Many people want to dream lucidly. If you’re among them, the first thing you need to think about is how you want to go about learning.

It’s important to think about why you’d like to become a lucid dreamer, too. There are a number of benefits to dreaming this way, but first we should look at normal sleep, so we’ll understand them.

Have you ever considered the process of sleep before? Every night you make preparations, crawl into bed and go to sleep. You may have dreams or nightmares or all may just be dark for a few hours, it is rather boring isn’t it?

Normal sleep just seems to serve the purpose of simply refreshing ourselves in order to live out the next day. But what if you could control that period of time that you have dreams?

Consider the idea of taking control of your own dreams. What would it feel like to purpose what direction your dreams would take you? Explore new worlds that are only limited to your control and imagination. This is what it means to be a lucid dreamer, kind of the ultimate fantasy world where you call all the shots.

So if you want to become a lucid dreamer how do you do it? There are actually two ways. The first way is having a dream-initiated lucid dream (DILD), which is where the dreamer is in a dream and then realizes that they are, restoring their sense of consciousness within the dream.

The second method is called WILD, and stands for wake-initiated lucid dream. This is when you start out awake and fall asleep, but do not experience a change in consciousness levels. This is the process of simply entering a dream, the same way you’d walk through a door, instead of waking up inside the dream.

So what are the actual methods used to induce these two types of lucid dream experiences?

Dream Recall

If you’d like to lucid dream, perhaps one of the most successful way of doing so is known as dream recall. Dream recall is simply the ability to remember one’s dreams. By remembering your dreams, you are able to recognize them when you are sleeping, because most likely, you will have the same dream, or at least aspects of it, more than once.

To make dream recall easier you can keep a dream journal. This is a notebook or pad of paper that has the sole purpose of recording your dreams. Whenever you have a dream, you should write all you can remember in the journal as soon as you wake up. The longer you are awake the more details of the dream that will be lost.

Mnemonic Induction of Lucid Dreams (MILD)

This technique was developed by Dr. Stephen LaBerge, one of lucid dreaming’s lead scientists. The method used here is telling yourself that you’ll remember something in your dream. Once in the dream, you’ll see this object, recall what you told yourself, and realize you’re dreaming.

Wake-Back-to-Bed (WBTB)

The process here is to go to sleep, doing nothing but setting your alarm to wake you up a few hours later (5 or 6). Once you wake up, DO NOT go back to sleep. Instead, do something else like read for a while, or think as much as you can about lucid dreaming for around an hour then go back to bed.

In studies done this method has 60% of the time. When you are interrupted in the middle of sleep, you are interrupting rapid eye movement sleep. This is the time when dreams are the most active. Therefore, you stop in the middle of your best dreamtime only to return to sleep a short time later, improving your chances of entering lucid dream state.

Cycle Adjustment Technique

This was created by Daniel Love, and what it is, is setting your alarm to wake you up an hour and a half before your normal time. Once you’ve adjusted to waking up early, alternate your alarm to wake you up normally and early. During times you are to wake up normally, you’re body will already be ready to wake up early, and therefore, you will be likely to be awake in your dream.

Wake-initiation of Lucid Dreams (WILD)

When you consider all the methods and techniques wake initiated is by far the most intriguing way to enter lucid dreams. What you have to do is manage to keep the brain aware while the rest of you falls asleep. You can enter your dreams much like entering a theater. You go into watch the movie, set down and the light go down, (sleep) dark envelopes you just before the movements on the screen appear.

Several ways to stay aware but not awake include imagining descending or going up stairs, chanting, counting, breathing control, counting your breaths, and relaxing your body from head to toe. This all falls under self hypnosis. Don’t do this when you’re tired, or you’ll simply fall unconscious.

Technology has moved on in recent years, and there are various devices like dreaming masks and other scientific appliances which contain such things as strobe lights to induce lucid dreams.

Definitely the easiest and most reliable way of inducing a lucid dream however is by listening to binaural beats sound frequencies via headphones.

These work by synchronizing the two hemispheres of the brain and have the effect of almost instantaneously changing your brainwaves to the REM frequency needed for a lucid dream to occur.

With self-hypnosis and a conscious preparedness before you go to sleep anyone can practice lucid dreaming.

