During one of my dreams someone came up to me and told me, now would be a good time to become lucid, but I should better go to the toilet. So I woke up and he was right, it was quite urgent. Until now that was the closest I got to a lucid dream. I think, my brain makes fun of me 🤡
Man I love how you explain things! I HAVE been saying ' I WILL Lucid Dream Tonight ' with much gusto and determination and now I feel silly lol! Thank you once again for the clear explanations!
Thank you so much, and don't worry, there's so much of that nonsense out there, and they're very convincing. As with so much in life, we don't know what we don't know, and the scammy types take advantage of that. Just glad that I can be of some help to stop you wasting your time! Stay lucid!
I just had my second AND third lucid dream in the same night. I never really believed that it felt so real but now I do. The dream environment is unbelievably similar to the way the real world feels. In both I also remembered to do my reality tests and engage my senses throughout it :)
@@Randomtube265 It was just a lucky night. I have been having a lot of dreams about a person who I haven't seen in a while, so I've been telling myself if I ever see them, then I am dreaming. And that night I actually remembered that. And then the second dream was a false awakening and I could just tell something was off so I reality tested.
Well First lucid Dream Dream plaza Everything was so real i could feel the Cold of the Metal and Everything was very real and did you fly or Tasted some starbucks?
@@DanielLoveOrg Thanks . I just wish my friends and family would also try it. There all scared lol . I told them what you said its not astral projection.
@@DanielLoveOrgI have a doubt though: when I have to check in real life if it's a dream I'm forced to say aloud "is this a dream right now?" or can I just think that phrase in my mind? I hope you answer me
That is a great twist to the usual mantra that gets posted everywhere, and it makes so much more sense. I don't use mantras often, but it is clear that I have fallen for the trap, and have been doing it incorrectly.... until now. Thanks again as always, Daniel!
Very good video! A scientific and logical method to take down some of the . Are you dreaming? Yes. I’m asking this in all seriousness. Are you dreaming right now? Stop thinking that lucid dreaming will come tonight. Tonight never comes. Stop arrogantly assuming that you’re awake. Bring yourself into the eternal now. Perform all your reality tests with an open critical mind, and with complete seriousness. Remember, there is always an 10% chance, at any given moment, that this is all a dream.
That’s a very clever way of explaining and illustrating why the “mantra technique” doesn’t work if it’s not done correctly. I’m thankful I never got into that particular part of the misinformation side of lucid dreaming before I ended up here.
Oh man, what would we do without this channel. Thank you for constantly correcting the wrong informations that are available out there.:) BTW, I have had my first semilucid dream today during a nap since over 3 month:) it was short, but I am so glad it happend again.
This idea is what keeps me from procrastinating. Thinking that I'll put whatever it may be until next time, and not changing the present moment. I will keep putting whatever it is off until next time is now... and the cycle continues. I used to say that procrastination would be my super power, if I had one. Thinking this way is like shooting yourself in the foot, because it is programming yourself that this is the way it is, and it will not change. Thank you for yet another wonderful video! 🙃
Thank you man! I had my first lucid dream last night due to one simple fix which is instead of saying “I will lucid dream tonight” I instead said “Am I dreaming?” Which actually helped.
Thanks brilliant news, well done! It'll be the first of many, just stick with the practices, remember it's a marathon and not a sprint, and you'll be a fully-fledged oneironaut in no time!
Hey again im back from lucid dreaming because life has been so boring and im done letting my self healthly so i will watch some of your videos and your videos have been really helpful
i had a lucid dream once saying "i will lucid dream tonight" (it was on my first night trying so it was amazing for motivation), i just realized that it was DILD and not because of the mantra. i have not had a lucid dream in 30 days, but i recently switched to trying WILD. im now trying to find the point when im in rem sleep, your video's have helped a lot by keeping me motivated and giving advice.
fantastic video, never thought about it with that sort of analogy. my dream recall has suffered lately... but i got a 1 min WILD last week so i know i haven't lost it. my longest LD is still only a few minutes
Love your channel I have been learning about lucid dreaming for years and man I can say you keep it real and are very intelligent and explain things very well. At work rn I don't know how I can thank you for what you do I'm sending you love from quebec in canada :))
Finally got around to watching it, and this is great, I will remember to use this in the future. (Well, I've never used many mantras, but I AM trying to work with my prospective memory).
