Solving Problems With a Lucid Dream
If you are not quite sure what it is, Lucid Dreaming is actually pretty simple. Lucid Dreams are those where you are aware of the fact that you are dreaming while you are dreaming. How lucid exactly your lucid dream is depends on how much control you have over the events of the dream, how stable the dream is and how many of the events of the dream you can remember once you wake up from it.
The most remarkable factor about the amazing Lucid Dream is the experience while dreaming. Just being able to identify and impact your dream is astounding. This means that you can direct your dream like a producer does a movie and you have no limits or budget dictating your creation.
Just think about this for a second. The events in a Lucid Dream seem real; but with the difference that you know that it is all a dream and that you are safe; there is no risk of injury in a Lucid Dream and no limits to your abilities. It is a kind of \"virtual reality\" experience which no computer can come close to in terms of realism.
Lucid Dreaming is an astonishing experience; more and more people are finding this out for themselves. While most people have a Lucid Dream at some point in their lives; wouldn't it be incredible if you could have Lucid Dreams whenever you wanted to?
If you truly want to open up a new path into some pretty amazing experiences then you probably want to learn just what you can do with these dreams. Imagine, if you will, being able to create your own universe, your own movie saga, create novels and book, or even experiment and design things all in the state of peaceful relaxation and slumber. You could even time travel and speak to people you have never met or have not seen in many years. Your dram has no limits!
As neat as lucid dreaming sounds, it's a lot more difficult to learn how to do. The process itself is pretty complicated to achieve. In the past most people would spend months, maybe years, attempting to achieve just one lucid dream. In the process they would put themselves through training and instructions and even self conditioning procedures. Then they may have one or even two lucid dreams. Even then they may manage only a few brief minutes or seconds of lucidity. Many others never even succeed just once.
Some Simple Ideas that May Produce a Lucid Dream
Some say that you can help increase your odds of having a Lucid Dreaming by eating certain foods before bedtime; among them are mustard, orange juice, milk and cheese.
Some other people have noted that pickles, ice cream, popcorn, and even fish have assisted them. These may not be as effective in aiding Lucid Dream occurrences. The idea that some people claim is that these foods containing high sugar, high fat, and even high acid content, prepare your brain for the session. They even claim that they prepare your brain to recall the Lucid Dream afterwards. The main issue is that these foods hamper the body and minds ability to produce restful sleep.
Can Technology Assist You?
New advances in technology have made it easier for people to experience Lucid Dreaming. Some of these devices use LEDs – there are sleep masks and eyeshades which can detect REM sleep and set off a LED, reminding the sleeper that they are dreaming. This then lets them take control over their dream.
One of the most effective of these new technologies is one which uses audio frequencies called binaural beats. Each of the listener's ears have different frequencies played into them, which helps you to have Lucid Dreams.
Binaural frequencies can synchronize the hemispheres of the brain; as you listen, your mind reaches the state of REM sleep; which is necessary fro Lucid Dreaming to occur.
If you've always wanted to try out Lucid Dreaming, binaural sound is certainly the quickest and easiest way to begin.
