Lucid Dreams Delights.
Did you know that there exist some kinds of dreams which you can actually control while being aware that you are dreaming? These dreams are known as lucid dreams. In such dreams you are dreaming but you can direct your dreams like a movie. You can decide the actors, the setting and even the story! You can even decide the dialogues!
All kinds of emotions can be part of lucid dreams. Since you are in control of the dream, much like a director in a movie, there are no limits to what you make the lucid dreaming consist of and what the ending comes out to be.
While normal dreams are uncontrollable and completely dependent on the realms of the subconscious, lucid dreams are completely controllable. There are times when lucid dreaming becomes so vivid and so genuine that you may need to even make sure that you are dreaming!
In a lucid dream, there are certain details that might clue you into the fact it is a dream, such as colors, or items that don’t belong, for example. Much like sleep walking where the person appears to be awake, a lucid dream involves much the same type of feeling without being fully conscious of it.
There are times that you like someone and want to be with someone. However, it might not be possible in reality but it is definitely possible in a lucid dream. You can even date and marry a Hollywood star in a lucid dream.
You can change the dream so that what you want to happen is how it ends in lucid dreaming. By using your sub-conscious part of the brain that controls creativity and imagination to control your dream and picture how it would be if your dreams came true, a lucid dream can be a way to see that possibility.
Lucid dreams are very much possible. Though the body needs to revive itself for the next day by sleeping and resting, it is possible for your mind to be partly conscious.
Lucid dreaming is not something that everyone experiences or can master easily. It can be learned with proper techniques over a period of time.
You can begin by doing some dream recall everyday. Each day try to recall the dreams that you had in the night. You need to remember them to the last possible detail. It’s a great idea to keep some paper and pen handy to record your dreams. In the beginning you may not recall all the details. That’s not a problem. However, with constant practice, you will find dreams repeating themselves. This will enable you to completely record your dream. Make this a habit and soon you will have all your dreams recorded and can refer to them when you want.
Famous authors have used lucid dreaming to gather ideas for their next book or movie. Creating scenes, characters and the final ending is a large part in lucid dreams. Lucid dreaming is a way to get to know your minds inner thoughts and wishes because you are aware enough to pay attention.
If you have ever dozed back to sleep after you have awoken from a lucid dream, you may have experienced where you can almost consciously return to where you were before you woke up. When you re-enter the dream, it may be easier to recall if you forget some details or you may end up changing some of the details when you dream the second time around.
Waking before your normal time is the time when the brain is in the best mode for lucid dreaming. Some people even dream themselves getting up and ready for work, only to spring out of bed almost late for work because the lucid dream seemed so real.
With practice it will become easier each passing day. Self hypnosis is also a great way to enhance your lucid dreaming experience.
Several other options, like binaural beats, for example have been used to help induce a semi-conscious state that resembles or can put the brain into lucid dream mode almost instantly by using sound waves to coordinate and stimulate the proper portions of the brain for lucid dreaming.
