One of the best books ever written on lucid dreaming!
As a lucid dream coach, I’ve spent hundreds of dollars reading dozens of books on lucid dreaming and this is by far one of the best! The title is accurate because it is certainly one of the most complete books on lucid dreaming to date. Whatever aspect of lucid dreaming grabs your interest, chances are Dr. Clare Johnson has touched on it in this book. It is filled with studies, stories, and easy-to-follow practices, while still holding a professional tone that can only be achieved by one of the lead thinkers in the field.Dr. Johnson has done an excellent job of weaving together scientific references with her own personal experience of lucid dreaming. It’s no wonder that she’s become the president of the International Association for the Study of Dreams! The price is unbeatable when considering the length and quality of this work. A fantastic addition to any lucid dreamer’s bookshelf. Highly recommended!

Had a lucid dream the same week I read this
Since I was about 13 years old, I've had a lucid dream here and there. Most have been simply observing what was happening in the dream, while being fully aware that I was in a dream. After having my fourth-remembered lucid dream, I decided to purchase this book.Within a week of reading the first few chapters, I started to lucid dream more frequently. I think I ended up getting up to six lucid dreams in the first month I read it. These dreams were the first where I was actually able to control what was happening. Here's what happened in one:I was standing in a white bedroom with just a single bed, instinctively knowing that this was my bedroom. All of the sudden it started snowing inside. I remember thinking that I need to talk to the landlord about filling the cracks near the windows, but then I realized it didn't make sense that it was full-blown snowing from the ceiling. BOOM! I became lucid. Overcome with excitement, I tried to make something manifest. Looking at one of the bedroom walls I thought to myself, "MELT." Within seconds, the wall started to look like the dripping wax of a lit taper candle.Still amazed with the concept of controlling my lucidity, I ran into the living room of the dream. I kept thinking that I wanted to see some sort of mythical creature, so I first thought of a fairy. Closing my eyes I tried to manifest it, then I hear *tink tink* on the window of the living room. Sure enough a three-inch pixie was starting at me through the window.Long-story-short, this is a great tool to unlock the ability to become aware in your dreams.

What a tremendous book!
Llewellyn’s Complete Book of Lucid Dreaming is delightful to read and full of valuable information and insights.I discovered lucid dreaming at the beginning of 2015. After a couple of weeks of learning and practicing, I succeeded in having my first lucid dream and became fascinated with it. I have now taken a couple of classes and I’ve read dozens of books on the subject.When I first saw this book, I thought I probably would not find a lot of new information, but decided to check it out. I was wrong: even after reading many of the leading experts on lucid dreaming, I still found a lot of new and useful information here.Dr. Clare Johnson provides a comprehensive exploration of scientific research in the field of lucid dreaming, combined with very detailed explanations of practical exercises and techniques for achieving lucidity, stabilizing the dream, and reaching higher levels of consciousness within the dream. The author writes in an easy to read and engaging style, without being superficial. She includes all the latest research and findings in the field; and artfully interjects inspiring stories based on her own experiences as a lucid dreamer and those of countless other individuals and experts alike.Llewellyn’s Complete Book of Lucid Dreaming covers and includes all the different reasons why one might be interested in lucid dreaming and how to explore and improve your own abilities, from self-development and spiritual growth to enhancing creativity, dealing with nightmares, healing, and more.The book is comprehensive, expertly written, and engaging. I highly recommend this book and believe it is an essential reading for anyone interested in dream work and lucid dreaming.

Beautiful book
I just received this book yesterday. I have read 180 pages. If you are looking for a book on lucid dreaming, this is your book for absolutely sure. It’s pretty thick & I’m pretty sure it’s as comprehensive of a book on this subject you are going to find. It’s a beautiful book. Exactly what I was looking for. It’s good for people just wanting to learn about lucid dreaming, people who have lucid dreams & want to master the skill a bit more (like me), & for anyone who would like to start the process of learning how to lucid dream. I had no idea there was so much actual science on this. I’m blown away. I have been doing a lot of this throughout my life.

Massive and amazing
This book is massive and amazing - like two or three books in one. I bought the physical copy and glad I did as it's something I'll keep on my shelf always to keep dipping into.There are so many valuable insights into lucid dreaming in this book, and lots of practical exercises to have more lucid dreams. It's going to keep me going for a looong time and is already helping me to be more aware in my thinking. It's horizon expanding and ground breaking, there is up-to-the-minute science, practical techniques, personal accounts of lucid dreaming, also chapters on nightmares, the lucid dream body, and how to interact with the people we meet in our dreams. I can't wait to keep digging deeper into this book.

Dreams are powerful tools for health
What a beautiful book, not only to look at and to handle, but for its wise and helpful ideas. Every area of our lives - personal, public, physical, psychological - can be examined and changed for the better by using the techniques and exercises listed inside. The author's clear and friendly style of expression ensures complete and instant comprehension, even if you are new to lucid dreaming and introspection. Not only is it a very engaging book to read, but it can act as a reference guide to place you, and then to keep you, on course for huge benefits. Thoroughly recommended!

Enjoyable and educational
This is one of the most complete titles on the subject. Clare covers the detail but doesn’t neglect the style. The reader is pleasantly awakened to the world of lucid dreaming by her lovely language and inviting style. The book references other experts and their ideas shine through to complement her lucid insight. An enjoyable and educational read.
