What does a lucid dream look like?
In today's video, I'm going to share with you the reality of what it's like to be
in a lucid dream so let's get started.
Hi dreamers, where you've probably seen those videos here on YouTube claiming
to show you what a lucid dream looks like, but normally, They're just someone
lazily borrowing someone else's footage normally from superhero films or skydiving
or some kind of extreme sport thrown together with a bit of inspirational
music and not really anything of value
but is that what Lucid dreaming really looks like?
Well, the answer is unsurprisingly no unfortunately, you've been catfished
when it comes to lucid dreaming.
You know when you see an advert for a burger and it looks really delicious
and plump, and then you go to the store buy the burger, and you get
this floppy little piece of rubbish
well, essentially that's what these, what lucid dreaming
looks like videos are doing.
They're giving you false information about the reality of lucid dreaming.
So if you want to know what lucid dreaming really looks like Today I'm going to
share with you five true facts about what lucid dreaming looks like number.
Five.
Very normal indeed well, this is unsurprising because you've spent
your entire life, here in reality, in the normal world experiencing normal
things from the mundane to the super interesting, but mostly pretty average.
And your dreams basically reflect what your life is about so when you're in
a lucid dream, you are not instantly a superhero with amazing instant superhero
powers normally, you are in your bedroom or in your living room or hanging out
with your friends or some other pretty average dream scene, lucid dream.
Most of them start off somewhere very, very normal indeed.
Number four.
Kind of dark now, this is something that nobody really tells you about, but
often lucid dreams will start in dark scenery especially if you get lucid
at the very beginning of the dream.
So it could be a room with most of the lights off or a rainy nighttime
street something like that.
This is because often in the dream world, the visual element is the last
thing to form and if you fall into a dream consciously, From waking life, so
a maintained awareness dream often the visual element hasn't fully formed yet,
but the same can happen near the end of the dream as you are nearing waking up
so be prepared for some lucid dreams to be a little dark mysterious, dark
scenery normally in pretty average places like a street, but don't worry
about it You just need to wait for the visuals to switch on the best thing to
do is to head towards a source of light.
Number three, without time now, this is a bit of a weird one, but obviously
dreams don't exist in the physical world
they are not constrained by time.
So you might find yourself in a lucid dream that looks like the
1980s or the 1940s or the time of dinosaurs or the far future lucid
dreams can look like anything, and anywhere and any time number two.
A mirror of you so lucid dreams are built from your personality and
your memories and your interests
so your world of lucid dreaming is going to look like the inside of your mind
so if you are a gamer, Your dreams may well reflect the gaming environments
that you play if you are someone who spends a lot of time in nature, it's
likely your dreams will be in nature if you're someone who lives in a city, your
dreams are likely to have cityscapes
it really depends on where you've experienced in your waking life
and what your interests are.
So lucid dreams can be absolutely fantastical and really far out and
multidimensional but they can also be.
Incredibly boring and very, very average they're all the
things that make up who you are.
So basically your dreams will reflect you
they are an interdimensional mirror of self.
Number one, the operating system of the mind so when you get past your
early lucid dreams, the ones that are based in the same perception as waking
life you can start to peel away the layers of the mind and you'll realize
that what you're experiencing is the software, the operating system that
the mind runs on the subconscious mind
now, this is where the magic happens because things can suddenly get very
strange and very surreal indeed.
If you think that superhero fantasies are an interesting kind of lucid dream,
try delving into the true nature of the subconscious if you've heard about
DMT experiences or psychedelics those are only scratching the surface of
what the subconscious mind is like.
You can go hopping through seemingly alternate dimensions of
reality you can see the code of the mind unraveled lucid dreaming.
When you truly push the envelope, when you start to explore deeply
becomes very, very surreal.
So be prepared for the most transcendental, crazy experiences
of your life and finding out that you are a much stranger creature.
Then you realize.
So the reality is anyone claiming that they can tell you what lucid dreaming
looks like by giving you a five minute video of extreme sports and Marvel action
is basically diminishing the wonders of lucid dreaming let's put it another way.
What does a human life look like?
You can't condense that into a video.
The human experience is vast and impossible to pin down there are so many
things that you can experience, so many places you can be So many thoughts you
can have and dreams are that amplified and elevated and without boundaries.
So what does lucid dreaming look like?
Well, it looks like the vast diversity of existence and life and thought
it cannot be expressed in words or images alone.
You have to live it you have to open that door and explore for yourself so
are you ready to take the adventure into the world of lucid dreaming?
And if you are ready, let me know, right?
Hell yes!
I'm ready!
