Lucid Dream - How To Get Started
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.
This is nothing short of the metaphysical. Your limitations are lifted; you can do the 'impossible'.
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?
Well, as powerful as it is, lucid dreaming is really not that hard at all. But you do need fierce determination to condition your mind in the right way; you've got to want it.
However, you must determine clearly your objective for trying to master the art of lucid dreaming. Do you simply want your own private getaway in the form of lucid dreams or do you have a particular reason for developing your skills? No matter your reason, you must have clarity of mind for its purpose.
A Dream Recall Register (dream journal) in which you write down (and/or sketch) as many details as you are able to recall about your dreams on a daily basis needs to used here, because this often a painfully slow process for many people. Nevertheless, slowly but surely, you’ll come to start remembering even the most understated, minor details of your dreams. Now, you need to give yourself some reality checks when you're dreaming, too: like, if you walk through a wall, tell yourself, 'How strange that I just walked through a wall!' This will greatly help you train your mind more deeply in lucid dreaming.
Also, many have discovered that hypnosis, and even only a session or two, can drastically cut down on their necessary prep-time for making their subconscious mind ready to experience lucid dreaming.
Many people have used hypnosis to dramatically reduce the time they need to train their subconscious mind to engage in lucid dreaming. Many times merely one of two hypnosis sessions permit one to consistently remember all of their dreams, so they are prepared for lucid dreaming.
Now when you start trying to practice lucid dreaming, you could find that you suddenly awaken from a dream--and then you'll find yourself able to recall that dream immediately. be All you need do at this point is relax and let yourself drift back to sleep, and you'll be able to enter that same dream and pick up right where you left off. Upon waking, you will now know that you have the great power of lucid dreaming coming fully under your control.
You can also induce lucid dreaming by going back to sleep just a couple of hours after you get up in the morning. This type of dreaming can cause you to wonder if you were really dreaming or if you have somehow manifested your thought-forms into reality. Dreaming at this time is the closest you can get to actual lucid dreaming.
Insomnia can be cured with lucid dreaming, too! If you can't get to sleep when you put your head down on that pillow, all you need to is suggest to your mind that to sleep is to lucid dream, and you'll find your mind will take care of everything and make it so you can sleep soundly.
Lucid dreaming is potent for helping cure insomnia. All you must do is suggest to your mind that sleeping means the same thing as lucid dreaming, and then your own subconscious mind will take care of all the thoughts that are preventing you from falling asleep.
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.
One of the quickest and most efficient means of learning how to lucid dream is by listening to binaural audios.
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.
Through listening to the binaural waves of sound, and especially when these are enhanced by hypnosis for preparing the subconscious mind, you can experience lucid dreaming very soon after just your first try.
When binaural sound waves and hypnosis are used for preparing the subconscious mind it is very possible for you to experience lucid dreaming sooner.
