How To Dream Lucidly Every Night
Wouldn’t it be nice to dream whatever you want and control the events in this dream world? It is a very simple thing to do and anyone can learn it. It is a great tool for playing out feelings and desires that otherwise would remain hidden in the subconscious mind. You can follow simple methods already being used by others for lucid dreaming.
Complete power to control your dreams may seem like a fantasy or sci-fi novel, but anyone can achieve this dream state and it is fairly easy to do. You can actually express your inner feelings, along with your desires while in this state of dreaming. There are proven methods that will allow you to achieve a state of lucid dreaming.
The first thing you should do is to figure out what your goals are in learning conscious dreaming. Do you hope to have more enjoyment from your dreams, or is conscious dreaming a vehicle for you to achieve some of your other life goals?
Once you know why you want to start conscious dreaming, you will then need to become more practiced in the techniques which can produce lucid dreams. Dream recall is the way that most people choose to begin – this is simply training yourself to remember your dreams.
This will force your mind to focus on your dreams and begin remembering them easily as time goes by. You can always use your dream record to refresh your memory. As soon as you get used to recalling your dreams you are ready to go to the next level, which is to know when you are in a dream. You may in fact be in a dream and suddenly realize it.
You will remember more about your dreams each time you write the information in the diary and you’ll also be able to use your dream to refresh your memory. Now your mind is primed to remember details of your dreams and being aware of your dreams has become easy. You may suddenly become awake and aware that what you dreamt is not real.
Either on its own or along with a dream diary, hypnosis is a powerful technique for training your mind to recall dreams. In fact, many find themselves able to remember every detail of their dreams with only a few sessions of hypnosis! Once you have gained this ability, you will be able to begin conscious dreaming.
A common problem people have when they get started in conscious dreaming is suddenly awakening from their conscious dreams; to return to your dream, go back to sleep while concentrating on the events of the dream in as much detail as possible.
Something else which works for a lot of people is to set your alarm two to three hours before you would usually get up. Once you awaken, go right back to sleep (don’t forget to reset your alarm, though!). These last few hours of sleep are when conscious dreaming is most likely to happen. Many find that they are so conscious of these dreams that it can be difficult to tell if you are dreaming, or just lying awake thinking.
Figure out your sleep patterns, as this will help you to figure out when the best times for you to have conscious dreaming experiences are. Don’t short yourself on sleep too much though; being sleep deprived makes it harder to have lucid dreams.
You will be happy to know that lucid dreaming is helpful for insomnia as well as other sleeping disorders. If you can dream consciously, you can condition yourself to turn off nagging thoughts that keep you awake at night.
You may think that it would take years to learn the techniques for conscious dreaming, but the opposite is true. In a short period of time with a little work on your part, you can achieve your goal of conscious dreaming. Explore, control and manipulate your dreams.
If you are asleep and aware you are dreaming, this means you are having a lucid or conscious dream. This means you can control what happens while you are in this state. You will know you are dreaming so you can decide what happens next.
