How to control your dreams-Lucid dreaming ;Share your experiences!!

Hello Flood. Since this is rather old and split up due to the new posting structure- i have made a lovely pastebin for the guide which has updated sections and small changes to make it more pleasant to read. [url=http://pastebin.com/J0kkWq4v]Enjoy everyone[/url] [b]edit[/b]Sorry for the mass of grammar mistakes that occur below, I have yet to had a time to re-type this guide in a grammar friendly way. For the record this guide was made in February of 2011[b]edit[/b] Before you post hateful comments saying it isn't possible it is. [b]IT IS POSSIBLE TO CONTROL YOUR DREAMS [/b] This is a phenomenon called lucid dreaming and I have recently in the past week or so discovered this and had multiple experiences. A lucid dream is where you realise in your dream that you are dreaming and this can lead to you being able to do anything, your wildest fantasies including ,ahem ahem, If you wish to experience one or multiple of these dreams you will need dedication and want to perform a dream, I will list in short form beneath what is needed to be done to achieve LUCIDITY 1. HOW YOU SEE THE WORLD The first step is psychological and very important. You need to believe you can perform these dreams and you need to believe that the world around you could be a dream or not. You need to start to think of yourself as having a real body and a dream body that is a reflection of you (I imagine a coin on one side is the world as it is and the other my dreamscape) 2. DREAM RECALL You will need to improve your dream recall as if you have a dream that's lucid but forget it whets the point. To do this you will need to create a dream diary or log, this will be somewhere for you to record your dreams near your bed [u]immediately[/u] after waking. To successfully create this diary you will need to when you wake have the first thought you have to be 'what did I dream' this will lead you into the phase or mind where you remember what you did, you will remember backwards. Once you have successfully remembered key points jot them in your diary before you forget. Looking back upon your diary at a later stage will enable you to remember dreams and bring them back which in turn allows you to remember dreams better. . Example (exert from my diary)- I was running, there was a red wall, as I went to climb it the COD icon for climbing appeared, I am in a dream I thought, the world span around, (I now wake up) 3. REALITY CHECKS This is the largest step towards receiving your fist lucid dream. Every hour you will need to perform two of these or alternatively whenever things seem odd, (or even better do both), until you get into a habit of doing these, this is important as these cause you to realise you are dreaming and cause your conscience to kick in while your body is sleeping. CHECK 1- Try and push your fingers through your hand in a dream they should go strait through CHECK 2- if you wear a watch look at it turn away for a few seconds then look again as in a dream the time will of completely changed or gone fuzzy. CHECK 3-hold your nose and close your mouth then try to breathe, in a dream you can even if u block off airways (I should know this caused my first lucid dream) CHECK 4- if you have text infront of you looks at it then look back much like the watch or is the letters fuzzy or unreadable in a dream they often are. 4. WAKE UP GO BACK TO BED This is a technique I used to get my memory better for recalling. When you sleep you go into cycles of different strengths. Every 90mins you enter one where you are in REM (rapid eye movement) this is the stage where you have lucid dreams. Set an alarm, not radio, to wake you up 4 1/2 hours after you sleep this will be your strongest REM cycle. Remember your dream and fill your diary. Wait an hour (read or do anything before returning to sleep) when falling asleep picture in your head your last dream and you might feel like you are getting closer to it, you may of now entered a lucid dream. 5. PLANT IT INTO YOUR MIND It has been proven the more you think about wanting lucid dreams the more your subconscious (the part of your brain where you dream) will realise it should create them. This will help you get a lucid dream as if you want one you can get one. [u]warning if you want it too much you may have a negative effect, play it cool[/u] 6. REPETITION Before you fall asleep think to yourself, I will remember my dreams, or I will have a lucid dream (once you can remember them. think these when you are dozing off, just repeat them until you physically fall asleep. (Note. if u are experienced at how to get lucid dreams you can choose what its like by saying, I will dream about-what you want-) [b]ONCE YOU HAVE A LUCID DREAM [/b] Once you realise you are dreaming then be careful not to get too excited as this will cause you to wake up. In a lucid dream play it cool you can cheer after you record it in your diary upon waking. If you feel the dream fading then spin around as fast as possible on the spot and shout, I want more clarity, this triggers your subconscious into reiterating your dream, repeat this when you might wake [u]you are the limit[/u] you can do many things in your dream, perform magic, seduce your love or play halo without armour lock ;) you just got to believe you can do it, the moment you doubt you can do it is the moment your cant and this often leads to awaking [u]this is the way I got to lucid dream I hope it works for you if you want more detail please research more although I have placed the best techniques I have found[/u] WHEN YOU DO GET A LUCID DREAM DONT BE DISGRUNTLED WHEN YOU WAKE UP, YOU HAVE TO EVENTUALLY, LONGER DREAMS COME WITH TIME AND PRACTICE REMEMBER THERES ALWAYS NEXT NIGHT. [b]NOTES[/b] 1. It takes various lengths of time to get into a few dreams it took me a couple of weeks it can take months, don't give up keep trying LICUD DREAMS ARE WORTH IT 2.If you wake up you might not be able to move muscles for a bit, this is sleep paralysis, where you body stops you moving your real body by locking itself like a safe, wait or fall back to sleep and you will come to normal. 3. Believe in yourself, the only barrier is YOU 4. There is no harm from lucid dreams, but if you are having a stressed life you will have less lucid dreams, 5. If you're worried about a presentation or something, practice I in your dreamscape. 6. DO NOT MOVE WHEN YOU AWAKE, AS YOU WILL STIMULATE THE BRAIN CAUSING YOU TO FORGET TOUR DREAM. 7.follow these steps and you should in time enjoy a wonderful world. 8. Dieing in lucid dreams don't kill u in real life, its not real just a world created by your conscious to sort out random bits of information Please record your thoughts or amazing dreams you've had This is truly amazing and should be shared among everyone P.s tell people you know about your dreams this will hit home telling your brain you are determined to have these lucid dreams p.p.s sleep paralysis is a very rare and uncommon thing if it happens just swallow as this will cause your brain to restart its motor neurones and this will unlock your muscles p.p.p.s-yes inception did make a movie on this but I have been lucid since way before so have millions of people, I decided it would be nice to help others have these awesome dreams TLDR: follow the bullet points if you want to be aware you are dreaming and to fulfil your fantasies. Don't give up. And when you do get lucid dreams continue these techniques for more.
