Thread: Example Of How Deep/amazing Lds Can Be

i've been on a dry spell for about a few years now - maybe once a month but passively - stress, etc., but now i'm back into my love of LDs. The following is the most amazing thing i felt while in a lucid dream a few years ago...

there was a time when i would have a bunch of dreams with water - usually this was my dream sign - eventually - and that if i could breath underwater that i was asleep - at this time my lucidity was amazing - especially the fact that i 'proved' - in a way that we dream with others who we see everyday - or people across the globe - i could also at times feel my body in bed and my breathing while in open area and standing within a dream scene.

Some of you who have had practice with meditation might be absolutely astonded by this - or if you have practiced deep breathing to calm down. - In the middle of the dream underwater - where i could breath and in real life i have to plug my nose, but in my dreams breathing underwater is my ultimate escape among other things. But in this dream i was breathing underwater - but i was also feeling my body in bed at the same time - while breathing i remembered that the body slows down alot while asleep (breathing, heartbeat, etc.) but HERE's THE AMAZING PART:

i almost scared myself because my body i felt in bed was still on one cycle after what seemed eternity (either breathing in or out - even both) my body was breathing so slow i thought i was dying - i didn't think that was normal - but at the same time it was like no other mindless state or relaxing state or anything i've ever felt before - it was the most peaceful thing i had ever felt. it was as if it took about 15seconds for each in or out breath! that's how peaceful and relaxed i was

P.S.
by no means is this to discourage you that you haven't reached this state yet - but that it can only get better and that anything is possible