Ever since the release of the movie ‘The Secret’, thousands of people around the world have wanted learn all they can about the secret law of attraction. Numerous books also followed the release of the movie. Even before this, there had been a lot of information on the subject, but people really did not understand the concept and people still do not understand how the process works. Here you will find some information to help so that you too can understand the power of the law of attraction.

A lot of successful people have used the secret law of attraction either consciously, or unconsciously. With this power, a person has the ability to access all that they desire and become the person in which they want to be. All of this is done through the power of the mind and the way it works in determining our destinies.

The full development of soul, mind, and body is contingent to the material things that we possess in life. From those things we contain the ability to give to others we love. We become happy ourselves from the happiness we bring to others. Material things are important not only to our comfort but to our full development as human beings which is why the secret law of attraction is so important.

Freeing yourself of certain ways of thinking, will allow mastery of the law of attraction. You have to be able to understand that all things in life are just a substance of thoughts that one creates and it is from that everything is made. Your thoughts are what create your life the way in which you want. You are the person who contains the ability to change life and create it in the way you wish to live.

When you are working on the idea of something that you want, you have to be clear and specific about it. When you write down your desire you will enforce it and help the mind to achieve it. Whatever you write, should be based in the present tense, so your mind thinks of it as already something you have achieved. This is something that you should read on a daily basis, so that your mind fully understands the things you want and works towards it.

What you desire must be something that will make things better in your life. To achieve this your mind should also be clear of other thoughts so that you can focus and concentrate on the thing that you desire. One way to achieve this is through the use of meditation.

While concentrating on the things that you want, you should be in a place that is quiet to allow yourself to go into a state of relaxation. This way you can get in touch with the subconscious mind in order to access the universe. After you ask, you need to believe that it will come to you and that trust will make it more likely to work.

As you are asking for what you want, you need to visualize it clearly. See yourself with the things that you are going to have. Use your imagination throughout this process so that you can give the universe a clear picture of the things that you want. You should show gratitude afterward, since you know that you will receive. Every day you should feel grateful for the things you have now and not see anything in a negative light.

After you make the request, do not hold onto it. Just have faith and trust that the universe has heard your request and will deliver. Faith and trust is the real secret law of attraction.

A portion of our entire potential of mindpower is only used. Scientists believe we only access ten percent of full potential. It’s unthinkable of what it would be like if we could access that remaining ninety percent! The results would be incredible!

Whether born with extra sensory or psychic powers, scientists believe these are powers people were able to access within their own minds. Whether they had been born with these increased mindpower abilities or they were developed throughout life.

Through the process of quantum physics it is starting to be thought that the true nature or the link between real life and true nature is by what we think and what we experience in life.

Recent scientific studies are also beginning to confirm what the ancient beliefs have been saying for thousands of years. They believed that reality is just a product of your mind, and though the changes in the way you think, you can change your reality. Reality IS Mindpower!

There have been films about mindpower. ‘The Secret’ explains the theory of the law of attraction. Through the powerful mindpower a person can view life in a certain way and attract anything they want to into their life.

The theory of the law of attraction, concerns the entire universe and believes that everything people do creates a cause and has an effect. So no matter what you think about you can get! Learning to communicate though with your subconscious is a big part of this. You need to be able to tell it exactly what you want, or your mind will just believe that you have what you want. Scientifically this is known as a state of homeostasis.

Esp powers, telepathy, remote viewing, and precognition is controlled through the subconscious mind. This is also a reaction to the universe or what is known as universal consciousness to manifest your desires.

The way to develop your mindpower is through communicating through your subconscious mind. There are a number of ways that you can communicate with your subconscious mind. Affirmations, hypnosis, visualization, etc.

Repeating a positive phrase or affirmation to yourself several times a day your subconscious will get the message.

By repeating positive phrases is a way to break habits or change something you don’t like. For instance someone who wants to be confident may tell your subconscious mind how beautiful you are, or that everyone wants to be just like you. This is the most positive way to change the way we think.

Consistently repeating affirmations they really do work. They are able to communicate with the subconscious mind. How you program your subconscious through your affirmations, will make you behave differently so be careful cause your mind will eventually understand the message.

