Why can't you lucid dream?

Normal dreaming is an involuntary function of the subconscious mind that takes place while the conscious (waking) mind rests in natural sleep. Lucid dreaming requires the conscious mind to become active and take over the dreaming function. While this is possible, it is not "natural" and requires both effort and practice, very "unnatural" when applied to sleep. ... Lucid dreaming is best used under the guidance of a therapist as a way of controlling nightmares, not as a recreational activity for the curious.

Lucid dreaming Anime Is lucid dreaming anime possible Are the characters cartoony?

In lucid dreaming, anything you can imagine can become part of your lucid dream. Whether or not the characters are Anime or cartoony would be entirely up to you. However, lucid dreaming is not as easy as some websites and blogs claim. Like walking on your hands, it is not a natural thing, not everyone is able to do it, and when taken to extremes it can be harmful. Natural dreaming and normal sleep are necessary for both physical and mental health.


Is it true that people can control the content of their dreams?

It is true to some extent. The practice is called lucid dreaming, and occurs when you realize that you are dreaming while the dream is happening and you are still asleep. Once aware that you are dreaming, you may be able to change whatever is happening in that dream. For example, if you are being chased by a monster, when you become lucid, you may be able to stop runnng, confront the monster, and demand to know what it represents and why it is chasing you. The practice can be very useful in overcoming recurring nightmares when guided by a professional therapist. However, not everyone is able to become lucid in dreams. Moreover, there is a tremendous amount of nonsense about lucid dreaming circulating on the Internet.
