Important Things To Understand About Lucid Dreaming.
Lucid Dreaming and Conscious Dreaming are one in the same. It is the awareness that you are in fact dreaming. In other words you are aware that what you are experiencing is occurring in a dream, while you are having the dream. Lucid dreaming allows you a particular amount of control that you do not have while dreaming normally.
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.
Is it as simple as that? Can you experience lucid dreaming and manifest those things that seem impossible or difficult while being awake in reality?
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.
Now, this all starts with you being utterly clear about what it is you want to accomplish or achieve through lucid dreaming. Nobody knows but you. Whether you want some deep mystery solved, or whether for you this is a playtime thing, what matters is that you have your objective totally clear in your mind.
Once you have this, you can begin actually learning lucid dreaming. It begins with Dream Recall, or remembering a dream you had the night before. Only when you're able to do this can you progress into learning actual lucid dreaming.
This can be a slow process, but success is achieved by maintaining a Dream Recall Register, or \"dream journal\", where you write down your dreams in as much detail as you possibly can, especially upon waking. Slowly but surely, you will in this way train your mind to be able to remember even the minutest details of your dreams. You are subconsciously opening the doorway between day and dream, and this is the bridge you cross into lucid dreaming.
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.
Going back to sleep for a couple of hours after waking in the morning can induce some excellent lucid dreams, especially if you are new to the experience. These dreams are \"just next door\" to lucid dreams because you end up wondering if they were actually dreams or if it was that your thoughts manifested as an anticipated event.
Many newer practitioners find it immensely helpful to lucid dream in the wee dawn hours just before they wake up for the day; at this point, our thoughts are already preparing for the day ahead, so the dream state and thoughts about the waking state combine.
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.
Now until recent times, this craft known as lucid dreaming took up a great deal of one's time, and many grew frustrated and quit because of this. But recent advances in audio technology have made things far, far easier for anyone who seeks to experience lucid dreaming.
The art of lucid dreaming was very time consuming to learn. However, the recent advances in sound technologies have made it much easier for anyone to experience lucid dreaming.
Binaural audios play slightly different frequencies in each ear in stereo. This results in a deeply relaxed state and a receptive brainwave configuration for the listener, who now can experience lucid dreams (assuming his mind was already prepared as described above).
Before this technology was made available, lucid dreaming had to be ultimately induced by meditation techniques; and these usually took several years to learn, on top of the fact that their austerity a touch too much for most people who then quit trying to master lucid dreams.
Before the discovery of this system of binaural sound waves you could only achieve this level of relaxation by many years of meditation study.
