Lucid Dreams – Experience Every Fantasy!

You may not know about lucid dreams yet, but they are real and are an amazing experience. A lucid dream is a dream where you are conscious of the fact that you are dreaming; and best of all, you’re in total control of your dream! You can take the reins and take your dream anywhere that you want to go.

It’s like having your own movie studio with an unlimited budget – anything you want to see or experience is within your power to make happen.

Lucid dreams are noticeably different than the dreams you’re used to having while you sleep; these regular dreams are guided by their own sort of logic and drift along without your input. By contrast, lucid dreams are under your control and seem real, regardless of how far out the events may be.

You can usually tell a lucid dream apart from other dreams through this technique; try reading something in your dream. If the words keep changing or do not form intelligible language, then you’re having a regular dream. If you can read and even dictate the contents of your reading material, then you are lucid dreaming.

When youre lucid dreaming, anything you imagine is possible. You can live out any fantasy you have, meet anyone you want and go anywhere.

Another thing which differentiates a lucid dream from ordinary ones is that if you want to change the outcome of an event in your dream, all you have to do is to think about it and it will happen! A lot of people find that lucid dreaming is beneficial to them in that they can think through things which have happened in their lives and think about the other ways the situation could have gone. This can help you come to terms with tragedy and misfortune.

Lucid dreams are something which anyone can learn to do. While your body needs to rest to take care of essential biological functions like cellular repair, you can do so while a part of your mind remains conscious and active. This is what occurs in lucid dreaming.

You’ll need to practice lucid dreaming before you’re able to do it at will. This can take some time, so keep practicing and be patient; these dreams will come to you with time.

The best way to begin is by keeping a dream journal. Write down everything you can remember from your dreams as soon as you awake. Keep a pad and pen within arm’s length of your bed so that you can write down every detail quickly. You may not remember everything every time – be patient. You will get better at this with time and training your mind to remember your dreams and recognize when it is dreaming will help you to start having lucid dreams.

In fact, writers have been known to keep records of their lucid dreams to help them plan out characters and plots for their stories and novels. Lucid dreaming is a good way to exercise your creativity and try some new ideas.

Making a habit of recalling your dreams will help you to pick the thread of your dreams back up when you return to sleep. Dreams tend to recur, so you can pick up more and more detail with each recurrence.

Lucid dreaming happens most readily in the hour or two before you are accustomed to waking up. When you wake early and go back to bed at these times, you often lucid dream; it seems as if you’ve just been thinking as you lie in bed, but once the alarm goes off, you know that you’ve been dreaming!

To get yourself to the mental state where lucid dreaming is possible, you can use relaxation and meditation techniques along with dream recall. A lot of people find that self hypnosis can help them train their minds for dream recall quickly and efficiently.

One new advance in audio technology can also be of assistance to you in learning to have lucid dreams. Binaural beats are specially recorded frequencies which attune the two hemispheres of your brain to the proper frequency to reach a lucid dreaming state.
