So you want to learn how to lucid dream. Well you've made the right choice by coming here. I would first like to say that lucid dreaming is not something easily learned by most people. For many, it takes weeks, months, sometimes years to have just one lucid dream. To be able to have LDs on a regular basis, or on command, takes years of practice, patience, and knowledge. Some people are naturals, others will have to work very hard. I will go over a brief introduction on how to go about inducing a lucid dream.

The first step in the path to lucid dreaming is to increase your dream recall. Some people may say they never dream, but what they really mean is that they never remember their dreams. Every night a person has an avera

What are some reality checks that actually work? Flipping light switches doesn't work for me, I don't think I've ever actually seen a light switch in a dream. It could have something to do with the fact that I like the dark and rarely have the lights on in my house

Two of the handful of times I've become lucid has involved a bathroom mirror. I don't see anything "fucked up" though, just some weird fun-house distortion that makes me look twice at it.

My main problem is that after becoming lucid, I tend to try to focus on details that aren't there, like texture, fine details, relative object placement, and dream coherence in general. It's like I try to make the entire dream more real, and end up waking up as a result.

I've tried tons of methods for RC's. The one that never fails for me is looking at my hands.

I also do this multiple times a day during my waking life. I look at each side of each hand, tracing the outline.. Not sure why, but this one, for me, has been the best method.

Best music to listen to while trying to lucid dream?

ok /ld/, FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY ENTIRE LIFE I got a lucid dream... it was something spontaneous (no preparation or techniques at all) and I did the hands check to see if I was dreaming, and I was. But I started to fly and other shit -really fun I have to say- but that dream started to "dissapear" after maybe mmmm 10 min and I woke up. How can I extend my lucid dreams?

>thanks

try spinning your dream-body. don't ask me why but many people agree that it prolongs dream-time and increases lucidity.

Wow! That's great! I'm still trying. :\

do that and ask for lucidity out loud

I first got interested in lucid dreaming many years ago, but I was impatient and gave up pretty quickly. Then, when Inception came out in theaters, it got me interested again and I learned a few methods of manually inducing a lucid dream. I did the nose pinching method, where you check to see if you're dreaming by pinching your nose and trying to breathe in. I was able to induce three lucid dreams, but none of them lasted very long, or I quickly slipped back into a regular dream.

I've been doing reality checks every day for a while now and I can't seem to have another lucid dream. I know it's not easy, but is there any ways I could help my chances of having one? I really want to experience it again.

I guess I spoke prematurely. I had the shortest lucid dream I've ever had last night. This one was short because I finally managed to take control and try flying. I must be a pretty shitty lucid dreamer because I flew up about 20 feet and then fell down on my face. After that, I don't remember anything.

  I will try to make this short. I am going to be posting a few pages from my notebooks, all hand drawn (unless otherwise noted). I have a psychological disorder marked by self-imposed social alienation and an increased, almost hyperactive thougt process. That being said, I see it as natural, and I simply like seclusion. I am sixteen, but I started experimenting when I was about twelve. I had heard of lucid dreaming (mostly after studying eastern philosophy) and was interested. Most people were using some form or another of drugs to achieve the intense visions. The way I figured, the drugs built up a dependency, and would form a bad habit. What affects huma physiology and is also indefatiguable?

Not necessarily a disease, just a wrong way of thinking. And I've been posting from a nook, which was screwed up and couldnt view the thread (it said it didnt exist.) Now that someone finally emailed me, I can upload the files! What do you think the email was listed for?

This is just the first page, designs for an active electrode circuit for the EEG. It is a type of high-Z operational amplifier filter called a "Butterworth filter." I've listed the part numbers, circuit diagrams and even pictures of how to wire the circuit. You can also look up the datasheet of the integrated circuit,

This is a little off-topic, but I wasn't sure of where else to post it.

