Understanding Lucid Dreaming




A lucid dream is a dream in which you are aware that you are dreaming. Frederik van Eeden conjured the word 'lucid' regarding a sense of  intense mental clarity. Lucid dreaming occurs when you realize that what you are dreaming is not real. Lucid Dreaming can have positive effects on your psychological state of mind. Resulting in a calm, and stable concious life.

Dream InterpretationAm I Lucid Dreaming?

It's simple, you will say to yourself while dreaming " This is only a dream" You will enjoy great control throughout these dreams. If your dreaming of happy, intensely erotic or fantastic situations you will have the power to "keep dreaming. If you are experienceing a nightmare or find yourself in an uncomfortable or terrifying situation, you will have the power to control the conclusion of the dream by ending the dream and wakeing yourself up. Lucid Dreaming has been described by many as the "Ultimate Virtual Reality!"

Anything is possible in a lucid dream. Dreamers can fly, and demonstrate heroic feats!! Lucid dreaming is easy to acheive. You just have to belive that you can.

dream interpretationTehniques to Lucid Dreaming


This is vital! Set up a dream journal, and write your dreams in it every morning when you wake up. Writing your dreams will help you identify and remember your dreams.

Say to yourself "Next time I'm dreaming I will realize that I am dreaming".

To become consciously aware during your dreams, Train your awareness during the day. Look at your surroundings and stay completely aware of your environment. Notice Colors sights sounds and smells.

Several times throughout the day, ask yourself "Am I dreaming or awake?".  Sounds silly but this is extremely effective!!  Ask yourself this question about ten times a day.

After five days examine your dream journal pick out your most common dream symbol. For example, have you dreamt about swimming pools, the Ocean, and a Harbor? If so, Water will be the common dream symbol for the week. Look for your dream symbol throughout the day. Take notice of your symbol during your concious state during the day.

While falling asleep, repeatedly ask yourself, if you are dreaming yet.

If you wake up during the night, get out of bed, drink some water and walk around a bit. After about ten minutes, return to bed. many Avid Lucid dreamers swear by this technique!!
