Being aware within your dreams is called lucid dreaming. Charlie Morley learned lucid dreaming as a teenager and received instruction from both Eastern and Western specialists. We underestimate the potential of lucid dreaming despite having aspirations. Lucid dreaming is when you're aware that you're dreaming and can control your dreams. Lucid dreaming provides you with access and control over parts of your subconscious mind, thoughts, and memories that remain concealed when you are awake. Dreams of Awakening explores lucid dreaming in Western and Tibetan Buddhist contexts. It explores both lucid dreaming practices and the new technique called Mindfulness of Dream and Sleep, which the author helped create.
