First, the best way I know to start lucid dreaming is to get in the habit of asking yourself, "Is this reality?" Eventually this habit will carry itself over into your dreams. And guess what happens when you ask this question in your dream?
Now, I was reading something about improving brain power and it says that your brain doesn't distinguish between dreams and reality. It reacts the same way in either case. When you're dreaming your ability to move gets switched off, so when you try to move, you're doing the same thing you would do when awake, except it's normally disabled so you don't go thrashing around in your sleep!
Since your brain doesn't distinguish between dreams and reality, you could use this to your advantage. You could practice something in your dreams that you want to become better at in real life. You could also overcome phobias like fear of heights, or water!
What do you think of this? Think we can use lucid dreaming to improve ourselves? Can you think of anything else we can use lucid dreaming for? I have an idea I want to try out, but I don't expect it to work. Maybe someone else can try too. I want to try to learn to move things with my mind in dreams, then try to apply that knowledge in real life. Who knows? There's a chance it might work!
