Thread: Talking to subconscious mind in lucid dream?

If I talked to my subconscious mind in a lucid dream(since this whole dream is in my subconscious) and I use positive affirmations directly to my unconscious mind,can this really have positive effect on my waking life just like hypnosis?(since that my conscious mind is asleep & can't reject these affirmations)

Try it out & see!

One thing tho, if your conscious mind is asleep then who or what part of you do you account for your wakefulness in you dreams?

No matter what myself included have experienced powerful changes using lucid dreams as ameans for exploring & accepting wellness

Exploration of the human mind was one of the most intriguing aspects of lucid dreaming to me. According to the gestalt therapy view on the subject, every par of your dream is a part of you. If there is a hideous monster in your dream, it is a representation of a characteristic or action that makes up a part of who you are yourself.

I personally have always wanted sit down and discuss life views with the reptilian portion of my brain over a cup of tea. The question then becomes, how would an entire portion of your consciousness be made to manifest itself in a dream world?

I imagine using positive affirmations inside of a dream would be similar to using them in waking life, unless you could conjure up the portion of you that would be resistant to the idea.

Another thing to think about has to do with the logic center of the brain, and its effect on perception. Like you said, during dreams it is shut off, and you'd have nothing to keep you from disbelieving any affirmations you'd want to convey. The trouble is, it's the absence of the left brain that allows us to truly believe that we're being chased by angry lawn gnomes with pitch forks in dreams. In the morning, however, the idea will seem pretty comical to us, and we'll wonder how we ever believed it was real in the first place.

I think there's a lot of validity in the idea of better mental health through lucidity, but it seems to me that there must be more to it than walking around dreamtown, shouting at the top of your lungs that you're going to ace your next midterm. I believe there's a way to do it, but in the end, it may just be a bit easier to study while you're awake Analogies aside, I wish you the best of luck with your experiment!
