A Field Guide to Lucid Dreaming: Mastering the Art of Oneironautics Paperback – September 10, 2013

Great Read. The idea of having "dream amnesia" is wild to me. This is a book of self empowerment and discovery. A must read for anyone interested in MORE. Also Love the picture inserts!

This a great way to get into Lucid Dreaming. Easy to follow directions that worked really well for me. Like most thing you get out what you put in.

This book was super interesting. I’ve always been interest in dreams & lucid dreams so when I saw someone on tiktok recommend it i looked into it and was not disappointed. The concepts are very easy to understand plus the book has a sense of humor which is fun. If you’re interested in learning how to lucid dream i’d read this! :)

I read my first book about lucid dreaming in 1991 - Stephen LaBerge's original "Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming" which was the culmination of his research work at the Stanford Sleep Lab during the 1980's. If you want to go deep on technical details of lucid dreaming, then get that book, it's still one of the best. Or, get the incredible "Integral Dreaming: A Holistic Approach to Dreams" by Fariba Bogzaran and Daniel Deslauriers - that is new and one incredibly well written and researched book.There are several folks bringing lucid dreaming to pop culture these days - Ryan Hurd, Tim Post, Charlie Morley, and Rory Mac Sweeny to name a few. And this book comes across as a continuation of that work.As the first reviewer said it might not give you depth across the different areas it covers, but it does offer an attractive story-like format with lovely illustrations. If you want something lively and engaging that reads like a story - get this book. A "Field Guide to Lucid Dreaming" makes an entertaining and very accessible introduction into the subject of lucid dreaming. But it goes beyond intro, and provides general coverage around the full spectrum of current thoughts, techniques, and work being done with lucid dreams.I can read it with my 8 year old daughter, and she enjoys it - the side stories and illustrations help. I could share it with friends who don't know much or anything about the subject and they would likely stay interested.This book seems like it could be for anyone from the completely uninformed to the well-read depending on what you want to get from it. The authors brought the subject matter into an engaging format that's difficult to put down and easy to read.

Some books about topics such as these are written by experts who seem to want to write for other experts.This book is very well written with each concept easily building upon those previously explained, and it is funny and entertaining to read which keeps you engaged.As for the-life changing part, just following the simple instructions in this book and practicing yields such changes in my dreams and my awareness that I can scarcely believe it. I am remembering and experiencing dreams so vividly now.I've had a couple of very exciting dreams where I was literally watching the dream as if it were an immersive movie literally created in my dream. The craziest thing was during one of them, there were plot twists (it was a murder mystery involving a cheating husband, the wife, and the woman involved with the husband) and the twists SURPRISED me! I literally did not see them coming!Who would not want to see completely original movies in your dreams at night, then step into them and turn them into whatever experience you want?I kid you not, fly a fighter plan (or just fly!), fight sharks, or go on a hike with Abraham Lincoln. If an idiot like me can do this, so can you.

This was a very well written book, and I enjoyed it very much. It's written to hold the attention of both novices, and advanced onironauts. I have read several books on the subject, and found this one to be my favorite thus far. I also liked how the author had the compass every couple pages to try and get the reader used to reality checking throughout the day. My only criticism would be the chapter on wake initiated lucid dreaming seamed a bit lacking. I had hoped for a bit more information. Also in the book,(I don't remember where exactly) it states that the DILD methods account for almost 80 percent of all lucid dreams, and that is why the book primarily focuses on this. I however, have found this to be the exact opposite from my experience. The vast majority (...like 99.99%) of my lucid dreams are all wake initiated. WILD is my ace in the hole, as I'm sure it is for many others. All in all this was a good, informative read, and I would recommend it to everyone.

Information even for Psychologists. Lucid dreaming Is a difficult subject. I hope to read more by the authors. Thorough treatment.
