Lucid dreams can be more real than reality

To many people lucid dreams are a very spiritual experience. When they tell others about lucid dreaming are often laughed at or viewed as wierd because of the many misconceptions in our society about lucid dreams. We at Dream2Live.com hope to make Lucid Dreaming accessable to all by discrediting those misconceptions and introducing some magic back into your life.

Consider this: if the average person spends 7 hours a day sleeping, and lives till 75 years, then they have slept nearly 22 years of their life away. It’s possible, however, to get more life out of those wasted years through lucid dreaming and dream control. Before being able to control your dreams you have to be able to recognize that you are dreaming.

"I have read many books and heard many people talk about OBE or lucid dreaming. They were all interesting and very informative but none of them came close to the information I got from the video. Over the years I tried many techniques with no success. After reading the testimonial on the saltcube web page I told myself ''Why not, maybe this information could make a difference''. I'm glad I bought it. I had multiple lucid dreams using your special timer software. All I can say to breifly explain what this video brought me is the ability to experience a different state of cousciouness by giving me simple and not complicated information.

The basic definition of lucid dreaming is - "being aware you are dreaming while in the dream state."

I’d like to make sure that you are wanting to learn how to lucid dream for the right reasons and also understands the possible consequences involved with excessive force. First, lucid dreaming should not be used to escape from reality. I cannot stress that enough—there is a real world out there, and lucid dreaming is best used both as a recreational activity and to aid in personal development. Lucid dreams should not be used as a vehicle to displace reality.

Secondly, lucid dreaming is best sought after in moderation. We live in an impatient society and allowing an attitude of impatience into your dream life could have a detrimental effect on something that was intended to help keep you healthy, happy and clear-headed. Please, proceed slowly and don’t use too much force when experimenting with lucid dreams. You certainly don’t want to awake in the morning feeling exhausted. If you find yourself feeling abnormally tired then lessen the frequency of your lucid dreaming sessions.

The basic definition of lucid dreaming is - "being aware you are dreaming while in the dream state." A lucid dream usually occurs when you are in the middle of a regular dream and suddenly realizes that you are dreaming. The person is now said to be "lucid," and may enter one of many levels of lucidity. At the lowest level, the dreamer may be dimly aware that he or she is dreaming, but not think rationally enough to realize that events / people / actions in the dream are not real/pose no real threat. At the highest level, on the other hand, the dreamer is fully aware that she or he is asleep, and may have complete control over his or her actions in the dream. It is possible to control your dreams by employing the lucid dreaming methods that follow.

But remember, when lucid dreaming, your subconscious mind will continually try to regain control of the dream. You might be driving a Ferarri through the Alpine mountain and suddenly a police car pulls along side you, with sirens blazing and lights flashing. Once you submit to the dream character by pulling the car to the side and showing the officer your drivers license, you have lost control of the dream and the events that unfold in the dream. So be aware...

Lucid Dream Tips

Studies strongly suggest that a nap a few hours after waking in the morning is the most common time to have a lucid dream.

When recalling a dream upon waking, try not to move. Activating your muscle neurons can make it more difficult to access the parts of your brain that allow you to recall your dream.

Performing reality checks upon awakening can help you to detect "false awakenings" within dreams, wherein you dream that you have woken up, and thus lose lucidity.

Do not use a radio alarm clock. Once you hear talking, or a song, that will distract you, and may clear the dream out of your head. If you have to use a radio alarm clock, don't think about what is playing and quickly turn it off. Alternatively, change the radio setting to a non-assigned frequency so the alarm creates static (white noise).

When you wake up naturally -- that is, without an alarm -- focus your gaze on the first object you see as you open your eyes. Look at the object; focus on it. That object will most often take the vague recollection of your dream to a placemark in memory where it is easier to recall details. A doorknob, a lightbulb, a set of car keys, or a nail in the wall, for example, will quell your urge to begin your day, and will help you to settle into memories of what you had experienced while sleeping.

An interesting sensation is "flying" during a lucid dream. Aim for this experience and you will start enjoying lucid dreaming a lot more. To start "flying" try to start bouncing higher and higher after each step (while "walking" in the dream.) Also try walking on walls or the ceiling, as flying for the first time can be very intimidating if you are not totally convinced that you are dreaming.
