5 Steps to Your First Lucid Dream
|
It is a way to trick your body to think that your mind is sleeping. When this happens you enter the dream world but you still preserve your consciousness. Thus you can do whatever you want to do.
Its really good method for experiencing your first lucid dream because it works instantly. Just go to bed, follow the steps and in 20-30 minutes you will find yourself in a lucid dream.
|

1 ) Lay down and Relax
Release the muscle tension. One body part at a time. Start with the head and finish with the toes.
Feel the tension fading away, start breathing slowly and deep. Relax even more.

2 ) Do NOT MOVE your body.
Every time you move the time counter for getting lucid is reset and you start again from the begging.
You will probably get URGES to move, thats a sign that you are on the right track.
Ignore the urges long enough and the body will start thinking that the mind is asleep, thus it will enter the state of sleep paralysis. (thats what you are looking for)

3 ) Maintain Consciousness.
Know that you will enter a dream and just reaffirm that you are dreaming. If you fail to maintain consciousness you will probably end up having a normal dream.
One… I am dreaming
Two… I am dreaming
Three… I am dreaming

4 ) Observe the Weird Sensations ( hypogogic imagery)
After a while you will start seeing flashes of images, your body will start to feel really light or numb, you might hear voices and sounds, moving colors on your eyelids or other weird things.
This is totally natural, it happens every time when you are between sleep and wakefulness, you just can’t remember it. The key here is to stay CALM, just passively observe what is happening. Do this until the flashes of images become really strong and vivid.

5 ) Enter the dream
All you have to do now is explore the vivid images with your imagination. Use all your senses. You can enter some of those images and continue forming your story from there. Its best to imagine yourself MOVING ( running, flying, walking, swimming) and then explore all the sensations, feel the wind on your skin, the pressure from the gravity on your legs, the movement, hear the sounds from the street.
Sooner or later those sensations will become highly vivid and real -> You have entered : WILD – Wake Induced Lucid Dream.

The hypnagogic is experienced when you are in between dream and wakefulness, when you are out of your body, the dream has began and the sensations should stop but you are probably thinking to much about the them and thats why they continue in your dreams(and wake you up).
Solution:
1)Try to visualize something else and not think about the weird sensations.
2) Get some experience. The process will get smooth after you have tried enough times.

I get stuck with WILD.
At first I get these really violent electric currents running through my body. They are really annoying but I ignore them and after a while I usually feel like I’m floating above my bed (sometimes I feel hands manipulating my position of arms and legs). The hypnagoga is there to and gets increasingly complex. Up to a point. I can’t go further into the actual dream.
Any tips on what I might be doing wrong?

Normally about 10-15 minutes. But sometimes it can take up to 30 minutes.
Its best/fastest when you do it in the morning 1 hour after waking up after 6 hours sleep.
