Conscious dreaming — often referred to as "lucid dreaming" — refers to being consciously aware that you are dreaming while the dream itself is taking place.

There are several different levels of conscious dreaming, ranging from simply being aware that you are dreaming to being able to control your own actions in the dream to ultimately being able to control the dream events or dream environment.

The Dreamwalk Program will teach you first how to recognize when you are dreaming and how to hold onto that conscious awareness throughout the dream. Then, you'll learn how to control not just your own actions within the dream but also the events or dream environment. As you master these skills, you'll learn how to decide when to take full control of the dream events and when to sit back and allow your subconscious mind to steer the dream while you remain a consciously aware participant.

Learning the art of conscious dreaming can be beneficial in many ways. As we develop our conscious dreaming skills, not only do we become more aware within our dreams, we also become more aware of the subtleties in waking life. We begin to take notice of things we previously weren't aware of, both within ourselves and in our surroundings.

Through conscious dreaming, we can learn how to improve our mental and emotional well-being, how to better understand ourselves and our inner drives, and even how to use our dreams to practice skills for waking life. We can also have fun!