This works with everything in life. If you can put it in your mind in a positive way, and really store it in your subconscious mind you will change your life. You can make it all reality. Realize that everything you’d like to see change, will change and it really will.

Visualize what you want to see happen. Using what you see to develop mindpower is when you can close your eyes and think about what you’d like to happen. Your subconscious state of mind will react powerfully to those pictures. If you see yourself being successful, and think about everything you ever wanted for yourself. Visualize the new car you wanted, or that house you had your eyes on. If you were to cut out pictures of all the things you want before you sit down to visualize it all, you will see it clearer, and be able to focus. Do this often, and eventually all these things will appear in your life.

Think long and hard, about psychic powers and you can make yourself get them. Think of yourself communicating telepathically envision yourself being able to see into the future, or view remotely and through your mindpower you can make it happen!

Using hypnosis to communicate to your subconscious will help you to develop mindpower. You can visit a professional hypnotist or hypnotherapist and they will put you into a deep state of relaxation. Once in a deep state of relaxation you can get into that subconscious mind easier.

You can also try self hypnosis by listening to a recording of a hypnotherapists session. The advantages of doing self hypnosis is that it’s cheaper, and you can repeat the sessions by rewinding the recording and doing it again. The more you do it the more effective it could become.

Another training of your mind is through brainwave entrainment. A new brainwave synchronization audio technology that will tune your own brainwaves into a certain frequency. These frequencies are for all different things. At one frequency you can tune in to improve your memory. Another frequency releases natural endorphins to heal and alleviate any pain.

Other frequencies allow you to get into a state of meditation very quickly. This is necessary for you to be to successfully communicate with your subconscious mind.

Some frequencies may stimulate the chakra energy centers of your body. There is a chakra in the center of your forehead which is referred to the third eye which controls a person’s psychic powers.

The thought of developing these powers is not needed. These powers already exist within you. Many thousands of years ago humans had once thought that your enhanced mindpower is repressed and locked deep within your mind.

So developing mindpower is really just unlocking all your powers and true potential of being a human being.

Every one of us already has the ability to astral project. Many people astral project without being aware of it. However, it is learning to control the experience while astral projecting which is important and is what we will be discussing here.

We’re going to assume that you already know what the astral plane is and that you know about your astral body. Instead, we’ll go ahead and discuss methods that can help you learn how to astral project. Everyone does best with different techniques, so you may want to try different ones until you find one which is best for you.

The following technique is a five-step process which can be done as you’re lying in bed before you fall asleep.

*First; Relax your entire body completely. The best way to do this is to start with your toes and work your way upwards, tensing and then relaxing each part of your body. You’ll become deeply relaxed as you do this and your body may feel extremely heavy; this is perfectly normal.

*Second; Breathe slowly and deeply. This is something which is done while meditating. Focus on the sensation of the air moving through your lungs. Exhale as slowly as you inhale, imagining your stress floating away with each exhalation. Try not to fall asleep as you do this, though you may need to try this a few times before you can remain awake during this step.

*Third; Focus on the relaxed, heavy way your physical body feels. It probably feels like a heavy lump of clay or a slab of stone. Now turn your focus to the way that your astral body feels weightless and able to float free of your physical body. Imagine your astral body drifting upwards from the bed.

*Fourth; At this point, you may find that you’re able to see perfectly in your room even tough your eyes are closed. Your room will be bathed in purple light. Focus on the light coming from the ceiling.

*Fifth; Try to visualize pulling this light to your astral body. You’ll feel like you’re floating; this is your astral body floating above your physical body. Just look down and you’ll be able to see your bed with your physical body at rest below.

At this point you are now astral projecting and your astral body is free to begin traveling the astral plane. If you aren’t able to successfully astral project using this technique, you can try the following method.

This one is known as the gazing technique and it’s actually quite simple. Choose an object which you can see while you’re lying in bed and focus on it. It doesn’t matter what this object is, just make sure that it will be within your line of sight while you’re lying down.

With this object in your line of sight, lie in bed and focus on it. Even as your eyes begin to feel heavy, continue to focus on the object, staring at it. Eventually you won’t be able to keep your eyes open, but you should be able to see it even now with your eyes closed. You might feel like sitting or standing, so go ahead; but don’t panic when you see your sleeping physical body lying in bed!

