Lucid Dreaming Explained
Conscious Dreaming is what is also known as Lucid Dreaming. When you are lucid dreaming, you are consciously aware of what you are dreaming about, even though your mind is within the dream. So, to put it more simply, when you are lucid dreaming, you are perfectly aware that you're dreaming even as you are within the dream. So, unlike the usual dream, you are aware that you're dreaming even as events in the dream are unfolding around you, which means that you can control those events.
Having the power to completely control the direction of your dreams is part of your basic metaphysical existence. All the limitations you feel in life cease to exist swiftly.
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.
Perhaps most important of all is that you need to be perfectly clear regarding your personal objective in trying to master lucid dreaming. Are these lucid dreams for your own private playground, or do you have something more serious in mind? It doesn't much matter, just as long as you've got it crystal clear in your mind's eye.
Once you understand your reason you will begin the learning process of how to lucid dream. You will need to learn Dream Recall. This is the ability to recall a dream from the previous night. You will not be able to lucid dream until you can recall a dream.
Understand the process is slow. However, you can be successful by keeping a personal Dream Recall Register. You will begin by listing daily all the details you are able to recall about your dream. You will eventually realize that you can recall some of the most vivid details of your dream. Doing periodic reality checks, while you are in a dream state will aid you in training your mind for awareness.
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.
Now, you can get to lucid dreams more easily by simply going back to sleep a few hours before you intend to wake up for the day.
Lucid dreams can be readily induced by going back to sleep for a couple of hours after you wake up in the morning. These dreams are the closest to lucid dreams, because they seem to be borderline between actual dreams or your conscious thoughts manifested in anticipation of an event for that day. Just set an alarm clock to go off a couple of hours before you will be waking up for the day, then turn it off and go back to sleep to experience lucid dreaming.
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.
Do you know you can overcome such sleeping disorders as insomnia by learning to lucid dream? If you are one who struggles with getting your sleep during normal sleeping hours, simply tell your mind that sleeping equals lucid dreaming. All those bothersome thoughts that keep you from going to sleep will be taken care of by your mind.
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.
Slightly different frequencies get played into each ear by way of stereophonic technology. Thus, the listener's brain waves are harmonized to the right frequency for lucid dreaming to be induced.
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.
In the absence of this technology, meditation techniques had to be used by most people to master lucid dreaming. Due to the austere nature of and very long time period required for mastery of the prolonged meditation which could lead to lucid dreaming, the vast majority of people just gave up in frustration.
But binaural sound wave technology can be used in tandem with hypnosis to \"fast track\" a person into the power of lucid dreaming.
