ABSTRACT
A lucid dream is a dream in which you are aware that you are dreaming. It is therefore a special case which is different from the usual dreams we are discussing. The primary aim is to narrow our focus on lucid dreaming to its relevance in clinical work, and to integrate the phenomenon into the overall theory of dreams as products of the Invisible Storyteller (IS) as well as provide some suggestions for what to do with them. This chapter a discussion of the implications of lucid dreams on theory, as well as things therapists can do with patients who have lucid dreams. Overall, lucid dreaming presents some unique possibilities, and nothing about the phenomenon seems to go against general interpretive principles thus far. Lucid dreamers provide an opportunity to integrate in more direct psychological ways than what therapists do in therapy, assuming they can avoid the pitfalls associated with lucid dreaming.
