Lucid Dreaming

In the present day, people are more inclined to talk about their dreams than they were fifty or even twenty years ago. The advances in the area of psychology and sleep research have affected our beliefs about what happens when we sleep.

Although some deny the meaning and even the existence of dreams, advances in scientific sleep research conducted at colleges and universities around the world have verified both. Yet, the reasons why we dream remain largely unanswered.

Pioneering research into the Universal Language of Mind being conducted at the College of Metaphysics
seeks to change this.

For the purposes of our global experiment

Lucid dreaming is the conscious perception of one’s state while dreaming.


How to Participate

Largely due to dreamschool.org we are connected to people like you all over the world.

This makes it possible for us to unite dreamers and their amazing experiences
across cultural, racial, and national borders.

The GLOBAL LUCID DREAMING EXPERIMENT contributes to this effort.
As far as we can tell it is the first study of its kind.

Sign up to participate today and spread the word around the world!

You'll receive the instructions you need for the experiment by email. Keep checking here for updated information and, this summer, the results.

What is Lucid Dreaming? I can only say that I made my observations during normal deep and healthy sleep, and that in 352 cases, I had full recollection of my day-life and could act voluntarily, though I was so fast asleep that no bodily sensations penetrated my perception. If anybody refuses to call that state of mind a dream, he may suggest some other name. For my part it was just this form of dream, which I call "lucid dreams" which aroused my keenest interest and which I noted most carefully.
--Dutch author and psychiatrist Frederik van Eeden (1913).
