LUCID DREAMING by Celia Green and Charles McCreery The paradox of consciousness during sleep
$19.95 Can we learn to control our dreams? Lucid dreams are those in which a person becomes aware that they are dreaming. They are different from ordinary dreams because they are often strikingly realistic and may be emotionally charged to the point of elation. Celia Green and Charles McCreery have written a unique introduction to lucid dreams that will appeal to the specialist and general reader alike. The authors explore the experience of lucid dreaming, relate it to other phenomena such as out-of-the-body experiences and apparitions, and look at how lucid dreams can be induced and controlled. Finally they examine their use for therapeutic purposes such as counter-acting nightmares. Their study is illustrated throughout with many case histories. Celia Green is Director of the Institute of Psychophysical Research in Oxford and is the author of Lucid Dreams (1968). Charles McCreery is Research Officer at the Institute of Psychophysical Research. They are joint authors of Apparitions (1975). |
