Induce Lucid Dreaming | This Tactic Did Not Work

2010-09-22T11:11:00.000-07:00

Last night I tried something new for lucid dreaming. I turned my alarm clock 7 hours in advance and then slept. Then I woke up and did some low activity activities on the computer and gave myself good affirmations as well as listened to binaural beats. Then, after an hour I went back to bed for an hour, while constantly repeating to my self that I was going to lucid dream next time I dreamed as well as laid a plan out for what I wanted to do and had an object in mind I wanted to find. I had a hard time falling asleep for some reason. As well as I dont even remember my dreams ):

This technique is supposed to get you to start dreaming in your REM cycle right away once you go to bed for the second time (the hour). It sadly did not work for me.

Anyways here is a lovely artest who speaks from his soul with his music

Incompetence and a Game (:

2010-09-19T14:57:00.000-07:00

I stumbled upon this wiki page and thought this was interesting

The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which an unskilled person makes poor decisions and reaches erroneous conclusions, but their incompetence denies them the metacognitive ability to realize their mistakes.[1] The unskilled therefore suffer from illusory superiority, rating their own ability as above average, much higher than it actually is, while the highly skilled underrate their abilities, suffering from illusory inferiority. This leads to the situation in which less competent people rate their own ability higher than more competent people. It also explains why actual competence may weaken self-confidence: because competent individuals falsely assume that others have an equivalent understanding. "Thus, the miscalibration of the incompetent stems from an error about the self, whereas the miscalibration of the highly competent stems from an error about others.

CONTROLS

Click and hold the left mouse button to paint snow. The skier will do tricks if you let go of the button while airborne.

OBJECTIVE

Draw snow under Solipskier to gain speed, do tricks and hit bonus gates. Avoid the jump chasms and red gates and tryto get the highest score you can! Share scores with your friends to see who's the best.

HELP

Try drawing long downslopes with short inclines on the end to gain speed and neccessary altitude (for higher gates).

If you pass through a green gate while airborne you'll get a multiplier and speed boost. The faster you go the more points you will rack up.

Induce Lucid Dreaming | Lesson 3 | Stay In Your Lucid Dream Longer

2010-09-18T18:42:00.000-07:00

If you have ever Lucid Dreamed you know that it can be overwhelmingly exiting. This excitement can lead pre mature waking (see what I did there). I read a report on things that will help you stay in your lucid dream. Ill make this short because I know I dont really read long blog posts

Participants were told to do one of three things:

Spin
Rub hands together
Go with he flow

The results came from 80 subjects. These stats seem to show that you should A) Spin or B) Rub your hands together, dont just try to go with the flow.

The study says,"Only 33% of the flow technique lucid dreams were prolonged, compared with 90% of the rubbing and 96% of the spinning lucid dreams"

So it seems the best thing to do to stay inside your precious lucid dream longer is spin around. Here is a cool account from one of the lucid dreamers who were being experimented on.

As everything around me turned to blackness--no visual content whatsoever--I started to spin round and say, "The next scene will be a dream" ... I was astonished to find a hole of brightness opening up... the bright hole literally appeared as a break in the black clouds around me, as if the sun were breaking through. I could see the branches of a tree through the hole. As I continued spinning (and it's strange that even though I was spinning round, my sight of the hole was unbroken), I seemed to pull myself towards and through the hole into the countryside of the next lucid dream scene..."

Pretty Cool eh?

Induce Lucid Dreaming | Lesson 2 | Reality Checks and Finding an object

2010-09-17T12:50:00.000-07:00

As you begin to be able to dream recall better through using your dream journal, you should begin to start other techniques that will let you begin to dream lucidly.

One thing that I have been trying recently, which led to my second lucid dream, was a Reality Check. It involves doing something as simple as asking,"Am I dreaming right now". If you do this enough throughout the day and it forms as a habit this will transfer over to your dreamworld. Once you do it in your dream you will snap into a lucid dream because you will understand that this (dream) reality (is different from the norm and it will stand out.

Another thing I just started trying is trying to find an object in your dream or lucid dream. Lets say you want to find a pair of red gloves in your dream. Every night before going (when your subconscious is most susceptible to thoughts) to bed think about that object and manifest it into your dreams. If you get good at this and begin finding your objects then the possibilities are endless. You will e able to conjure anything you want into your dream. I personally think this s a really cool technique that I have yet to master.

