Lucid Dreaming
Techniques
There are some different ways to learn how to lucid dream and
ways to make it happen. Here are some different ways to learn
this dreaming technique.
Have you ever been interested in dreams and this spiritual and
also untapped part of your mind? Or have you ever wanted to
understand what your dreams were about or what the symbols you
keep seeing in them meant? There is a way you can do this and
it is through lucid dreaming. Lucid dreaming is when you are
fully conscious in your dream and have complete control over
what happens in your dreams. You are essentially awake in your
dream and realize that it is only a dream and not really
happening. Lucid dreaming is a technique that can be developed
and cultivated. Many people can make lucid dreams happen
easily, with very little effort, while others do have to work
at it and develop their skills. Either way everyone can learn
to lucid dream. Here are a few simple ways to begin lucid
dreaming:
*
Before actually trying to have a lucid dream, you will need to
start remembering your dreams. Lucid dreams cannot happen
unless you can remember and recognize you are having a dream
at all. So, start to work on remembering your dreams. The
better you are remembering your dreams, the easier lucid
dreaming will become. You will need to intend to remember your
dreams, as time goes on this will become easier and happen
more naturally.
*
Write your dreams down as soon as you wake up. This will help
you to remember dreams and will also help to give you insight
when you are lucid dreaming. Knowing what symbols to look for
or the questions to ask will make your lucid dream a more
fulfilling experience. Have a plan ready for how you will
record your dreams, whether you plan to write them by hand or
type them up on the computer, know what you’re going to do so
you can get down as much information as possible about your
dream.
*
Keeping track of themes and symbols that pop up again and
again will make remembering them easier and you will be
looking for these themes in your dreams. Also, some of these
recurring themes and symbols can actually help you to have a
lucid dream.
*
Always make time to lucid dream. Give yourself time to sleep
and dream, removing and lessening the amount of stress in your
life will make lucid dreaming happening more easily and
naturally. Pick a specific time to start trying to lucid
dream, maybe on weekends when you are not getting up as early
for work or while on a vacation when everyday life is not
interfering as much. Making time for yourself and your dreams
is the best way to truly begin your lucid dreaming
experiences.
*
Of course, take your time. Do not try to rush lucid dreaming;
it definitely will not happen then. You must be relaxed and
open to dreaming, trying to make it happen will cause stress
and the dreams will not come. As you begin how to lucid dream,
do not try to do too much in each dream. A little at a time
and let things happen naturally as you are comfortable with
it.
*
Never try too hard to lucid dream. The harder you try many
times the less chance you have of lucid dreaming. Becoming
frustrated will impede your progress and the more things you
try that do not work will only further frustrate the
situation. Take a rest from lucid dreaming if things are not
working, sometimes not trying at all will make a lucid dream
happen.
*
Lastly, do a reality check when you are unsure if you are
dreaming or not. Typically, if you have to ask if your
dreaming, then you are. Have a few different ways available to
yourself to check to see if you are dreaming, that way if you
are still unsure after the first test you still others you can
try next. Try to levitate or walk through a wall, mirror, or
window. Looking at clocks or reading a page in a book works
too. Clocks and books are never the same the second time you
look at them.
Lucid dreaming is a technique like anything else and has to be
practiced and work on. Over time lucid dreaming will become
easier to do and more fun when you are able to easily go into
a lucid dream. So, do not give up and keep working on making
those dreams happen.
