all right so what happened is I made a video before called the five worst
things to do in a lucid dream it went really well a lot of people watched it
but I was thinking about this other day there are actually a lot more things
that you shouldn't do in the lucid dream there's a lot more things that you
should never do in a lucid dream and there are a number of reasons for that
so let's just get right into in this video we're gonna be talking about the
ten things right let me just get a thumbnail ten things that you should
never do in a lucid dream and there's a good reason for each one so if a couple
of these are the same as the other video just ignore I'm going to give some new
insights everything most of them will be a brand new number one you should never
lucid dream about real events or conversations you could have with a
person in real life the reason for that is dream memories can get very easily
mixed up with lucid dream memories so if you have a lucid dream and in that dream
you talk to your partner and you maybe have an argument with them or you tell
them how you truly feel what can happen is you can wake up and then remember
that conversation as if it had actually happened right because it's so similar
to waking life you can remember as if it actually happened and then in that way
you get confused you say to your partner oh don't you remember we talked about
this last night you know or the night before or even a month ago and they'll
say you know what do you mean we've never spoken about this and you can get
confused and it can get a bit awkward and annoying never dream or lucid dream
about real conversations with real people because you'll have a really hard
time of distinguishing between what happened what actually happened and what
was a lucid dream memory number two understand your straight into and say
this sex lucid dreaming sex I would completely advise against simply because
you're in a lucid dream right you can literally do anything that you can
possibly imagine so why would you choose sex you can have sex in waking life
right obviously it's not as guaranteed because in a lucid dream you can do
whatever you want and dream characters will often just go along with where you
said yes but that being said you could literally do anything you don't mean
like you could fly circles around Pluto if you wanted to you could do anything
you can imagine so lucid dreaming sex is just not really on the top of my
priority list especially as now I can do many more things in a lucid dream and
that another thing is that when you have sex unlisted remit
excite to you and arouses you it wakes you up and that therefore cuts your
lucid dreaming time in half because you're just gonna wake yourself up so I
wouldn't advise to do that err lucid dream at all unless you're a beginner in
which case it's fine right I mean a lot of people one of the main things they
learn later dreaming for is to have sex so that's fine but if you if you're more
experienced if you have more lucid dreams I would advise against it simply
because you could do anything else number three don't think about you're
dreaming body so obviously when you're lucid dreaming your actual real body is
laying there in bed but don't let that thought into your mind and if it does
try and dissuade you know try and ignore that thought as much as you can because
if you think about your body laying there asleep it's gonna be very hard to
get lucid again it's just gonna make you think oh and it's gonna bring your
awareness back to your real-life body and that's gonna make you lose lucidity
and before don't close your eyes it sort of goes without saying if you close your
eyes what's normally gonna happen is you're gonna end your lucid dream or
wake up five and this might surprise you a bit don't do things that are too
exciting and that is simply because the same principle as a lucid dreaming sex
the more exciting the thing that you're doing in a lucid dream the more likely
you're going to wake up and just end the lucid dream so try and do things that
you that you want to do obviously things that are exciting and interesting but
not so exciting that they wake you up okay so number six don't spin around too
fast okay so one of the best ways of stabilizing a lucid dream and making the
dream last longer is to spin around on the spot you can also do things like
rubbing your palms together and telling yourself I will become more lucid or
upstate whatever the case is but if you spin around too fast okay if you start
doing you know little pets and you start drilling yourself into the into the
floor you're gonna wake up very quickly because you're gonna feel dizzy
you're gonna normally what happens is if you spin too fast your vision actually
fades to black Ness and then you wake up so if you do need to stabilize the dream
try and do it in a way that won't wake you up try and do things like rubbing
your hands together the best way I found is just to ask the dream itself you know
can you help me stay here longer or can you
helped me become more lucid now I'm gonna get on to dream commands in a
second because they are some of the worst things you can do if you say the
wrong thing if you ask the dream the wrong thing bad idea what number we are
now okay so number seven don't look into a mirror if you want to look into a
dream mirror obviously make that your goal and then set aside an entire lucid
dream to exploring dreamer dream mirrors I should say because the mirror
experiment is one which is really interesting but then once you've done it
you don't really need to look into mirrors because when you look into a
dream mirror you're not gonna see an accurate representation of yourself
anyway it's gonna be like a distorted mangled image based on what you how you
feel about yourself or based on your feelings at the time your feelings the
previous day so it's just it's gonna be a confusing and awkward and even scary
experience for a lot of people so it's just not really worth doing more than
one or two times okay so number eight is actually a dream command now let's just
recap before I get into this a dream command is when you tell the lucid dream
something directly so you say to the lucid dream you shout out loud become
more lucid or increase the brightness and what will happen is the lucid dream
your subconscious mind will respond by changing the actual dream that you're
experiencing so that's that dream commands are that what you should never
do in a lucid dream is tell the dream to show you something scary because well
you know spoiler alert the dream will show you something scary but because
it's your subconscious because it's actually you that will be showing
yourself something scary your subconscious mind knows your deepest
fears your subconscious mind knows exactly what will terrify you so much so
that you'll wake up you know like shaking so don't ask the subconscious
dream to show you something scary because it will show you something scary
and it won't be good obviously if you want to experience something really
terrifying then go ahead and see what it can show you but just bear in mind that
it is your subconscious mind it knows what you're scared of and it will show
you that very vividly number nine is kind of one building on a myth but it's
sort of a half truth as well so there is a myth that you can get stuck in a lucid
dream obviously you cannot get stuck in a lucid dream
but number nine is something I would suggest to never do in a lucid dream and
that is to ask the subconscious mind or ask the dream itself trap me in this
dream you should never tell the dream to trap
you in the dream because as I said before you see some code it's your
subconscious mind it is very powerful and it can make you feel like you're
trapped in the dream okay it can make it can turn the experience
into a lucid nightmare so when you say something like that when you're sort of
testing the boundaries and you want to experience something a bit scary just
bear in mind that it will be scary if you tell the de lucid dream to trap you
it will give you the experience of being trapped and it will go then instantly in
one moment it will go from being a lucid dream to being a lucid nightmare and
that is terrifying number 10 you should never try and fly too soon in the lucid
dream in itself if you try it if you become lucid say if you do reality check
and you instantly become lucid you know you're dreaming a lot of people will
then immediately try and jump up in the air and fly around and well that is good
and you can most the time you can fly it's not gonna be as easy as if you just
wait a bit and stabilize your lucid dream and become lucid properly okay
what will normally happen is you'll try and fly too soon you'll meet some sort
of wall or some sort of mental barrier or boundary where you try and do
something and you just can't do it you know you're you fall back to the ground
or you lose lucidity or things start fading to black and what that is is
you're trying to push yourself too far it's like you're trying to climb a hill
into higher gear you're not really ready for it yet you need to change down and
build up slowly so when if you try and fly too soon what's gonna happen is
you're gonna overload yourself and just wake up or just stop yourself and it's
very frustrating one of the most annoying things ever is when you're in a
lucid dream you know you're dreaming and you try and do something and you find
that you can't do it and more often than not that's because you're not properly
lucid you need to stabilize the dream with stabilization techniques you need
to do more reality checks you need to either meditate in the dream or out of
the dream or both and then build up to it slowly and that is it guys that is
the 10 things I would say never to do in a lucid dream if you enjoyed this video
