i just bought a book on lucid dreaming to help with fears and stuff, but it aint arrived yet. i've had a few lucid/astral episodes but cant seem to keep it up for long because i get scared or carried away with erm, other things!!. hoping this site will give me a good boost and ideas to get better. plus i have strange experiences i will share later and want to work through it through lucid dreaming(hopefully).

happy dreamin' y'all

Welcome!! Which book did you order? Sounds like you are on the right track, and I know this site will help you tons Let me know if you have any questions You may want to check out the threads in the Dream Control (http://www.dreamviews.com/community/...splay.php?f=14) section for how to get over fear/excitement and keep a dream nice and stable

Hi shift. Thanks.

The book is written by Patricia Garfield
Creative dreaming; plan and control your dreams & develop creativity and overcome fears, solve problems and create a better self.
Phew thats a mouthful eh?

Haha yea that's quite the title! I've never heard of the book itself, but I have heard of the author. Sounds like it could definitely help! I know a lot of the members on the site, myself included, recommend Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming by Stephen LaBerge, a very, very good book on lucid dreaming and how to achieve it! So if you want to start a collection of LD-related books, I'd highly recommend that as well. Let me know how Garfield's book is!

Yeh Thanks I'll have a look on amazon later. Sounds like it's got a good rep.

Oh yea, absolutely. Just about everyone on this site considers it the "lucid dreaming bible"!

Hi Ashberry,

Welcome, I'm new here myself having just stumble upon this site. I'm so impress with all the people that are on here who are breaking new grounds in the inner exploration.

Anyway, I would consider that book the second best after the LaBerg's book. But it term of overcoming fears and solve problem then I think you got the right book to begin with. Patricia also included some interesting bit on different culture that have use lucid dream.
