Isa Vel (Caracas, Venezuela) has been practicing lucid dreaming for over 15 years and achieves lucidity almost daily. She introduces herself as “The Dreamer Who Illustrates Her Dreams” because she keeps her dream diary in the form of drawings.
– What is the best technique?
– My favorite technique is the dream journal method. I draw everything I dream, and these illustrations are my personal dream logs that capture memories and experiences without a single word. By reviewing my sketches each morning, I can instantly recall every detail of the previous night’s adventures. To induce vivid dreams, I keep my sleeping area tidy and rearrange it, keep an up-to-date journal by my bedside, and either revisit a past dream or focus on what I’d like to dream about next. With calm, consistent practice and those visual journals at hand, I can both trigger and strengthen my dream and lucid dream recall.
– What is your favorite activity to do in lucid dreams?
– My favorite activity in my lucid dreams is to work on my diaries. I have time to think, reflect, and even learn. Time is not the same as when you are awake; you can spend days in a dream and wake up feeling as if no time has passed. So, I do the same thing I do when awake: draw and illustrate my diary about everything I’ve experienced in the dream, analyzing and collecting information, especially regarding the beings of that oneiric experience or the places of sleep.
– Is this astral projection for you, or is it something that happens in the brain?
– Regarding the astral, I know very little, and from my ignorant perspective, I believe that each person has their own way of perceiving things—whether logically, spiritually, or mystically.