I think this is a very good principle for making stuff happen in general! I am very bad when it comes to revenge bedtime procrastination (trying to make up time in the night when there is technically leisure time, which should ideally be used for sleep instead). I keep telling myself what I'm going to do next time to avoid it and then that gets in a vicious cycle. It manages to slip in one way or another even though I initially have good intentions. Rather than saying I'm not going to this tomorrow and do that instead, right then is when I should doing that rather than saying to do that. When I make a plan to do something like that, I should also stick to the original plan and not let other things slip in there. If one thing will slip, 10+ more things will then too. It isn't about limiting what slips; it's about cutting those extra things off altogether. I think this will help me with lucidity most right now because revenge bedtime procrastination is definitely killing my chances and healthy sleep, for only a little, almost unappreciative more productivity in waking life. Also, writing this comment is almost killing that too due to paralysis by analysis. It happens NOW, not tomorrow!
I recently had a lucid dream but when I went outside to fly I couldn't because I didn't have enough control. I will remember to question if I'm dreaming.
MangoFish, you absolute wonder. Thank you! - And yes you're absolutely right, it's mindboggling why people so easily latch onto such ideas when just a little bit of pondering would save them wasting a lot of time.
I always found mantras a bit annoying and useless. When I was going through rough patches, everyone would tell me to repeat mantras over and over again, telling me that if I repeated them, I would eventually feel better. Of course I didn't really do that because I didnt understand how that could work. I never used mantras for lucid dreaming as I didn't understand how they were supposed to work and I'm somewhat glad I avoided this "I will lucid drean tonight" loop. What I might try to do from this video is change how I reflect on my reality tests. I've got into the habit of saying "chances are [based on the results of tests] I'm probably awake, however, I could be wrong" due to a livestream from over a year ago. I'm thinking about changing it to what you suggested in this video because I know I'm not reality testing enough throughout the day. I may need to modify it as the thought of reality testing can become overwhelming and intrusive (did you check good enough? Check again, check again), but it seems like it can help. Thanks for the wonderful video! I always seem to get new take aways and insights every week! And apologies if I seem very all over the place in the comment, I am very much out of it as I'm writing this!
No worries stumped, it seems to be one of those out-of-it kind of days! - I completely understand that reality testing can be quite challenging, we're always battling the mind's natural tendency to automate regular actions - so it's good to mix it up a little now and then, keep it fresh. They really do have to be done in complete seriousness, with the expectation that *now* is when lucidity happens, not the future. So always be prepared to be shocked!
Month 4 Lucid dreams 8 I had 4 lucid dreams on this month, 2 were short and 2 were about even 2 mins. I think a video about how to stabilise the dream would be helpful. Actually in my dreams I feel like I have a vision problem.
Thank you so much for the recent videos. They've been helping me a lot more than you may think. I was wondering if you could do a short or video if melatonin or any other sleep pills affects lucid dreaming. Thank you!! ❤😊
Just had my first lucid dream tonight by accident!! I made a reality check and the dream just faded away and I woke up. Do you have any tips to not let the dream fade away?
I use an app that sends me random notifications throughout the day reminding me to do reality checks and then plays the same sound in the middle of the night trying to get my dream self to do reality checks. Is this a reliable way of doing it or are there better ways of doing reality check? What others ways of remembering to do reality checks are there?
This technique remembers of a time some months ago, in which I used some kind of similar technique and it worked. The thing is that, to this day, I don't know what I did to make it work. I was in a normal night, before going to bed, thinking about what I could use to get to lucid dreaming. I don't remember too much of that night apart from in the moment that I was already trying to sleep. I started to repeat in my mind the phrase "I'm aware in my dreams and I have full control", trying to do it until the very moment before entering a dream or just sleeping. Something probably key of that moment, is that I felt comfortable and very relax, I remember it was like some bluish image behind my eyes and very blurry, it was like the perfect state and moment. I remember trying to see if I could get excited or something like that, and I couldn't, I was just relaxed and my mind just couldn't overthink. After that, I remember that I entered in a dream, instantly lucid, not very vivid but enough to enjoy a little bit. I don't remember nothing about that dream past that. I really don't know what I did to achieve that state of relaxation and focus. (In advance, an apology in case I have a bad English, I'm not a native speaker)
I usually have problems with lucid dreaming and wake myself up early because I struggle with intrusive thoughts and fear how that would effect my lucid dreams, is this a valid concern and if so is there any advice in how to have better control over my lucid dreams despite these negative thoughts?
hey daniel i had a dream last night and i said to myself in the dream “if i was dreaming a brick would appear behind me” i’ve never done that reality check before but i heard from you it’s good for dream control and i guess my brain picked it up some how lol , well i turned around and the brick appeared and i was like super confused but i never got lucid then like 5 seconds later i woke up is this a good sign? (i’m about 3 weeks in right now)
me the day before yesterday. I had a semi lucid dream. i felt so conscious in the beginning of the dream. and i wanted to fly again but i thought it was kinda exciting and was going super fast so i stopped.unfortunately i lost my lucidity fast. and I doubted whether it had full lucidity in the beginning. but i call this dream as a semi donation for your video
It sounds to me like you're making continued and good progress Jim, certainly your regularity is on the up - and with regularity comes the opportunity to fine-tune awareness during the dream. So be proud of yourself! - And thank you so much for your support!!!!
