it's interesting how some people spontaneously have a LD long before becoming aware of websites, induction techniques etc.

lucid dreaming for me has somehow had a connection to the ocean and water in general. i grew up very close to the pacific ocean and spent a lot of time in it from a young age. i was around 7 when i had my first LD and it came about because i was dreaming that i was trapped under water - but i was comfortable with waves and the feeling of having trouble getting to the surface. i became so aware of holding my breath that i could sense my physical body and that i could breathe while still in this dream. then i swam off, breathing underwater and aware that i was dreaming.

i had my most vivid LD maybe a year ago - i found myself floating with ocean swells and i recognized the beach. i felt like i was back home it was so real.

water is one of my dreamsigns, but i feel like there's a way to make this connection a bigger part of my dreaming practice...(advice is welcome)
