Lucid Dreams and Dream Journal


    People lose almost half of their life by sleeping. We forget approximately 95% of our dreams and the 5% that we do remember, as time goes, fades away in brains memory. While we sleep our mind passes through certain fazes and we dream only in one of them. The name of the faze that is mentioned is RAM faze or Rapid Eye Movement faze and that’s the only segment of sleep when we are able to see visual imagery and hear sounds created by our brain. Is dreaming only a biological process, or there is something behind that, more complex than we know? Answer to that question is YES. If you are familiar with Astral Projection (talked about in the first post), we can merge dreaming and AP to basically same thing, but there is a little difference: When we dream we are not in control of our Astral body, we are left to wonder the Astral plane subconsciously, and when we perform the AP we are consciously shifted into the Astral plane and we are responsible for all actions. Ever experienced something called a hypnagogic jerk? Hypnagogic jerk happens in the process of falling asleep when suddenly all of you muscles relax and your brain actually thinks you are about to fall so it sends a signal to the muscles to constrict (to prevent any damage), then you suddenly wake up with the sensation that you had really fell down. Maybe you wondered is this all just the brains fault, well part of it yes but not all. When you are slowly going in the state of relaxation and your mind wonders away, you start performing an unconscious AP, leave your body and float just a bit above it. Suddenly something disrupts you and you return to your body, basically fall into it – And that’s what really causes the hypnagogic jerk.
    If you don’t want to lose half of your life just buy sleeping and don’t remembering your dreams, I will teach you to dream lucidly and to live your life in your dreams better than real one.




Lucid Dreams

    Lucid Dreams are, as mentioned before, dreams where you know that you are dreaming and every action and every thought is consciously controlled by yourself. You are probably starting to think right about now: “Am I fooling you?” or “That I’m just talking nonsense”. I will prove you that everything you read here is real and achievable. Some people have lucid dreams without even trying, but of course as I mentioned before, this articles are for less fortunate ones and all those who wish to learn more.
    How to start having lucid dreams? First of all you will need some things: Time clock, Journal and persistence. When you go to sleep set an alarm clock to wake you up 2 to 3 hours before you usual time. Get up, go to the bathroom, perform everything you do when you wake up and then go back to bed and fall asleep again. You will notice, well probably you noticed this before is that usually when you sometimes wake up earlier and go back to sleep you will almost always have a dream. So when you end up having a dream, it won’t be a lucid one, but have patience. Get up, take the Journal (from now on we will call it DJ or Dream Journal), write the current date and describe your dream with as much detail as possible. This is the first part of remembering all of your dreams. As time passes you will be able to remember more and more and you will have a dream almost every night (I mean remember it since we always dream during RAM faze of sleep). Now when you start recalling all of your dreams let’s learn how to take control over them. The best way of doing this besides sleep paralysis is called “Reality check”. By this I mean figuring out that you are dreaming and taking control over it. How can you do this? Well simple, before you go to sleep while lying in bed repeat these words – “I will get conscious in my dream”- several times. It may seem like this is a crazy idea, but believe me it isn’t. You will feel like that the sentence you’re saying is just ordinary and won’t have effect, but your sub-consciousness will absorb everything like a big sponge. Suddenly you will ask yourself in a dream: “Is this real?”- And I guarantee you that you will have lots of fun. You can create your own worlds, experience something that you always wanted, live another life, basically you will not want to wake up.

Until the next post, have good day.
