Lucid dreaming

[Vod]

When you can control your dreams, you are less stressed and better able to solve problems.

Lucid dreaming allows you to do this!  I did it as a child in grades 4-6. then I lost it at puberty.   

Now I am using the remee mask, but I don't like "timer" feature - I'd rather have a mask that detects my REM before starting.

Anyone else into lucid dreaming?

[joniboini]

I tried doing this for years and it never worked for me. Tried so many methods and I can't seem to control any dream at all. That being said, I'm aware that I'm dreaming most of the time after doing those exercises, so I guess it does affect me. I believe listening to binaural beats is good even if you don't plan to lucid dream. Have you tried that or do you prefer other methods?

i have always been interested in this it is kind of like daydreaming except you actually feel it, no? you live the experience in real time kind of like those virtual reality games where you put in goggles and see virtual reality and you can choose the setting and etc

seems fun but i have never been able to do it how can you do it?

Also, I am interested in what is lucid dreaming because I haven't experienced where you can control your dreams and also what is the use of that remee mask and how does it helps in lucid dreaming I have so many questions.

Well, I had my time with lucid dreams and astral projection stuff, I never got it to work but anyhow even if I were able to.. my mind is filled with negative stuff poured down since childhood that I'd probably create nightmares than anything good and I always feared whether I'll be able to keep control of dream and not let intrusive thoughts intrude and create a bad dream.

Although I've not really tried none of these, lucid dreaming or astral projection, but I've actually read a few stuffs about it. Yes, having a mind filled with negativity can actually obstruct your inner energy, making it pretty difficult or even impossible to grasp. Rather than assuming control of your dreams, the only thing that'll show up would be those dark stuffs from your childhood and that's understandable. If you're still interested in giving it a try, you could first try out a few activities to flush away those negative energies through meditations and stuffs like that, and replace them with positive ones. Perhaps you'll get better results.

Lucid dreams are my worst moments in this life. I have being having it since I can ever remember a thing when I was growing up. Till date, it does happen to me and I don’t like it at all because I can’t seem to control it and don’t like how I feel when it comes around, those are my worst nightmares. Having those dreams scare me off not to even sleep again even when I’m feeling sleepy because when I go back to bed it continues. Those times i feel are not the right time for me to sleep. How annoying it is, and I don’t know how to control or stop it so I still live by it whenever it comes.

i hear that it does require some effort to fully control your dreams it seems really scary and dangerous if you are not very experienced yet because some people have physical real life reactions from dreams it seems attractive if you only count the happy dreams but once we are unable to control the dream it might become quite terrifying and traumatic

Going lucid can be interesting but scary too, this depends on who. The mindset behind dreams and dreaming is also a big factor that determines if lucid dreams will happen. Being intentional and interestingly open minded to have lucid dreams can do wonders. This doesn't undermine other approaches.
Taking charge of that fear in the dream makes sense and helps too. Sometimes you won't even know that the discussion you are referring to was made in the dream because it was so comprehensive that you didn't even wake up, continued in it and arise from sleep freely without taking note that you had a dream

I don't think you are describing a lucid dream.  In a lucid dream, you know you are dreaming.   Could you be suffering from Sleep Paralysis?

I don't think you are describing a lucid dream.  In a lucid dream, you know you are dreaming.   

I managed this sometimes, not complete control, but I quite managed to direct the dream in a direction that was more pleasant for me. As far as I know, it depends a lot on daily habits, events that happened during the day or possibly if I expect something big the next day when I wake up.
Now I'm not even sure if this control made anything easier for me.

Can you explain if this works at all?

Once you turn it on, the Remee mask waits a couple hours then starts flashing LED lights on a cycle.   The idea is if you are dreaming, you will eventually recognize these flashing lights, giving you god like powers in your dream.   

A better mask (which I cannot find) would detect the rapid eye movement signifying you are dreaming before activating the LED lights.  There was one on kickstarter once, but I don't think there was enough demand.   Education and marketing could really help; Lucid dreaming is incredibly therapeutic and stress relieving.

You can recreate any environment you wish; visit anywhere in the world or even out of this world; make love to your favourite movie star; practice a recital you have tomorrow; or just simply, fly. It's an exhilarating feeling which leaves you with the most profound sense of freedom.

I can vouch for that. Because I'll always do to get laid when I can't so yeah it's stress relieving for sure.

Lucid dreaming occurs to 20% of the people naturally but it's only possible on its own or until now cause this is I am realising it can be induced in someway. Can we find a shark to invest on this idea and turn them into multi million dollar business.

Totally really depends on a certain individual yet we do have our own approach on how we would gonna deal up with things on which it would really be that entirely be basing up
whether we would really be going with the flow or would really be trying out to oppose it. As for negative ones then it would really be just that right that you should really be
avoiding it as much as you could and replacing them into something positive on which we know that this would really be that something helpful.

Hm, Sounds like the next gadget on my list 

Based on your experience, how effective it is?