Don’t give up if you don’t succeed the first time you try these techniques. Practice makes perfect and if you just aren’t having luck with these methods, there are plenty of others you can try. Just stick with it and be patient and you’ll learn how to astral project sooner than you think.

It’s less important how you do it as that you are able to get the message to your subconscious mind that there’s nothing to fear about astral projection and that it’s perfectly fine for your astral body to leave the physical realm and travel. One good way to communicate with your subconscious is to repeat affirmations to yourself.

Plenty of techniques can help you learn how to astral travel; you’ll find the right one for you with a little practice and possibly some trial and error.

Hypnosis is useful for many, since it can easily produce the deeply relaxed state needed. A guided hypnosis session is especially helpful, since you’ll have an expert to explain every step along the way.

New audio technologies called binaural beats can also help you learn to astral project. These specially designed recordings consist of slightly different frequencies played into each ear. The effect of these recordings is to place the listener into the meditative, deeply relaxed state where astral projection comes naturally.

It’s really not that hard to learn how to astral project. It’s simply a matter of practice. You already have this capacity, but you’ll need to work at it to develop this skill. Just like learning to ride a bike, it’s something you can already do, but some practice is needed to train yourself to do it well.

Chakras are the foci within our bodies where the energy which makes up our life force is generated. Chakra is a Sanskrit word meaning wheel; a good representation of the spherical energy field the word refers to.

There are six Chakras which are located along the spine and a seventh one above these, removed from the physical element of your body.

We think of these Chakras as being composed of energy; but it is very important to realize that the Chakras are closely related to and have influence over your physical body.

A healthy alignment of all of the seven Chakras will allow you to maintain your own health and happiness during your life. It is important to understand what each of the chakras is, and what it does for you.

Muladhara

The Muladhara is the chakra of the lower body. It is the root chakra, or the base chakra. This chakra is related to security, to survival, and to instinct. Also, it is related to the potentiality of the basic human life. The center of this chakra is located between the anus and the genitals of a person.

The chakra is said to relate to the adrenal glands inside the body – and is responsible for the flight or fight decisions a person must make during their life. Therefore, this chakra is in charge of your own fight or flight, and of those basic, human emotions.

Swadhisthana

The Swadhisthana is the chakra that contains the reproductive parts. The chakra is located in the area known as the sacrum. It relates to emotions such as sexuality and creativity. The chakra corresponds to the sexual organs, and produces the sexual hormones that guide our lives.

This is the Chakra which controls the sex hormones as well. This Chakra also is responsible for mood swings, It’s symbol is a six-petal lotus.

Manipura

The Manipura is the navel. It is considered to be the solar plexus chakra. This chakra deals with the transitions that are found between base emotions and complex emotions. The chakra itself is in charge of base emotions and complex emotions, and dictates the way that they flow into each other. It deals with the flow of energy, the flow of digestion, and can be compared to the way that the pancreas functions in the body.

The Manipura plays an important role in the way that food is converted into energy. It is symbolized by a ten petal lotus.

Anahata

The Anahata is the heart. It is related to the complex emotions, such as love and compassion, as well as overall well being and equilibrium. The chakra is related to the thymus, which is located in the chest. It is the equivalent to the immune system in a person’s body.

This chakra is symbolized by a twelve petal lotus. The love and the compassion are dictated by this chakra.

Vishuddha

The Vishudda is the throat. Symbolized by a sixteen petal lotus, it is in charge of both communication and growth. It is paralleled to the thyroid, and does the same thing.

The growth is a form of expression, so the Vishudda is in charge of expressions. Communication is a very important part of your every day life, and therefore this chakra is in charge of it.

Ajna

The Anja is your eyebrow or forehead. This Chakra is the third eye. Ajna is responsible for your ability to visaualize and is the Chakra related to light, time and awareness.

This Chakra is also in charge of the sleep cycle. The symbol of this Chakra is a two petal lotus.

Sahasrara

Symbolized by a one thousand petal lotus, the Sahasrara is the seventh and final chakra. It is the chakra of consciousness. It communicates with the rest of the body in the same manner that the pituitary gland does. The Sahsrara is connected to all of the body systems, and is the key player in consciousness.
