Sleep is an integral part of life of every person, moreover, during sleep we spend about a third of his life. Dreaming is one of the spheres of the spiritual life of man, which, despite the contributions of many scientists in understanding the nature of dreams, still represents something mysterious and incomprehensible to the end. In this article we will focus on categories such as lucid dreaming. What is it? What is its practical significance? How can I understand that the person is in the dream? The answers to these questions you will find in this article. Lucid dreaming (OS) is an altered state of consciousness in which a person realizes that sleep, and maybe in varying degrees, to manage the content of the dream. For better understanding we give the following example: if in ordinary sleep you are as an actor, or even puppets that can't control your actions and plays on imposed scenario, in a lucid dream you have you control the dream plot.

Learning to realize a dream, you have the opportunity to experience the emotions and situations that are impossible in ordinary life, until such supernatural, like flying, passing through walls, move objects by thought, or, for example, a conversation with albert Einstein, etc.

 





In addition, the practice of lucid dreaming.

— to live a full life, including the night;
— to be creative, without any restrictions;
— to travel, to visit different places;
— speaking with famous people (like Einstein);
— to carry out their cherished desire;
modeling problem situations and finding a way out of them, for example, freedom from fear and phobias, acquiring self-confidence and transfer these feelings into everyday life, which carries therapeutic value.

... and more, because OS provides a great opportunity, and any restrictions are very conditional and depend on your skills of control over the dream that will grow as your practice of lucid dreams.

Now we come to the part of the article where is described how to achieve mindfulness.

The simplest method of training lucid dreaming is the so-called test of reality. It is a set of exercises that allow you to determine if the person is in the real world or in a dream. At first, these exercises should become a habit in the waking state, and then seep into the world of dreams. Do not have to resort to all exercises, it is enough to choose a pair of most suitable and to exercise daily as much as possible the number of times (at least 10).

 

So, to understand whether you sleep or not, you can use the following simple steps:
 

1. Long look at your hands in a dream they beginning to change.

2. Look at the clock twice – if the time is different, you sleep.

3. Try to read some text twice. The principle is the same as clock.

4. Generally look at anything twice, that carries information.

5. To turn on/off the light. In the dream the switch may not work, or not work as in real life.

6. Try to scroll in the mind by previous events in your dream that you are unlikely to succeed.

7. Look in the mirror. In the dream the reflection is modified.

8. Try to find differences in an atmosphere of dreams from the same place in reality.

9. Poke with a finger palm. Turned out – you sleep.

10. To a grinding halt. In the dream it is impossible not to move.

In addition, during sleep there may be situations which will help you understand what you are sleeping. For example, in a dream may not work causation. If something went wrong, be a logical question "and not a dream?". When you dream you are riding in the car on a familiar route, monotonous stretches of road missing. Dreamt of deceased relatives, may also contribute to the "awakening from sleep".

But not all so simple: during sleep there is a certain belief according to which everything that happens is a dreamer taken at face value, and, no matter how unbelievable would not be a dream, people will think that is reality. Given in this article methods to realize a dream aimed at destroying this belief, but even they can't guarantee a perfect result.Much of the success will depend on volitional aspirations, confidence in achieving the result, patience and of course practice.

Before the test of reality should want to send yourself a question like "And am I asleep?". It is recommended to associate the audit to the reality with any everyday ritual (e.g. going to the toilet) or in any remarkable object that you often see in your dreams, and everyday life (the analogue of ula from the movie "Inception"). So, you can take yourself installation, every time you go to the toilet, you take a reality check.

Or, for example, validation will occur when you pick up or look at an object: keys, ring, bracelet, car... the Anchor (label, mascot) can be anything to successfully choose, consider what the motives and characters you dream about most often. Sooner or later, this habit will become your dreams. To realize yourself in your sleep and without "label", but its use increases the likelihood of lucid dreaming.

It is also recommended to keep a diary of dreams that will allow you to develop a good memory dreams in sleeping. Dreams it is best to write immediately after waking up, first restore their story in my head. The sooner you record your sleep, the less detail will be lost from its contents. Before bed several times say the following statement "tonight I realize myself in a dream" — this will also increase your chances of success.

It is also worth to think in advance what actions you would like to do in a lucid dream. It is necessary at least to ensure that you are not confused, realizing itself in a dream. If the OS you understand that control over the sleep lost, the picture becomes dim and fuzzy, as it usually happens before awakening, it is recommended to spin around itself, thereby to extend the period of awareness.

Given in this article methods of self-awareness in the dream are not exhaustive, however, according to the author, they represent a clear and accessible basis for people wanting to dive into the world of lucid dreaming. Success!published
