Summary of "Lucid Dreaming" from the textbook

In Pamela Hartmann’s article, “Lucid Dreaming” from “Our Dreaming Mind”, she discusses why people can have a lucid dream before they wake up and how to do it. Aristotle, in the fourth century B.C.E, Oliver Fox in 1902, and Patricia Garfield in 1974 left their ideas about the lucid dreaming in their research papers. They state that lucid dream is an experience in which you can control your dream while you are sleeping. In addition to that, the author introduced the technique for developing lucid dreaming called ‘MILD” which is made by Stephan LaBerge. He said people can dream that which they hope to see, depending on their training.