A really long time ago, I had a dream about lucid dreaming.but I was in third person. It started out by me being on a blue bus with my friends that I met. One of my friends walk up to me and say "you are dreaming" and I said "no way" and he said "look" and spawned a mattress in front of the bus. I started feeling walls and questioned about how it felt real. Then I wanted to make a clock to stop time instead of just trying to stop it which was a clear indicator I was not lucid in the dream, so I spawn a box infront of me called a time stop watch making kit, and i got so frusterated trying to build it that i woke up
Ugh, I remember trying to do mantras really early on when I was first starting based on the top result on the subject I got on youtube about two years ago, a certain Extremely Loud Dingdong
You once said on one of your recent videos, correct me if im wrong, 1 year of practicing lucid dreaming, doing the reality testsm shiftinf your way of thinking will get you regular lucid dreams that are short. How short would you say?
I have had as many as 40 lucid dreams till date but I am not so much disciplined.i irregularly do reality check practice and dream journalling. I have read your book. But didn't apply well . The watch the hand trick did work once the very day I read in your book which says I will see my hands in my dream and I will know that I am dreaming it was once but due to my lack of discipline I could not become pro but I am an active dreamer. Thank you so much I love your channel yesterday I took the level 1 membership. Can you advice me anything please and may be if you specifically tell me to be disciplined I might succeed. It's been 3 years of lucid learning read many books. But still behind. But let me tell you something. I am a real goat in my dreams (non lucid. ). Nothing scares or hurts me. But I have one major problem I can't teleport. Even though I do try to do all trucks. Teach me please what can I do to teleport.
Don't think of anything as "tricks" this is the wrong mindset. You are learning skills. And with that in mind, I absolutely recommend discipline - it is the only way to achieve your long term goals. I'd recommend by starting with the 19 day course here on the channel (available to VIP+ members - so you might need to upgrade to the VIP membership for one month) - it will guide you step by step! :)
So, yesterday I had a funny dream. I somehow did 2 realty checks, and me in my dream was like lucid, but not me in the reality. So I actually had a dream about lucid dreaming...
You're better off focusing on regained awareness lucid dreams (aka DILDs), so this would mostly involve daytime practices such as dream journaling, regular reality checks, and techniques such as MILD
@LucidDreamPortal thank you so much for the reply Daniel, you are so helpful, just started getting into lucid dreaming, and have binged watched your videos, I'm going to become a member really soon, do I can do your 30 day class and learn more, you are awesome 👍
Imagine trying to hammer in a nail with a hotdog sausage, you could try really hard but never succeed. There is so much misinformation out there on this subject that it's likely you've been following advice that would waste your time. My advice, forget anything you've learnt from the kinds of people who suggest repeating mantras, or sticking your finger through your palm, and start from scratch with the right tools. If you're serious, try the 19 day course here on the channel, it costs about the same as a coffee and will give you a guided step-by-step approach based on legitimate sleep science (as that's my job) .
The only affirmation I used to use for inducing a LD was this one, 'I will become more self-aware when I am dreaming'. Is this an effective affirmation for LDing?
No, I wouldn't recommend anything that references awareness or lucidity, they are too nebulous and complex to imagine (try imagining "awareness" it's basically impossible, and instead we imagine behaviours related to it - similar to trying to imagine being drunk, or any other specific state of mind). So if we use terms that are vague and hard to imagine, the brain just overlooks them. This technique helps to side-step that: www.thelucidguide.com/Techniques/Task-Triggered-Lucidity
Hey Daniel, Long time and im back again at you mr comment section. I think you remember me. I'm thinking of starting ld-ing again but theres a problem. Im 10th grade now and in India, 10th is a very very important class. I dont want to put all my energy into ld and just ruin my studies. BUT! I still want to lucid dream😅😅. Will Lucid dream distract me? If you forgot, I had some lucid dreams in the past like 9 or 10. And also I found my old dream journal which I was searching for a long time. Do you have any tips for returning lucid dreamer❤❤ Cheers mate.