I am learning with you so I have yet to even come close to mastering these techniques. Hope yo enjoy, leave some feedback, or just advertise your blog (:

Dream Log | Entry 3

2010-09-16T09:54:00.000-07:00

I need to start going to bed earlier. And I'm sure you understand but these dreams are just what I remember of them, there is way more to them than this but this is all I can remember/express.

Dream 1: My cousin Billy falls out of a tree. I scream, fall to the ground and start crying. He starts to run around screaming because his leg is a ll mangled (I dont know how haha) I beckon him to come over and somehow make things better. For the rest of the dream he has a nub in the place of his leg.

That dream was intense

Dream 2: I think Billy begins to spread the word of this ebook I have been working on via wheelchair in this one. Damn... this dream is vague in my mind.

My goal is that when I dream I want to have things less blurry and vague , but more in vivid detail. I also want to be able to find any object that I think of before going to bed, my next lesson is on this.

Dream Log | Entry 2

2010-09-15T10:31:00.000-07:00

Well I have shown improvement since yesterday (: It seemed like I was awaking on the time when I was dreaming most, the REM cycle . My dreams are just snippets I wrote down as I awoke from my dream onto a post-it note, note that these are not my entire dreams just what I remember.

Am I allowed to feature Salvador Dali's work if I announce that I am not the author? Hopefully...

Dream 1: I'm am a spy in an elevator, with a woman friend (also working espionage with me), we are going to spy on someone. We talk about how we are going to execute the plan. As we walk out of the elevator another man walks out. There was no man when we were in there, or at least I thought. We got spied on!!! I got owned by that dude haha.

Haha when I awake from my dreams it is very difficult to write and I cant ever read half of the stuff that I jot down.

Dream 2: I am in a pizza joint called China Palbca (no idea what this word means), going to see a the same show I have seen in another dream, or at least it feels familiar. I helped set up tables for this kids birthday ( it was my brothers birthday yesterday) and as we prayed I looked down at myself and kind of felt my soul...

These dreams are all broken up because of my alarm clock waking me up, which is nice because I usually dont remember more than one.

Dream 3: Now I actually enter this "show" from the last dream and there is a crowd of people. There is a dj set up with some nifty speakers and he is booming some kickin' beats. Behind him, I guess for a spectacle for people to listen, he has a dog in this tower in a glass cage. And the cage starts to spin really rapidly for a bit. I felt bad for the dog. But... It was very entertaining. Then at the end of his gig he showed that he was advertising for a company I do not remember . (This is interesting because I watched Cherry Chocolate Rain yesterday and that song is an advertisement, may not make sense to you but in my mind this is why I had this dream) then they brought out this huge screen TV and we began to play Super Smash Bros Mele (I played this literally thousands of hours when I was younger with childhood friends) they were there playing with me. Then they left and I started to talk to Sarah and I think she asked me,"are we doing this"? We were about to enbark in some sort of intercourse but then everybody came back and it was slightly awkward as you could imagine.

I know this may not be that interesting reading my dream log but actually doing this is awesome because it shows you why you had these dreams, lets you actually remember what you are dreaming about, gives you something to look back on in the years to come, and all builds towards the goal to induce lucid dreaming.

Induce Lucid Dreaming | Lesson 1 | Remember Your Dreams

2010-09-14T09:53:00.000-07:00

Remember Your Dreams

Before you can begin to lucid dream, you (and I) must master the art of remembering our dreams. It will let you begin to recognize how your dreams are structured and give you the ability to remember a lucid dream if you have one.

A full nights sleep is key. In Dream Log | Entry 1 I could not seem to grasp my dream from the past night, which I believe is because I am going to bed to late. Reasons to get more sleep include:

easier to focus on goal of remembering your dreams
dream cycles will be longer by the end of the night

Dreams must be written down right as you come out of your sleep cycle. I keep a pen and sticky notes by my side, so I can write in the hurry. Then I take whatever I wrote and I will post it here in the morning. Wirte down the most important parts of your dream, things that will jog your memory in the morning.

Be positive and tell yourself that you are going to remember your dream. Tell yourself you wish to awake completely and remember your previous dream. As you awake ask yourself, "What did I just dream about"? Stay in the same position you awoke in and dont cloud your mind with thoughts about the day. FOCUS on your dream, go over it, and jot it down.

