DYLAN TUCCILLO, JARED ZEIZEL, AND THOMAS PEISEL
Thomas, Jared and Dylan are award-winning writers and filmmakers living in Manhattan and Los Angeles, each with their own story. Thomas began his exploits in the dream world as a young teenager. After becoming lucid spontaneously a few times, he began emerging himself in books, articles and anything he could find that might help him understand this unique experience. Since then, he has flown above the clouds with geese, ran through the woods as a wolf, created a galaxy and met with varous teachers in his dreams. His greatest advice was given to him by a 7-feet-tall Abraham Lincoln. Jared also learned about lucid dreaming during his teenage years. He’s bathed in the sunlight while flying, battled giant robot ninjas, conversed with the darker aspects of himself and practiced controlling energy. He looks at lucid dreaming as a chance to step through the mirror of dreaming, an opportunity to push the veil of our reality aside and glimpse at the nature of the universe. He also likes hanging out with baby tiger cubs. Dylan was exposed to lucid dreaming by Thomas after the two met at college. He gawked at this amazing ability and soon found himself flying over the ocean, talking with guides and exploring Mexican villages. The three started thinking about Oneironautics in late 2010. “If only the rest of the world could wake up in their dreams!” they thought. The trio raised money for Oneironautics on crowd-sourcing site Kickstarter.com. The rest is history….

An Indie Bestseller
Imagine experiencing all the things that happen in dreams, except that you actively direct them – and in fact use that ability to be more creative, solve problems, reonnect with loved ones, and discover a deep sense of well-being. It’s called lucid dreaming, and this is the first practical, hip guide that shows the reader how to do it. With its evocative retro illustrations, A Field Guide to Lucid Dreaming takes the reader from step one – learning how to reconnect with his or her dreams – through the myriad possibilities of what can happen once the dreamer is lucid, including how to navigate the dream world, interact with dream characters, and tackle difficult problems by dream incubation. Whether for recreation or personal growth, it’s like waking up to a whole new world.
