Lucid Dreaming and The Live Edge

Welcome back! Feel free to comment or ask a qustion below. If you might want to schedule some time with me, email jennifer "at" The-Live-Edge "dot" com.

Most people want to know where they fit in the world, which box they’re in, and often spend most of their lives running against the sides of their box as though someone else were keeping them in it.  But most people also somehow accept the dreamworld as the place where all bets are off, where definitions loosen for better or worse.  They’re often proud of their dreams, but they have the security of knowing that they didn’t do it on purpose.

Then there’s lucid dreaming.  It’s a skill.  You can train yourself to create your dream as you dream it.

And for some people who lucid dream a lot, it’s possible to get a little confused about what’s real, what’s not, and where they prefer to live.

In an upcoming post, I’ll discuss dreaming and the live edge more generally.  But since a thread on lucid dreaming is live right now on Tim Ferriss’ blog, how to lucid dream, take a look at it now and consider:

For processes like self-discovery: When do you push it?  When do you watch it?  When do you feed it?  When do you rest?  When do you want help?

Is your dream something private?  Something out of reach?  Something for someone else to interpret?

Is it a laboratory?  A horror movie?  The only place you feel alive?

What I want to get at here is:  where do you locate that Self you think is I when you’re taking a risk?

This has to do with The Live Edge.  I promise.
