Thread: After 2 weeks I had a LD. DILD with Binaural Beats works! Please read further though!

Okay so after many trial and error I finally had my first official lucid dream! Im so stoked. I used DILD and Binaural beats. But I think 2 things happened at the same time. Pleas let me explain:

So I fell asleep listening to a Astral Projection and Lucid Dream Binaural beat. And I did so listening to the same specific beat I had been trying for the past few nights. Anyways back to my dream: So I was crawling into my room. I made it halfway in and I got stuck. Then I could not move. I looked up and stared at my computer. It was at this moment I relized I was dreaming. Then, I started hearing and feeling strong vibration noises. They took over my whole body. But somehow I still remained calm. The computer was off but tons of images flashed through the computer. It was almost like history was flashing through it. Then it stopped. I Still kept feeling the strong vibrations. I began to levitate but I was so happy it threw me off. I woke up (but not in real life) to my brother kicking me because I ws halfway out of my room. But I still knew I was dreaming. It took great effort to finally really truley wake up in real life.

Now, I am officially a true believer of binaural beats. However, the beats I listened to were mainly for Astral Projection and minorly for Lucid Dreaming. This was the 3rd time I felt the vibrations and my spirit body almost leave my physical body. Did I possibly almost astral project after becoming lucid? Or did I have just 1 big crazy Lucid Dream?

From what I've heard, the sensations for astral projection and lucid dreaming are extremely similar, so its going to be difficult to definitively tell. I'd imagine it was a big lucid, though because astral projection would tend to involve being intangible and yet your brother was able to kick you.

Congratulations!

Thanks guys. Well that was after I had a false awakening (right definition?) but you are right. Its just weird having SP inside of a dream like that its never happened. I love those binaural beats tho they kick ass haha

Awesome, congrats on your lucid dream! I have been experimenting with binaurals, but have yet to have any success with them. I'm currently using a program, Atmosphere Deluxe, to make my own nature sounds and add in Theta Binaurals to promote REM sleep. Anyway, no luck with them yet--glad to see they do work!

I too have experimented with Astral projection to no avail. If you are interested, might I suggest the meditations by Paul Santisi? He has some awesome free astral projection meditations that really get you super, super relaxed. I think with enough time they very well could lead to a succesfull astral projection. He uses a mix of subliminal messaging and binaurals added into his meditation MP3. He guides you deep into relaxation, and up to the point where you try to leave your body--the rest he leaves up to you, whispering subliminal affirmations. He has a reallllly good voice for meditating too. If nothing else, it is great relaxation practice!

Ive been looking into his techniques I have been really eager to try. I might try soon. as to your binaural beats, I personally do not listen to any beats with nature sounds in them. Like birds or water or the wind. They throw me off and leave me unable to sleep and they keep me awake. I only use the beats with that 3.9 or 6hz tone (or whatever the hell it is) or in other words, nature free lol. That is coming from my personal experience though I cant say for sure the true outcome.

Oh that's so awesome! I actually just found out about binaural beats a week or so ago, and was a bit skeptical. The first one I tried was supposed to simulate a trip, so I started playing it (it didn't have any background music either, just the beats). After about ten minutes I started feeling really weird, it felt like my legs suddenly got impossibly long and melted into the bed, and then it felt almost like all my bodily sensations vanished and I was just made of air and my hands, which were on my chest, sunk right through me. It definitely freaked me out but I kept at it, and started hearing laughter and seeing colorful lightening and weird shadow faces. It definitely dissolved my skepticism!

Can I ask which ones you're using? I have a few from I-Doser, including Astral Projection and Lucid Dream, which I haven't tried yet, as well as the ones that came with my SBaGen download. Also, how loud did you have the beats playing? Judging from the first one I listened to, I don't think I can fall asleep to one of these, but I might've just had it too loud.

Yeah you got to keep it at a comfortable volume. I actually use youtube. I have a playlist on my channel with 30+ beats on it. I can give you a link to some of the ones that worked best for me if you'd like?

Please do post some links. I've also tried binaurals, but not had much success, but then maybe you have some better ones that actually work.....

Go to youtube and enter this after the URL. /watch?v=SXAA9Jtobsk&list=PLSxgH-iCcjc1eA7H-oTczM6GwSpyd4GCW (sorry i need 1 more day to post links)

This link should direct you to my playlist of all the Astral Projection/Lucid Dream binaural beats I use. Now remember, they don't always work and you still kinda have to concentrate and still follow the steps you normally would to LD. Like, I use Binaural beats along with DILD, DEILD, and WBTB. Some worked 1st try some took a few tries. Now a heads up, a handful of times, I think I have experience an astral projection with these. I entered SP, and had a strong vibration through my body that I could see and feel. So if you experience anything similiar, don't panic just continue on with your LD procedure. Let me know if there is any problems with the link.

[REM & LUCID DREAM ENHANCEMENT](5 hours long) Is my favorite video on the playlist. The 3rd try using it I had a Lucid Dream combining them with the DILD

I gave that one a try before bed to see what would happen. About ten minutes in I started getting this really bad anxious feeling and saw long black lines wiggling around in the upper part of my vision. It totally freaked me out but was awesome at the same time I had to stop since I was home alone the terror was doubled, but I'm going to try again next time I go to bed and my fiance is home.

I've still had no luck with binaural beats yet; I tried yesterday with the theta binaurals while WILDing, and still nothing. I'm starting to wonder if my mind is resistant to binaurals, LOL. I might give the video you just posted a try, see if it works for me.

Cool! They really only just make it easier, they arent a guarantee. I use em every night but I dont LD every night. Then again I have been getting lazy lol. Just make sure its a long one, and its loud enough to hear clearly but not keep you from falling asleep. And make sure to still follow through with your routine to whatever method you are using.

That's a great start man! Same thing happened to me. When I got further I felt, seen, and heard stron vibrations all over and around my body. Went I went further I had sleep paralysis and started to focus and I had a Lucid Dream shortly afterwards. It took my 3rd try to finally nail it cuz I too would get nervous in the beginning. Just remember when you get those feelings or the feelings I described, to stay calm and focus. And when you lucid dream try not to get super excited so it lasts as long as it can. Its really hard not to tho lol I got so stoked I focred myself awake and jumped on here lol. GOOD LUCK TO YOU BRO!

Oh that's awesome, I was kinda sad thinking it may have been having a different effect on me; I didn't think it would lead to lucid dreaming for me because I just assumed any binaural beat for dreaming should make me tired. So that's good to know that the same sensations happened to you as well before you fell into a lucid dream, it makes me more motivated!
