How to have amazing lucid dreams
Experts agree that everyone is capable of having lucid dreams. Dreaming itself is a normal function of the mind. We all dream every night, even if we don't remember.

There's definitely something magical about that - and it's as if the lucid dream world is a living, breathing organism that can react to your very thoughts.
