Lucidity is consciousness itself. It exists in a realm of experience beyond words; achieving it is not an intellectual exercise. To become lucid is a transformation of emotions, memories, and thought patterns to reach an altered state. It’s not your image of the walls that you want to dissolve when you become lucid, it’s your image of reality. This is the first audiobook to approach lucid dreaming through hypnosis. Each chapter has a trance induction that offers you an experiential tour of altered states.
