Walkthrough To Start Lucid Dreaming Tonight
Lucid dreaming is the method by which a sleeping person recognizes and masters control of their dreams.
But since they take place in the subconscious mind , lucid dreams can be difficult to experience . It’s challenging to first recognize when you’re in a dream and even harder to stay asleep once you realize you’re in it!
Lucid dreaming is, first and foremost, a journey . Lucid dreaming only works through the expansion of a person’s ability to stay conscious or “lucid.” That is, you need to learn to be Lucid in real life out of habit . These habits carry through to your subconscious and act as cues to help you recognize when you are dreaming.
So let’s take a look at something simple you can do right now to improve your lucidity…
Look at your hands every day. In lucid dreams, hands look weird . They can be too large , too small, fade in and out of reality, blur together, or any multitude of otherworldly possibilities.
The key here is that they will look different than they do in real life . If you look at your hands often daily, even just once per hour, you will program your mind to keep this habit up even while you sleep .
It is easy to remember and under the radar to check your reality this way. Check your hands while you’re at school, or sitting at the dinner table, or meeting your buddies for a movie, or getting ready to walk your dog…
The Day You Look Down At Your Hands And They Look Strange , Congratulations - You’re In A Lucid Dream!
Now, don’t get over excited – you’ve got to anchor yourself in the Dream World. Some experienced dreamers spin around in circles or hold onto physical objects to help them get a “grip” on their new reality. Others stop and focus on their feelings and the scene in front of them until it comes into clear focus.
Whatever worked best for you , now you’re free to do what you want , be who you want to be, and get lucid dreaming! Your options are limitless – but if this is your first time , I recommend flying first to test your new powers. You see, all of your abilities are based on how much you believe you can use them. If there exists any doubt in your mind, it will show up in the way you fly – so here’s the secret to getting your wings:
Stay in the feeling of achieving what you want . If you’re having trouble, try asking yourself:
“How would it feel if I could fly? How might I move my body if I were soaring through the air right now? How would I change direction in mid- flight? Would I fly like super man or paddle through the air like a fish?”
Experiment any way you can think of – lucid dreaming is unique to each person , so don’t expect any single technique to make it happen. Be patient, work with yourself, and get to know what works best for you to get results with lucid dreaming.
