Exploring The World Of Lucid Dreaming

Have you ever wondered, 'Is this a dream?' as you move throughout your day? Even if this isn’t something you do regularly, to get proficient at lucid dreaming, this is a skill that can help you out. Start habitually asking yourself whether or not you’re in a dream as you move through your waking day. Just like you’re perceptions, the habits you form during your waking hours are the same as those that affect you in your dream worlds. According to research, asking yourself, "Am I dreaming?" at least five to ten times during the day helps you to develop a critical-reflective attitude, which conditions you to start being able to lucid dream. Once you start asking yourself this enough, it will work its way into your dreams as well, encouraging you to ask the same question – “Am I dreaming?” – while you’re actually dreaming. But what happens if a dream seems too real? What if, when you ask whether you’re dreaming, the people in your dream argue with you and push back against your question, prompting you to mistakenly conclude that you are awake. In this case, it’s imperative to use critical state testing– testing your reality. You can ask yourself other questions while asleep: “Do I have super powers?” Another good test is to see whether or not the content of a book is the same, the first and second time you open it. Exercising a critical-reflexive attitude can really help you to start dreaming lucidly. But how can you actually become lucid? Just before you drift off, remind yourself that you intend to remember to recognize that you are dreaming. This is known as the mnemonic induction of lucid dreams (MILD). The goal of MILD is to create a way of thinking during your waking state that will travel with you into your dream state. It’s important, though, to be patient. There’s no way to guarantee that you’ll automatically be able to lucid dream — some people require more practice. There are also multiple ways to actually induce lucid dreams, which is what we’ll explore next.

The Conscious Electromagnetic Information (CEMI) Field Theory

Consider driving along a familiar road. You may be listening to the radio, thinking about some problem at work, but your brain is busy performing all the complex computations necessary to control your limb movements and maintain your car on the busy road, unconsciously. You spot a hazard sign 'Roadworks Major Congestion Ahead' and immediately your conscious mind takes control, to slow the car and perhaps try to find an alternative route home. What is it that is taking control in these situations? What we need to look for is something that is a product of the brains activity, that integrates information but which also has the power to influence that activity. Surprisingly, we have known for years that such an entity exists within our brain. The neurons in our brain transmit electrical signals along and between nerve fibers. It is always assumed that the electrons and neurotransmitters moving down these nerves are the movers and shakers of neuronal computation. However, all elect

Dreaming Is A DMT Experience

Image
Dimethyltryptamine, or DMT , is a potent psychedelic drug commonly found in nature. DMT is also produced by our brains and contribute to a wide variety of experiences. Scientists have also been intrigued by the possibility that DMT would be involved in, for example, the generation of psychedelic experiences or dreamlike states. This video will briefly examine the physiological function of endogenous DMT from a pharmacological perspective. You can get a chemical version of course, and the resulting trip or hallucination is very profound and many would say life changing. But there's a problem with reading loads of peoples stories about DMT and I think by reading and hearing about peoples stories, you're actually changing what might have happened to you if you'd never heard the stories. The same can be said of lucid dreaming, if you constantly hear things like 'when you lucid dream, you'll be met by the terrifying sleep paralysis demon' then you start to believe it

You Are The Universe

The universe is a reflection of consciousness. Everything in your life, your reality and your experiences is like an audition for your attention just as celestial bodies orbit around the sun. Your thoughts, feelings, perceptions and sensations depend entirely on the energy you invest. That which you ignore ceases to exist in your experiential realm. The challenge arises from the unconsciousness with which we often navigate this process. Anything that transpires in your life need not become your experience if you choose not to lend it your attention. This may sound counterintuitive but it's a fact worth considering. When you refuse to invest your attention, events and circumstances lose their impact on your vibrational frequency. In the realm of the Law of Attraction, thoughts are often touted as creators of reality. However, thoughts in and of themselves are empty vessels, they simply vie for your attention. You hold the power to energize them by saying "yes" or dismiss t
