My humble approach to lucidity
Hello peeps
I’m back, it’s me skip.
It’s been a *LONGGGGGGGG* time since i posted on this forum, but I’m back to just regular old lucid dreaming. Yay. Consider like, everything from this post:
https://www.dreamviews.com/introduct...ck-before.html
to be a time skip of some sorts.
Anyways, here’s my simple, simple, simple, approach to lucidity, that makes it really easy, makes me able to pull of omnilucidity (all dreams being lucid), and OBE’s quite well, very condensed and straight to the point.
Posting this here so it can solidify in my mind, and so that we both can remember it, heh, don’t worry about it.
1. No stress
All the emotions you experience in your waking reality, will affect you in your dreaming reality. Not a 1 to 1 exact ratio, but just be wary of your emotional health/stability
Whatever makes you feel good in general, keep doing it, whatever makes you feel good about lucidity keep doing it, and also what does good for you on all levels (physical, mental, emotional, ect..)
The emotions you focus on, determines your stress level, therefore determines how you experience dreams and lucidity.
If you feel overall happy, your dreams will reflect that, and vise versa with more “negative” emotions
Don’t use lucid dreaming as a form of escapism, handle your waking life problems with lucid dreaming first, then have fun, escapism is a lot more stressful and will make you more depressed, repressed, stressed, etc.
2. Expectations
This is a weird one. I say be exceptionless, but really i mean, be open minded to more than one possibility
It’s lucid dreaming, anything can happen, if you allow it to
If you wanna do something in a lucid dream, or if you wanna lucid dream, then have a strong expectation to do it.
Just like, when you go to the bathroom, naturally you expect to use the toilet, whenever you go to bed, expect to lucid dream
2.5. Feelings/belief
Throughout the day, truly believe and feel you are already a natural lucid dreamer with this ability
Pretend you are lucid most of the time, and really feel that you are, like be super confident in it
This of course takes a lot of doubt reduction/fear reduction, you can do this, by noticing how you feel when you say a mantra like “I am lucid”, see if you have any doubts/fears, and if you do, do the same thing i mentioned in 1-2, let it go, and realize, it isn’t really based off of anything 90% of the time.
Also, just realize that doubts are nothing but crutches
3. Routines
Use routines to help make lucidity feel more natural
Basically do everything, from 1-2.5 in repeat, each day, focusing on it, BUTTTTT, put your own unique spin to it,
Try experimenting with what makes your mind open to receiving lucid dreams, what makes you feel good/really relaxed, and what is naturally habitual
Lucid dreaming is very artistic in nature, so be artistic with it whilst in waking as well!
A simple approach really, once you are able to do something like this, for a few days, you’ll find it will become more natural, as you consciously dive into your own heart with lucid dreaming, it doesn’t need to be stressful and hard, just accept what you can handle naturally, yet have a strong desire for it, with wholesome reasons *(like not using it for escapism)*
That’s all for now, cyas
