Inevitably, when I’m dream consulting, the subject of Lucid Dreaming comes up. Many people wonder if they can easily have a lucid dream. Others are confused by the subject and are almost afraid to ask about lucid dreaming. So for those who really want to know, here are a few tips that will help you have a lucid dream in the least amount of time.

The act of Lucid Dreaming is also referred to as ‘conscious awareness during sleep.’ When you decide you want to learn how to have a lucid dream, you actually want to be able to enter into your dreams and have a little fun. After all, in the dream world, anything is possible, and acceptable - and the best part is that you never get hurt!

As you develop the ability to have a lucid dream, you can now do anything you want inside your dream. You can fly above everything and everyone; have uninhibited sexual encounters with your movie star of choice; be the life of any party, etc. And No, it’s not true that only certain people can induce lucid dreaming. With a little practice, anyone can learn how to have a lucid dream and start becoming part of the extreme dream world.

The reason you can have a lucid dream is because as you sleep, your unconscious mind takes over. Then you start to think and ponder the events of the day. After all that thinking is done, your mind moves on to things that you would LIKE to happen, but probably never will in real life. You’re still half-way awake at this time, but as soon as you start to actually sleep, you start to dream Most people don’t become aware that they’re dreaming unless they specifically try to. Usually at first you’re not aware that you are dreaming. But as you practice remembering your dreams, they will become more familiar. Then it becomes easier to have a lucid dream and start participating in it. Remembering your dreams is one step to being able to have a lucid dream. This isn’t easy to do at first because the part of the subconscious mind that dreams has no memory. That’s why you need to try to remember your dreams when you are just waking up - or you won’t remember them at all.

You should consistently try to have a lucid dream when you’re not so tired; get a good night’s sleep one night, and then try to have a lucid dream the next. Actually, the last sleep cycle before you wake up in the morning is the longest DREAM cycle, and the best time to induce lucid dreaming. You will have more success when you try to have a lucid dream in the early morning, and more fun with your longer dream state.

5 Stars Best of all musical worlds
Whether it’s listening to my iPod, a favorite CD, or the radio, this product has all options. It also has two alarm settings. And it looks great.

4 Stars the sound was o.k. for a small space
recommended if you are looking for a ipod & CD clock radio. sound quality isn’t that good if it’s placed in a large space, but when your room is smaller, it o.k.

5 Stars Satisfied Customer
Excellent price, even with the shipping cost, for the same product sold in my local stores. Delivery was on time and the goods came intact. I really saved on money, gas and time. My daughter is very pleased with her gift. So far, so good.

3 Stars This is cool product
This is a cool product but the time keeps running ahead about once a week I have to run it back 15 minutes.

5 Stars All I was expecting and more.
I bought and returned 2 other C/Rs w/CD player before I found this one. Since it’s totally digital, the time is always displayed, yet at the same time I can know which station I’m listening to on the radio, which channel and minutes I’m listening to on a CD, everything is visible. Because there are so many functions and sub-functions, there aren’t enough buttons on the machine itself, so a remote control is necessary. That’s all right. It gives me everything I want. And the sound quality is quite adequate for the audio books I listen to.

4 Stars Does its job with a few things to note.
I will start out saying I am glad I ordered these speakers. They have great sound and serve their purpose well. There are a few things I want to note so future buyers can know. The blue LED lights are super bright. Obnoxiously so. There is one on each speaker and one on the transmitter. I plan on covering them up with tape. The other thing is that when I plugged the transmitter into either the head phone or speaker jack on my computer it causes the other speakers on my computer to barely emit sound. So if you were thinking of using these with your computer to play music or other sound around your house. Don’t plan on your computer speakers working at the same time.

Still I am glad with the product.

5 Stars Very good wireless speakers, great add on to a widescreen TV.
We bought these speakers to hook up to our wide screen TV. The larger the TV screen, the farther away from it you sit to enjoy it, and because of the greater distance, the louder you must crank up the TV volume to hear it. And this load volume can cause sound to reverberate into a room behind the TV where someone is trying to concentrate, study, or sleep and can make it painful to walk through the room where the TV is. These speakers hooked right up to the RCA audio outputs on the back of our TV using adapters that came right in the box. In fact, they setup up quickly and correctly right out of the box. We placed the speakers back where we watch the TV from, about 20 feet, and this allowed us to adjust them to a nice volume. We have heard a lot of background sounds on movies we own that we had not heard before . . . AND there are no more concerns with the TV volume being too loud (as above). In fact, we can mute the TV and it has no effect on the speakers. One small thing that could be improved: the remote control does not turn on the speakers; it only adjusts their volume and turns them off.

4 Stars Good speakers
Pros: Good speakers, good range, remote is a nice feature.

Cons: Uses 6C batteries per speaker, audio device has to be on 50-75% volume before it will connect to the wireless speakers. Not much bass, but quality sound for size.

I use them mostly with my mp3 player & computer, but have connected them to tv.

4 Stars Good prices……
We purchased a set of the SPK-VELO-001 Audio Wireless Speakers with Remote as a Christmas present. They arrived promptly, however when my brother-in-law went to hook them up only one speaker worked. I called the vendor who told me I had to write them for a return number. 3 days later we got that and sent the speakers off. It took 3 1/2 weeks for the exchange to arrive back here. I sure hope that this set works……

4 Stars Not bad for the price
I recieved this product before christmas and have been using it since. It has great reception anywhere in the house. I haven’thad a chance to use them outside yet. They are not extremely high quality sound but not bad for the price. Overall a good product for the money.

1 Star Poorly made, doesn’t function long
I received this product for Christmas. I know it was purchased on Amazon.com. Just so everyone is aware, this is a model that i-home no longer makes, there is a newer model that is manufactured now. Though I like the docking features and the sound quality is good, some of the LCD digits on the clock display stopped working last week. Now I can’t tell what time it is! That’s very important to me, since this sits by my bedside, and is used as a clock first and foremost. Also, the remote only works if you aim it only at one very specific spot on the front of the unit, not just in the general direction like a TV or other device.

All in all, poorly made, and not worth the money.

1 Star bconn
