How Do You Become A Lucid Dreamer?
You can control your dreams by learning and implementing what is call 'lucid dreaming'. Dream control is not only possible using this method, but it enables you to be completely aware of dreaming and in this state you can control the activities of your dreams, You can also control the outcome of your dreams.
But just what is lucid dreaming anyway? How can you learn to use dream control? Most importantly, what are the benefits of using dream control? Let’s take a closer look at lucid dreaming and what dream control can accomplish in your life.
What does Dream Control Mean?
Dream control, usually known as lucid dreaming means that you are totally aware when asleep that you are dreaming. You can control everything that is happening and can choose the outcome of everything that happens.
For people who suffer from recurring nightmares, this method, simplistic as it is, is powerful and may be just the system they need to rid themselves of the recurring nightmares and begin to enjoy a decent night's sleep.
Lucid Dreaming: Methods of inducement.
A very effective, but a very simple method to achieve lucid dreaming is the use of audio (binaural) and this method entails listening to a couple of different frequencies, together at the same time, and this will synchronize your brain waves and help put you into a deep state of relaxation, a state to possibly bring about the state of lucid dreaming and this is called (REM) or rapid eye movement state of sleeping.
Meditation and self hypnosis used to be the most used methods to bring about the lucid dreaming, before the new technology of the binaural waves came upon us. But these 2 methods were not always highly effective, as people said they had no success at reaching the state called for, for dream control.
Additionally these methods were followed by other techniques that were developed during the following years by experts in both phychology and science. Initially, regardless of the method used, the basic purpose was to train the mind during sleep to be aware that it was dreaming.
This all starts while we are fully conscious, you have to have a key to use, as far as what to say or do, while you are dreaming, and that signals your brain that you are dreaming, and then permits you to control the rest of the dream.
It's as simple a thing as reminding yourself while you are awake and before going to sleep you'll be dreaming and in that dream you'll remember to say or do something, something specific, at which time you will know that you are dreaming.
This is considered as a mnemonic or mild process of bringing on lucid dreaming, and was founded by Dr. Stephen LaBerge (a scientist). Through this your mind becomes in total control of what is happening as you dream, this means you will be in no way harmed because it is only in your mind and of that you are in control of.
There are other means of accomplishing lucid dreaming and one would be to keep a journal or a dream diary, in which to record your dreams. By keeping this notebook (and a pen or pencil) nearby on the table by your bed you will be able to write down what you remember about the dream right after you wake up, when it is fresh in your mind. Do this for several nights and soon you will remember what you wrote and you will have a similar dream and then you will be able to control your dream and the activities in that dream.
Chase away the bad guys in nightmares, travel to whatever location you desire, go to your imagined hideaways, talk to famous people if you want, and basically be unshackled by worldly concerns. Through controlling your dreams, you can accomplish this, it gives you the ability to be in control of your nightly dream world and all that happens there.
However, keep in mind that you can have too much of a good thing, even dream control. Experts in the field have said that our dreams can be a way of our subconscious minds trying to tell us something important. It’s important to give yourself a few nights off from lucid dreaming now and then, as amazing of an experience as discovering dream control can be.