Okay, most of my friends say they dream in black and white, with the exception of my friend Tanner. Thing is, I've never dreamt in black and white except for once. Other than that, ever since I can remember, every dream I can remember are in color.

Is it rare to dream in color, or is it common?

I can see why you would say that, in almost all cases I would agree.
Although what bugs me is the convenient coincidence that most of OP's friends happen to watch things in black & white during their childhood.

12% of people dream only in black and white, the rest dreams fully coloured.

Alright, this is a long one. I wrote this about a month ago, about five or six days from my cousin's baby shower. Since I wrote this RIGHT after having the dream, a lot of details are still there. I originally wrote it for my friend, but I fixed it up so it could be posted here.

Okay, so me and my best friend Tanner went to my cousin's baby shower together for some reason. It was being held in Cleveland State Community College. I remember my family coming with me, but don't remember them for the rest of the dream. We had to look for hallways called "Yoksu and Yitska" or something along the lines of those words. I remember there was a greenish tint around the doors and they seemed out of place in

Yeah, I'm not sure why that was there either. I don't have any deep-seeded hatred for Macs or MacFags, so I'm not sure why it was in the dream.

I've been trying unsuccessfully to lucid dream for a few months now. However, I know in my heart I have not dedicated myself fully to the goal of lucid dreaming. So I have a question; after many years of practice and becoming a lucid dream pro, are you able to fully control every part of your dreams, have dreams at will, and remember them all clearly? Or are even the best lucid dreamers only able to assert minimal control over the dreams?

It is very important to me that I would be able to have lucid dreams at will. I don't want to dedicate my life to lucid dreaming in the hope of one day living almost entirely inside my own reality if that goal is unreachable.

I have a question, Im to lazy to create a new thread..
Yesterday i woke up around 3A.M.
I woke up because I suddenly realised I had a lucid dream, when I realise that I began to fell trough black holes, like waking up in another realm and stay there for 1second, then black, then another realm, and so on.
When I woke up I , it felt like someone was jumping in my bed, and i heard this loud pitchy voice, screaming.
but it didn't scare me, because i felt euphoric.
Was this a sleep paralysiz?
I did cleanse my room with white sage, so make sure it wasnt a spirit.
>> No. 421

congrats man your getting closer to lucid dreaming, but yea you more than likely got sleep paralysis I get them quite often and if you go to sp and open your eyes you'll start to see stuff. Not sure if you know this but when your sleeping and feel like your gonna get sp just let it happen and fall asleep with it and you should be able to lucid sleep instantly, happens to me time to time.

I've been aware of lucid dreaming since middle school, when I began experimenting with my dreams. I had a lot more control over it then, than I do now. I was probably 13 or 14 when my friend started studying dreams, because we both talked to each other a lot about our dreams, she began looking into dream interpretation, and thus, found out about lucid dreaming and out of body experiences.
The reason that I'm posting, is to ask a question concerning lucid dreams.
My interest in them waned for a while, and I stopped reading about dreams, and stopped really paying attention to anything deeper than a kiddie pool. I assume it's because I was going through being an angsty gothic high schooler, I digress...

Seeing as though you have a hard time rembering your casual dreams I suggest keeping a dream journal to record dreams even if they're nightmares. Also tell yourself lots of times before bed "I will have a lucid dream". It will most likely not work for lucidity but it'll help you remember the dreams better. After about a week try any technique in the sticky and you should be able to cilontrol nightmares. It takes longer to develop than a week, but since you've done it before it should be "brain memory" kinda like muscle memory.
>> No. 393
having nightmares can actually be a good starter for having lucid dreams, at least it worked for me several times. when I was in a truly horrible situation I realized: "wait. this is absurd. guess I must be dreaming", and as soon as you're lucid it's only a matter of willpower to alter the nightmare into something more... pleasant.
>> No. 416
Face the thing of your nightmare, slaughter everything you see, let the rage flow.

I love to have nightmares, feels so good to just kill them.
