Have you participated In Lucid Dreaming?
\"Conscious Dreaming\" or Lucid Dreaming involves remaining aware during a dream. That is, when you are having a lucid dream, you know that you are dreaming; but you are still \"inside\" the dream, not standing outside looking in. In dreams as in life, awareness gives you great power, and you have power over the course of your very own dreams.
This is a true metaphysical power, this power over your own dreams' actions and events. Instead of things being done to you, you are the star, and the writer, of the story, and you can use this power to help bring about great changes in your own waking life.
But is it as simple as it's being made to sound? Can just anyone know the power of lucid dreaming and make \"real\" what otherwise is extremely difficult or even impossible given the natural laws of the waking world?
As a matter of fact, lucid dreaming isn't all that hard, as long as you have a burning desire to learn these amazing, tried and true techniques of expressing your innermost desires.
Not only that, you have to have very defined objectives about exactly what you want to accomplish with your lucid dreaming. Is this about recreation? Is it about solving a problem whose answer eludes you in your waking life? Is this about enhancing your creativity? It's up to you, but it's got to be clear. Your objective itself must be lucid!
But once you see clearly what your aim is, you can start the process of mastering lucid dreaming. Dream Recall is the first step. This is where you become able to remember, in detail, the dreams of your previous night's sleep. Without Dream Recall, there can be no lucid dreaming.
The process will be slow. However, you can achieve it by keeping a Dream Recall Register. Here you will list daily all the details you can recall about your dreams. Eventually, you do realize you can remember the most vivid of dream details. You can train your mind to be aware while you are dreaming by doing periodic reality checks.
Hypnosis has been used quite often to significantly reduce the time a person needs to train their subconscious mind to the point where they're ready for lucid dreaming. Only one or two sessions of hypnosis may be all one needs to do the trick.
On occasion, you may suddenly find yourself wide awake during a lucid dream. However, you will easily be able to recall all the essential details of your dream with the power you have achieved thus far. You can simply relax and fall back asleep, while you continue in the desired direction in your dream. Upon awaking you will realize that you have experienced the power of conscious dreaming the previous night.
It's not difficult; just set an alarm clock to go off a couple of hours before your regularly scheduled waking. Wake up to the alarm, switch it off, and then return to sleep and experience some vividly lucid dreams.
Sleeping disorders like insomnia are quite often done away with by lucid dreaming. If you have insomnia and can't get to sleep at the usual or needed hours, all you need do is tell your mind that sleeping is the equivalent of lucid dreaming, and your subconscious acts to remove or integrate all thoughts which are keeping you from your needed sleep.
You can actually fight off sleeping disorders such as insomnia by lucid dreaming. If you struggle for sleep during normal sleeping hours you can tell your mind that sleeping equals lucid dreaming. You mind will take care of your thoughts that might prevent you from going to sleep.
Recent advances in sound technologies have made it much faster and easier for one to learn lucid dreaming.
The technology of binaural audio recordings has been tested and proven to give enormous help to people who want to lucid dream.
Binaural audio recordings work in stereo; a different sound frequency is played in each ear at the same time, phasing the brainwaves correctly and inducing deep relaxation in the listener, opening them up to lucid dreaming.
Before this time the only way for you to learn how to lucid dream was to make use of meditation techniques that took several years to master with firmness and strength of mind power. However, many individuals felt it to be too difficult to continue, before this new technology became available.
It is possible to experience lucid dreaming soon by listening to binaural sound waves combined with hypnosis to prepare your subconscious mind.
