Incubating dreams, and Lucid Dreams

**lschievenin** · 09-05-2010 11:12 PM

This week i started a research about creativity in Dreams, or Lucid Dreams.
I readed in ETWOLD, that Incubation is one of the ways to having a creative dream.

But i never managed to do it.
at least, not consciously.

I need to know how i do it!
It cant be just THINKING about it!

How i do it?
And how i include a trigger to becoming lucid in this incubation?
(like incubating, that when i see my self in a art gallery, i will become lucid)

Your dream content is often influenced by your acitvity and experinces in the hour or so immeditaely before you go to sleep. You might have noticed if you fall asleep halfway through a film or tv show late at night, the characters or scenes from that show turn up in your dreams. You can use this effect to influence the content of your dreams.

This effect can be amplified by using an autosuggestion phrase as you are going to sleep. E.g. If you spend the hour before you go to sleep watching or reading something involving lots of pirates, and then repeat the phrase 'I will have a dream where I am pirate' over and over as you fall asleep , theres a good chance you will have a dream where you're a pirate!

You can also add even further to the chances by waking up during the night, and using an approach similar to the MILD technique, but instead of visualizing the dream you just left and imaginig yourself becoming lucid, Visaulize the dreamscene you want to go into.

Hope that helps!

hmmm
i will try it tonight.
both things,
this morning i wrote down the beggining of a history wich i will become lucid, in a room, with very detailed things and it all.

Will use this, and the autosuggestion, when going to sleep, and with WBTB
