      Lucid dreaming is such an interesting thing. So lucid dreams are dreams when the dreamer is aware that they are dreaming, and therefore they are able to change the course of the dream. People often want to train themselves to lucid dream because they can then try to find out what it would feel like to do super cool things like flying that they would never be able to do in real life.
      I’m not actually sure why some people lucid dream – there’s lots of things about sleep and dreaming that we don’t know, and lots of research trying to find out more about it.

      This is something I had never heard of before I looked it up just now! I agree with what Heidi has already answered 🙂