Continue to do this everyday ( I will be writing a Dream Log a day on my blog) and it should become easier. Doing this will allow you to recognize your dreams better and make it easier to spot our own dreams and induce lucid dreams. I wish you the best if you are trying to start lucid dreaming every night as I am. I encourage you to comment about your dream under this post, if you remember any drams from last night.

I used lucidity for info (:

Well this sucks... I cannot recall my dream, or at least anything I can explain. My dream seems distant, not so lucid, which is obviously ironic since I am trying to lucid dream, and blog about it. Well I will do my continue to do my best. I think getting enough rest has something to do with it. Lately I have been going to bed around 2 am, but now I am trying to get on an earlier schedule, so we will see what the future holds. Which leads me to my lesson: Remembering Your Dreams

As you have probably noticed I changed the niche of my blog. This is why: Recently I have gotten into lucid dreaming.

I think it is vastly unexplored region of our own existence that we have yet to conquer. Imagine everything you cannot do in this reality... but being able to do once you go to sleep. For all you who do not know what lucid dreaming is. It is when, in your dream, you become aware of the fact that you are dreaming. I am new so I am beginning my journey.
This is what you should expect from this blog in the future:

A daily post of my dream (so as I can keep a dream log) and I will encourage you to post your dreams that you remember from last night in the comment section
A lesson a day on how to induce lucid dreaming
Videos on binaural beats that I have found that I think will help you dreaming lucidly
More to come just keep checking me out, and I show you that respect as well

Google Instant- You Have Done It Again Google

2010-09-11T19:45:00.000-07:00

Everybody who uses the interweb knows what google is.

Google does everything now a days from email to themes to a fun game on their homepage, I really don't think google is going to stop at anything to take the world over. (yes they are attempting world domination) I mean they pretty much already have taken over the entire interweb, why not go global? But anyways Google released Google Instant, a feature that tries to figure out what you are going to type before you type it. They figure that an average person can read faster than they can type, so Google dynamically displays search links as you type. Awesome, less time spent typing, more time spent looking at po... no just kidding, porn and cursing are the only searches where they draw the line and will not auto show. I do acknowledge that I am usually late on posting things that are new.... (:

Reality Check!!!

2010-09-09T00:21:00.000-07:00

Look at your hands... is this real? I have only lucid dreamed once in my life (lucid dreaming is when you are dreaming and the you become aware of your dream), and like most people I tried to fly... and sorta succeeded. I would gain height and then dip back down, but none the less it was spectacular. I want to lucid dream every night. Dreams are fascinating, when you dream your brain says that the dream is reality. And you can do anything you want in your dream Anything! If only I can control my dreams I can control my reality.

Itunes New Visualizer

2010-09-06T13:49:00.000-07:00

When it comes to visualizer's I have got to give it to magnetosphere. Developed by Robert Hodgin, this

awe inspiring visualizer is quite the looker. So when I happened upon this video (link above) I was like I have to have this. So I searched for some time and could not get the freaking download link. So then I finally read that Itunes had bought the visualizer and it was bundled in their newest update. That was the best news I had heard all day, so I loaded Itunes up and shit was this visualizer amazing. It has orbs of light getting encompassed with particles and everything is bouncing beautifully to the music. You can change the "theme" of the visualizer so that it will not get boring ( not that it would) which is cool. I listened to some Shpongle and STS9... wow it was the best. So go, update itunes if you have not already,put on your favorite jam, turn the visualizer on, preferably with a joint (: And sit back and relax.

   Howdy you have stumbled upon my page I see. I am going to try to help you induce lucid dreaming. I will be posting regularly about lucid dreams and how to go about getting them. I think lucid dreams are the untapped potential to bring on a world that is usually uncontrolled 8 hours a day. What if you lived in reality, and then went to sleep to induce another reality where NOTHING was impossible. That is why lucid dreaming intrigues me.
   I recently got back into lucid dreams again, and until about three days ago couldn't even remember my dreams (since I moved out to LA) I started doing some research, implementing certain tactics, and listening to certain songs. And then it happened, I induced a lucid dream for the second time in my life. It was magical, seriously mind blowing (more about it later.
   If you want to know how to lucid dream I will be posting regularly tips tricks and my own accounts on how to go about getting into that other reality.
