My name is Steve. I have practiced and taught T’ai Chi for over 40 years. I trained in Aikdo and became Sensei for many years after that. I write and record songs in my home studio.
I was introduced to lucid dreaming in February of 2019, just after my 67th birthday. I had what can only be described as an accidental lucid dream where I became completely conscious that I was dreaming.
That next day I began my research and my training. Since that night I have practiced daily and nightly with the goal of achieving an unbroken continuity of consciousness between awake and a’dream. After a number of pretty amazing lucid experiences early on I stumbled upon Andrew’s material and soon thereafter upon the manuscript “The Tibetan Yogas of Sleep and Dream”.
As I finish the 10th month of my intensive journey into this amazing realm I am having pretty amazing nights where I use occasional lucidity as a tool to work toward the pure presence of the conscious dream. This has changed my life. I wake in the mornings feeling light and refreshed as karmic traces continue to liberate.
Many nights of late I am finding myself in the clear light of a dreamless but vibrant place at the end of my dream yoga cycles.
I have incorporated all of this into my life, even as I rise every day at 4:00 AM for a long day in my office at work where I am able to work constantly on my daytime dream practice as well.
I am thrilled to find this community as the more I gaze…the more I crave to see. Thank you, Andrew.
