I'm not sure what I am...
Hi,
My name is Graeme. I'm not sure what I am. I've been having different kinds of dreams for the last year and half. Most notably during the last year. Instead of feeling like I become "unconscious" when I fall asleep, I am aware that I am present all night. Present; not conscious. Instead, I just feel like I am there, aware of my existence. I don't know if this comes from the meditative states my mind is usually in during the day.
Anyway, when I dream I am aware that I am dreaming. This is all the time, except for nights where I konk right out, which happens once in a while. However, it is not that easy for me to simply label them as lucid dreams because I never have an urge to control them. I am aware that they are dreams, but I let them be what they are. I use a technique I have called Threading, but I would be interested in learning and trying some of the other techniques here. Once I read about MILD and VILD I realized that I have inadvertantly been doing those too.
Often times in my dreams I feel like I am on a journey. I am aware that I have come here, to this other part of my mind to learn and discover something. I use Threading to lead the way and cause the dream to materialize however it needs to. Often times it can be profound! One time I was led by a man to my grandma (recently deceased) who informed me that I have hypertension. Upon investigation, it looks like this is indeed the case! My dreams have also given me warnings and foresights before which turned out to be valid, which makes me suspect that when I go to the "unconscious" it is not just within my own brain!
Anyways, I would be interested in sharing experiences with anyone who is interested. Feel free to contact me anytime!
