I want to know how to have a lucid dream anytime I want to, and be aware that I’m dreaming and are actually asleep, but have it to where I had full control of the dream and could do anything, like flying, I want good tips or a link or a website that would be good for doing this.

Practice makes perfect(: Just keep exploring your dreams and trying different things. Flying is one of the easiest things to do, I did it my first time. Just lift yourself off the ground and start flying Superman style or "swim" through the air. Very easy. Also you can control everything so just remind yourself of that and command things to happen and they will.



Like, if it’s your first lucid dream experience?
I mean, in Lucid dreams you’re aware that you are in a dream. But, to master it you need to remember your previous dream. Can you just have a lucid dream from scratch?

Yes. A lucid dream does not require that you remember a previous dream, but that you are aware of your existence within the dream rather than just the viewing of yourself in the dream. Its like the difference between first person and third person in a video game. I think it must also be necessary to know or be aware of ones abilities in the waking life to have the dream be lucid.



I hear flying is a big hit for people who have lucid dreams. What other stuff have you done in lucid dreams? I have only had one lucid dream (that I know of) a long time ago, but I did not know it was a lucid dream thus I did not know how to control the dream… It ended badly and I woke scared. Recently I became introduced to lucid dreaming and it sounds fascinating.

BQ: Should everyone experience at least one lucid dream in their life time?

when i was a child i used to have lucid dreams..watever i was thinking while going to bed would come in the dream..



Is there any technique to slow down the perception of time in a lucid dream?

Thi is tough, as dreams, even in a lucid state, still run ont heir own time. I can control the dream direction, but not the passage of time



I need some for sure working techniuques on how to have a perfect well-working lucid dream. Any people who have experience, please give them as well.

I have tried a couple of things and the thing that worked was:
Every couple hours of every day look at your hand and ask yourself if your dreaming.
Also do it whenever something weird or unexpected happens. When you dream, you might look at your hand and realize that your dreaming.



I am able to obtain a lucid dream very often, to figure out that I am dreaming and control my actions. However shortly after realizing this, I lose the dream and wake-up. Does anyone who knows about lucid dreams have any suggestions as to how I can prolong my lucid dream once obtaining it? Everytime I come to the realization I am dreaming I almost immediately wake-up. I find them fascinating to learn about.

Try spinning around in your dream as you start to feel like your waking up. Also try rubbing your hands together in your dream. This will keep you from feeling your bed as you start to wake up. Try to keep calm in your dream. To much excitement will cause you to wake up.



How can I get started learning how to lucid dream (being fully aware you’re in a dream and then being able to change it willfully). Usually I just wake up when I realize I’m dreaming. Also what is lucid dreaming like? Are things more real? Do you remember what you dreamed when you wake up?

Before you learn to lucid dream you should learn to remember your dreams so when you do lucid dream you can remember them. I’ll try and put the ways I know of doing it the shortest I can:
1) Tell yourself out loud over and over again before you sleep "I will wake up and remember my dream fully." It sounds silly but it does help.
2) Keep either a pen and paper or a voice recorder nearby so you can record your dreams as soon as you wake up. Look for patterns in your dreams.
3. When you wake up in the morning, keep your eyes closed while trying to remember your dream. Start from the last bit of the dream you remember and work backwards, asking yourself "What did I do before that?"
When you’ve mastered that, you can move on to learning to lucid dream. There are two major ways of doing this:
1) Dream patterns. As mentioned before, look for patterns in your dreams. For example, I see my school a lot in my dreams. If you are dreaming and you see this pattern, you might just think "Hold on a second, I see that all the time in my dreams! What if I am dreaming?!"
2) Get into the habit of doing reality checks throughout the day. The best ways are to push your index finger against your palm and see if it goes through or not, to bite your arm and test if you feel anything, to count the fingers on your hand, look away, and count them again to see if the number has changed, look at your watch, look away and look at it again to see if the time is the same, and look at some text somewhere nearby, look away and look back again to see if it has changed. If you get into the habit of doing this, you might just do one of them in your dream and realise something is odd, therefore you must be dreaming. Some other reality checks include jumping in the air to see if you fly or not and leaning against the wall to see if you fall through it or not. You can also look in the mirror to see if your image looks foggy or distorted, but I don’t recommend this as it can sometimes look very scary and lead to a nightmare.

Hope I helped!



I really want to have a lucid dream but don’t know the right trick. They seem so cool, and also if you can some cool things to do in a lucid dream.

First of all, i-doser is a terrible program. Sorry people, I’ve done drugs for too long to get fooled into thinking that that BS works. Second of all, you’re going to have to do a couple things long term, not JUST before going to bed.

1. Check to see if you’re dreaming all the time. Look around you, ask yourself if things make sense, check to see if you know why you’re where you are. I know it seems a little weird, but eventually you’ll start doing it so automatically that you’ll start doing it in your dreams. The main reason people never realizing that they’re dreaming is because they never check.

2. Do what the guy above me said about wearing yourself out and waking yourself up. Really works. I don’t have to do it anymore because I’m a pretty good lucid dreamer, but it really helps!

3. If you smoke weed and you REALLY want to lucid dream, take a break for a while. When I stop smoking, I always have more vivid dreams, lucid or not. This is something I’ve noticed. If you are a smoker, and not smoking doesn’t do anything for you, I’m not going to stop you :)

4. Start writing down your dreams every morning. Even if you only remember a small detail, write it down. Your brain just gets trained to start remembering dreams.

5. When you start realizing that you’re dreaming, you’re also going to realize that they’re hard to control. The only thing you can really do is practice. Practice control over and over. Personally, sometimes I realize I’m dreaming and don’t try and take control. I just see what my brain has to say.



I’ve watched a few videos on youtube, but I still don’t understand what to do from the sleep paralysis step.

I’ve entered SP many times, and it kind of sucks, so I wanna know how to lucid dream from this step instead of just waking up. Do you just ignore it or what?

Before you enter sleep paralysis it would be good that you make sure you are close to the next REM cycle. Wake Back To Bed should be used to make sure of it… Just wake up after at least 4 to 6hours of sleep than tried the WILD (wake initiated lucid dream). Then you should stay still and be well relaxed just wait for dream you may also entered sleep paralysis. at some point you may and should have some illusion they may be of all kind (visual, auditory, touch…) this is when the sens start to focus on the inside and cut from the outside (waking) world. If your body is ready to enter REM you may succeed the transition part. it might feel like you are drifted kind of falling sensation into the dream… IT may do nothing at all and you resulting in believing you have failed. But Many WILD start with a false awakening do some reality check to make sure. Here’s a link for more info. http://dreamviews.com/community/showthread.php?t=66238



Im 16 years old and i can recall all my dreams perfectly fine. I been doing the wbtb method every night which seemes to increase the vivdness and everything, but i just havent had a lucid dream yet. anyone have some good tips?

try to go through the day and constantly look at something, like a clock. (works for me, because they are everywhere.) and every time you see it just tell yourself that "this clock is real" and then in your dream if you see a clock (and you probably will if you do this for a few days) your mind will recognize that the dream is real and you will gain slight consciousness, thus inducing a lucid dream.
-GOOD LUCK.
