To be lucid you need to remember you are dreaming. Memory is crucial, developing a good memory is very important. Concentration, focus of the mind is vital. MOST important you need to believe it is not hard and you can do it.

If people tell you it is hard they are trying to hard. Maybe if they stop trying they will succeed. But I cant concentrate what was I saying?? Oh yeah we get distracted easily in life but we also use memory and concentration all the time. So you already know how to do this.

The most common unwanted lucid dream is found in students. Why? They study all the time they develop their memory and they concentrate. So they have a higher than average experience of sleep paralysis. “SLEEP PARALYSIS? ” you ask “I thought we were talking of lucid dreams?”

My favorite way in to a lucid dream is through sleep paralysis. Just get up and walk away if you succeed you are either awake or dreaming. If you TRY to HARD you can't move. You don't want to sleep walk, it IS A SAFETY Mechanism after all. Not an attack by demons as some have foolishly believed.

So simply try lightly, imagine you are getting up without moving and POP your dream body starts to move……..

The real question is so what will you do now? Get so excited you wake up? Wonder “but what should I do???” and start thinking so hard you wake your self up??? …..Or have a plan from when you were awake? And just go and try that out.

Flying is always good. But do a brief reality test. Stand on one leg for example, then on no legs first, rather than jumping out the window first. Think about it!! What if sleep paralysis didn't work?

The biggest advantage gained from lucid dreaming is, conquering all fears, ending all nightmares.
We only allow our self to experience a particular amount of reality. Some times too much "reality" scares us. We only let so much reality enforce itself upon us. If any revelation is too much for us we quickly switch off, run away or ignore that which doesn't fit the description of the reality we are prepared to accept. We wake up. In that sense it is we ourselves who chose to create our own realities! When we encounter a reality, too strange, too different, from that which we wish to accept, we have trained reality itself, to reveal it self to us, very slowly, and at a pace we are happy to receive it at.
