Creative Sleep Program: Day 5 - Awareness
Having a basis of Dream Incubation to work with - now we take the Program One step further! lol
First is a detailed exploration of your waking reality.
- Choose a location reminiscent of your dream scenes you have in your dreams.
I'm dedicated to doing this right, but not enough to get in my car and drive to another location after I worked 8 hours. I went out on my balcony and observed from there :P

- Notice exactly where you are in relation to everything else. Take it all in and give yourself time to absorb the aesthetic and emotional impact of your surroundings.
It was PERFECT outside. The temperature was such that I could barely place whether I was feeling warm or cool, and there was a nice refreshing breeze. The trees swayed so surreally, and the fresh mown grass as well as the tree leaves were all vibrant in the setting sunlight that I actually had to RC haha. I felt very content and relaxed.
-Then consider that the place you chose is a reflection of your own personality and imagination. Out of all the places you could have gone, you came here. Ask yourself the following questions; What is it about this place that reminds me of my Dreams? Observe people around you, think about how everybody you see also has dreams
This made me laugh out loud. Even if I was tired from my day, I would probably choose my balcony anyway. I'm a simple man with simple pleasures and I often just dream about being at home, or another house I've lived in.
-Consider the possibility that those around you have also dreamed of this spot. How many things around you (buildings, products, artifacts) were inspired by unconscious images while somsone was dreaming? Could everything from the street you live on, to your personal tastes, at least on some level be a conscious expression of images from your own and other's Dreams?
I found this VERY interesting, I had never considered these thoughts before - what around me may have been inspired by the creators dreams?
- Get up and walk around, notice possible dream images around you
