Lucid Dreaming
What is Lucid Dreaming?
First off, Dreaming is a phenomenon that all of us experience. However most often than not, we wake up with questions of what we dreamt and why we dreamt certain things and sometimes even wondered why there were unconnected strings in our dreams – like a badly directed movie.
How nice it would be if you could dream of what you want to dream, and decide how your dreams progresses, to be able to control your dreams.
This is the phenomenon of lucid dreaming
If you thought lucid dreaming is impossible – then you are wrong. Lucid Dreams are quite possible and if you want to know how – read on. Lucid Dreaming is amazing.
Dreaming, waking up, sleeping all events that are controlled by the brain and the brain in turn is controlled by the various frequency levels that operate in and around the physical being.
- The Alpha frequency state is the state when you are very much awake and active.
- The Delta Frequency prevails when you are fast asleep.
- The Theta Frequency range which is when you are capable of dreaming.
Your brain fades from one frequency to another, from Alpha through the Delta into the Theta where dreaming begins. Every once in a while we have dreams where we know we are dreaming. Lucid dreaming is about having these dreams in which we can control almost every time we dream.
To experience lucid dreaming we need to control the frequencies in the brain with brainwave entrainment. Brainwave Entrainment
Before we talk tactics, let me introduce Brainwave Entrainment for Lucid Dreaming Recording. This recording can and will make the process easier and quicker. I recommend picking up a copy of it as you practice.
The Lucid Trick
To trigger a lucid dream, you need to realize you are dreaming as I stated before. The easiest way to realize you are in a dream is by noticing something is out of place or doesn’t look right. Have You ever had a dream that you were in your home, but it didn’t look like your home? Have you ever dreamed of a relative, but that person looked different in your dream? I bet the answer is YES!
When you dream, reality doesn’t look the same as the physical world. That’s the baseline of the strategy to Lucid Dream on your demand.
How To Realize Your Dreaming
Simply Stated, Repeated Actions. You already know that dreams alter the way things appear, so what you want to do is look at something in a repeating fashion. Lets take an example of a clock. Everyday when you wake up, look at a digital clock. Notice the shape, notice the numbers, and notice the lights. When you get in your car, look at the car’s digital clock. notice the similarities between that clock and your bedroom clock. When you get to work, keep looking at the clock often. Close your eyes and picture different digital clocks. Get in the habit of picturing and looking at clocks often.
Keep repeating this clock obsession, and soon you will see a clock in your dreams. But when you see this clock in your dreams, it will not look like the standard clocks you trained your brain to focus on. It will be weird.. You will be looking at this clock confused, than all of the sudden, it will hit you… I AM DREAMING!!!
This works because most times dreams do not portray reality as is. You do not need to use the clock example, almost anything that you see daily will work. Some people constantly look at their hands, and during a dream they will look at their hands, and realize they are dreaming because their hands look weird. You can even go as far as pinching yourself often, and during your dream, you will pinch yourself and the feeling will be different. It doesn’t matter what you choose to focus on, if you repeat the process multiple times daily, you will eventually dream you are doing it. That’s when you will make a connection that your are not in a state of reality, and you must be dreaming.
Conclusion
Step 1: as described above, can be completed in a mere few days. There is not much brain practice involved, but it get a little harder from here. Once you realize you are dreaming, if you do not know what to do next, you will most likely lose control and slip back into a dream state. Our next letter is going to discuss how to progress from realizing your dreaming to starting to control your dreams. Remember, high quality Lucid Dreaming Recordings are very powerful and will assist in keeping an attentive dreaming state. High quality recordings can be found at here.
After You Realize Your Dreaming
Once you realize you are dreaming, your job isn’t done. Most times, you will realize you are dreaming, and not know what to do, so your dreams take control again. Don’t worry, that’s natural, and happens to almost everyone. If it does happen, you know you already made progress, and it’s time to conquer the rest.
The Follow Through Technique
Going back to the first example in the last newsletter when we looked at the clock repeatedly, now were going to add a step. Every day we are going to look at the clock, than immediately scratch your arm. Practice doing those two actions repeatedly. Every time we see a click, we scratch our arm.
The next time you dream of a clock, you will realize you are dreaming. Now you will dream you are scratching your arm. Hmm…. See how this works?
Premeditate your Dreaming Actions
Simply stated, the actions you want to do in your dreams will most likely need to be premeditated. It is very difficult (if not impossible) to make up your mind on what you want to do while you are dreaming. You will have to know your goal before your dreams begin, and have a way to remind yourself of what you want to do.
The possibilities are unlimited. For instance, let’s say you want to fly. Everyday, you will look at a clock then immediately say “Time To Fly”. You will pound this into your brain that a clock means it’s time to fly. Eventually, you will see a clock in your dreams, and without the need to think, you will know it’s time to fly.
Maximizing The Effects
Maintaining the correct Theta levels that border Alpha are essential. Once your brain frequencies slip into Delta, your dream will end. Our Lucid Dreaming Recording will help your brain resonate with a perfect frequency range for maximum effects.
“Dreams are rudiments of the great state to come.
We dream what is about to happen.” – BAILEY,
The ultimatum of all human decrees and wisdom is to gratify the passions of the flesh at the expense of the spirit. The prophets and those who have stood nearest the fountain of universal knowledge used dreams with more frequency than any other mode of divination.
Profane, as well as sacred, history is threaded with incidents of dream prophecy. Ancient history relates that Gennadius was convinced of the immortality of his soul by conversing with an apparition in his Lucid dream.
Cicero relates the story of two traveling Arcadians who went to different lodgings–one to an inn, and the other to a private house. During the night the latter dreamed that his friend was begging for help. The dreamer awoke; but, thinking the matter unworthy of notice, went to sleep again. The second time he dreamed his friend appeared, saying it would be too late, for he had already been murdered and his body hid in a cart, under manure. The cart was afterward sought for and the body found. Cicero also wrote, “If the gods love men they will certainly disclose their purposes to them in sleep.”
Plato concurred in the general idea prevailing in his day, that there were divine manifestations to the soul in sleep. Condorcet thought and wrote with greater fluency in his dreams than in waking life.
Aristotle wrote: “There is a divination concerning some things in dreams not incredible.”
Camille Flammarion, in his great book on “Premonitory Dreams and Divination of the Future,” says: “I do not hesitate to affirm at the outset that occurrence of dreams foretelling future events with accuracy must be accepted as certain.”
Joan of Arc predicted her death.
People dream now, the same as they did in medieval and ancient times.
