lucid dreaming
    #5307916 - 02/16/06 05:27 PM (18 years, 3 days ago)

Lately I've been reading on the subject of lucid dreaming and I find it fascinating. I was wondering if there were any regular lucid dreamers out there that might have any tips or suggestions about it. I've started a dream journal and I've had at least one lucid dream that I can recall. It just seems like its so much wasted time if you aren't awake in your dreams.

From what I know, there is no "recipe" to do it. But I can tell you worked for me, I don't know if it will work for you. So first of all, it has to happen in period when if have no problems, at least not big problems on your mind. A non-annoying period to be more exact.
Now here's what I did: I wanted from a Long tome to have lucid dreams, so I decided to concentrate on it. To think about it as much as possible. To ask for it, to really want it. And.... it happened relatively soon.
My first lucid dream wasn't even complicated. Is was simple, like as to proof me that it's possible. So here's hoe it was: I was just walking down a street, while it just popped my mind: is it possible that I'm having a lucid dream? Let's check it out. So I was near a building and I tried to go through it. Which happened. I was able to see while I was going through it to see the bricks that were put in the building, and then go through the other side.
The dead is to have "reality checks" even when you are awake, with the purpose to turn it into a habit. That way you'll do it while you're dreaming,which, of course leads to realize that YOU ARE actually dreaming. And there it's where the fun starts.
I even once, in a lucid dream, was able to visit space.
Good luck, and be patient, it might take a while, but anybody can do it.

I wish I could remember my dreams. They are forgotten the second I wake up. =/

Yes but this is only a matter of exercise. Try to keep you eye closed and your mind as free of thoughts as possible every time when you up. You Will start to remember them.

yes i agree, exercise is the keydom to success. a pattern is anything that repeats, right? So, most of the time when we dream its just meant to be forgotten; I think we dream to realign and make-absence-mean something. Dreams are for up-scotching around difficulties and buckling down to make lucid sense of things; when you get the chance for that take it!! I think to learn how to lucid dream, read a difficult but interesting book or try drawing a while while only looking at your hand, use your peripheral to form the picture. also, dream journals may do that very thing, it's your choice. Good Luck!

don't wake up!

probably 1/3 of the times you wake up from a dream you can back into it lucidly, all you gotta do is not move a single muscle or open your eyes or do ANYTHING. this way you are 75% in the dream still and only 25% in waking reality, as your brain has just spent a long time in an artificial world...

sort of a hangover effect.

so you just focus real intently on going right back to where you came from, and you can.

One of the simplest things is to just start saying in your mind "Hey, can anyone help pull me back into the dream?" If there was a person you were dreaming about, ask him, if there wasn't..... ask someone you know to help you.

I promise it works that simply. Just DON'T MOVE A MUSCLE when you wake up! If it takes you longer than a minute to do or you have to actually go to "sleep" to do it then you can go ahead and give up though, otherwise it is a direct 100% conscious re-entry to the dream.

Read the book Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming by Stephen Laberge. If u follow what it says it is very easy to have lucid dreams at free will.

some tips

first you have to have at least 1 dream you remember every night cause whats the point of having a lucid dream if u don't remember it. This can be accomplished buy a dream journal like your doing.

Another thing you can do to have more dreams is during the day realize all your senses. Remember how things smell, textures of objects every little detail of your surrounding from the sign to the crack in the ground. Also remember how things taste and sound. Also notice your emotions. In your dreams these should be just as real. Dream states should be just as real as your actual life

next when u got about 12 dreams in your journal read back over them and try to find recurrences of things that happen which can only happen in your dream. these are called dream signs. For example one of my dream signs is driving a car but no matter what i do it wont go where i want. this happens in lots of my dreams. once you realize some of your dream signs you'll notice them while your dream. Like when i realize hey man why isn't the car in control o I'm in a dream.

A good tip to realize your in a dream is looking at digital clocks. Look at the clock and then look away and back. The second time you look at it it will say something different. This doesn't work with old style clocks.

Another thing you can do is during the day when something dreamlike happens actually ask yourself is this a dream and consider if you are or not. do this like 10 times a day and eventually you'll be so used to it you'll do it in your sleep.

Once you start having lucid dreams set yourself goals. Tell yourself to have 2 lucid dreams within the next month. Make sure the goals aren't impossible.

Once your in your dreams you need to be able to learn how to control them. you can start by making yourself levitate things like that. That also helps realize your in a dream

o yeah i almost forgot. Also to increase dreams sleep in longer. I forgot the numbers concerning REM periods. REM periods are the state where you have dreams. Basically they start off at every 90 minutes and the longer you sleep the closer the REM periods occur. Also they start off only lasting a few minutes but the longer you sleep the longer they last.

Another trick to having dreams for those of you who cant sleep in is wake up in the middle of the night and stay up a couple of hours. Then go back to sleep. This works amazingly well. I usually only stay up for 15 to 30 minutes and i have great results.

I'd love to ludic dream

Did it once, but it was toward the end, so it was pretty useless

But my dreams are so fucked up and random I don't even think it matters

I am also a lucid dreamer.

Sometimes I have dreams that are vivid as hell, but it can't put my finger on WTF is happening.... but sometimes I do catch onto whats going on...

as soon as I figure out im dreaming, I either grab the nearest female to me, or do something violent like throw somebody down a flight of strairs.

Why you ask? I have no fuckin Idea...

Lately Ive gotten the hang of staying inside of a lucid dream without letting it slip away. I couldnt tell you exactly what my technique is, but i think it goes along the linesa of telling myself "Its a dream, its real, its a dream, its real, its a dream, its real"........

My problem is I usually wake us just shortly after I gain lucidity. Sometimes I can finish the whole dream. I have yet to find any patterns or signs as to why sometimes I wake up and other times I don't, it seems completely random.

Anyone have any experience teaching yourself to stay asleep once you become lucid?

Being awake in a dream, is much like this..


Only, one recall being here, while there..

As opposed to this reality, where few ever recall, being there..

It happens to me sometimes. I'll be dreaming and I'll know I am but I keep going along with it. I had a dream once my cat George was knocking on my bedroom door and he could talk. He said "Let me in asshole" and he jumped on my bed and was telling me how I used to treat him like a piece of shit, but we can still be friends (I used to tease him a lot when I was young). We had this whole conversation and the whole time I knew I was dreaming. It was weird as hell and I can remember most of the conversation. It's a funny story to tell among my friends.
