lucid dreaming eight effective methods and techniques for success
welcome in this video I would describe effective methods and techniques to
induce lucid dreaming that have worked for me and for many others then I will
give you techniques to hold onto and also change the lucid dreams once they
begin
what is lucid dreaming lucid dreaming is simply the act of becoming aware
that you were dreaming while you are asleep and having a dream
why lucid dreaming when you become aware that you were in a dream you can then
influence the dream you are in or even change it completely
the amount of fun you can have with this is unlimited but the benefits go way
beyond firm for instance you can find answers to real world problems
explore your inner makings or even visit other dimensions and other life forms
more on that some of the time but now let's get to the techniques the oldest
known method to have a lucid dream is to look for your hands in your dreams
before you go to sleep
look at your hands and vow to find your hands in a dream
when you do see your hands in a dream and realize that you are dreaming a
special hidden mode of awareness takes over an awareness of your sublime side the hands
are a popular suggestion because they will always be there but you can choose
any trigger you wish to look for in a dream
just simply choose a trigger of your liking and associate that with dreaming
one major thing that has helped me is to start a dream journal every time you
wake up and remember a dream write it down this will improve your dream recall
after all what good is it to have a lucid dream if you don't remember it
this can also help you track what kind of dreams you're having
by tracking your dreams you can help yourself in another way if you are
having a recurring theme in your dreams you can make it a goal to realize you're
dreaming next time you have the same kind of dream use the recurring dream to
associate dreaming
next one of the best ways to ensure that you have a lucid dream is to do several
reality checks each day
take a moment look at your hands and ask yourself is this a dream could I be
dreaming this moment right now
the reason this works is because your dreams
tend to partially mimic your reality I do this every time I can remember to and
just the other night during a dream out of habit I did a reality check in my
dream I said is this a dream it seemed to like an absurd question at the time
it always does but as it turns out it was a dream after all
so how can you tell us a dream when you're in one try this when you look at
your hands while you are awake they stay hands and nothing happens but when you
look at your hands in a dream they would distort or something will change and
that's the giveaway that you are dreaming
if you have tried all of this and nothing seems to work and you feel like
you are stuck then try changing some of your routines like taking on a new
route when you drive somewhere or putting on your belt the opposite way you could go
somewhere different or try something new just for the heck of it the stimulation
was stirred things up in your mind and will usually shake things up in the
Dreaming world as well to your benefit
supposing that you do realize you are dreaming what's next for most people the
shock of lucid dreaming can be enough to wake you or sometimes the dream falls
apart and goes to crazytown
the key to holding onto a lucid dream is to stay calm and anchor your awareness
to an object I start with my hands and then focus my awareness on another
object for just a few seconds then go back to my hands then another object
back to my hands and so forth until the scene becomes stable once stable to make
changes to the dream simply say what you want or think it and it will happen it's
as simple as that
steady practice of this technique will give you full control of your lucid
dreams from there the possibilities of what you can do are beyond limits I hope
this video helps you and I wish you all the success in the multiverse thanks for