Hi Teabiscuit, yes I remember you. First things first, make sure your studies are your priority - you have a whole lifetime to lucid dream, but only once chance to complete your studies effectively. So definitely don't do anything to risk that! If you want to do lucid dream practice alongside study, and in a way that is beneficial. I would focus your practice on regular reality tests, dream journaling, and meditation. You may also want to occasionally use some techniques like MILD during a morning nap. These are passive techniques, that will give you more sleep, help improve your memory and focus, and help you to learn to stay calm and relaxed under pressure. All things that should also aid your study. But, priority number one... study!
This is an important question when somebody lucid dream do they see with there physical eyes or with there mind eyes or does it depends on the indivitual?
How to properly do the reality tests if me don't feel so much (strong) emotions during the entire day? And also when the emotions/feelings which most appear in my dreams don't appear during the waking day?
This video may be of help, if you haven't seen it yet: ua-cam.com/video/VN9ATfqBAdY/v-deo.html But the trick is to catch yourself when you move from clear thinking into autopilot.
I don't support any kind of book piracy - it's direct theft from the author (which would be very un Buddhist!). I own every book ever written on lucid dreaming, including all the Tibetan (and other) religious texts. As a professional sleep and dream researcher, it's my job to make sure I an well informed. But my website (link in channel description) has a contact form.
@@DanielLoveOrgI previously think that you don't have the books about the Tibetan yoga. I would like a video about the difference of the approach of the eastern and western techniques for lucid dreaming. Also you say that to become lucid in dreams we must pay attention to what distracts us in the dreams, and the Tibetan yoga teaches that to become lucid in the dream we must have mindfulness in waking life, and this led me to think how each technique can relate to each other

One thing I say to everyone: If you ever meet me, the very first thing I'll ask is "Are you dreaming right now?". If I don't ask this, you're definitely dreaming. (oh and heads-up, it's really lovely to be appreciated for my work - but please keep messages appropriate and respectful)

I repeated the mantra so much i had a dream about trying and having a lucid dream, crazy
Instructions unclear, will repeat "I won't lucid dream tonight, I won't lucid dream tonight."
Joking to boost video!
I just had my second AND third lucid dream in the same night. I never really believed that it felt so real but now I do. The dream environment is unbelievably similar to the way the real world feels.
In both I also remembered to do my reality tests and engage my senses throughout it :)
That's really great progress, well done! - And yes, it's bonkers how perfectly dream replicate reality isn't it!
How do you do it? your so lucky to lucid dream multiple times a night
@@Randomtube265 It was just a lucky night. I have been having a lot of dreams about a person who I haven't seen in a while, so I've been telling myself if I ever see them, then I am dreaming. And that night I actually remembered that. And then the second dream was a false awakening and I could just tell something was off so I reality tested.
Because IMO what we call the real world is similar to a collective dream with strict rules that we leave after death. All is mind.
Well First lucid Dream Dream plaza Everything was so real i could feel the Cold of the Metal and Everything was very real and did you fly or Tasted some starbucks?
I had my second Lucid dream on my command. This is so amazing
Congratulations!

This was eye opening. I am glad to slowly unlearn the bs I've learned from explore lucid dreaming years ago.
Keep up the good work uploading educational videos. It was very helpful.
That's brilliant!!! I've been doing it wrong the whole time. Thank you, Daniel!
"I will remember to question my if I am dreaming"
I put that to work
Thanks for clearing something up. I probably wouldn’t have noticed this
Very important to keep in mind.👍
excellent point made from La guía lúcida, the point is to be lucid rigth now, thanks a lot for sharing.
Lucid: The tao of dreaming, page 30
I got it, thats why we remember nightmares more than non lucid dreams.
i had a lucid dream once saying "i will lucid dream tonight" (it was on my first night trying so it was amazing for motivation), i just realized that it was DILD and not because of the mantra. i have not had a lucid dream in 30 days, but i recently switched to trying WILD. im now trying to find the point when im in rem sleep, your video's have helped a lot by keeping me motivated and giving advice.
That really makes so much sense. I am trying this tonight.
fantastic video, never thought about it with that sort of analogy.
my dream recall has suffered lately... but i got a 1 min WILD last week so i know i haven't lost it.
my longest LD is still only a few minutes

Month 4
Lucid dreams 8
I had 4 lucid dreams on this month, 2 were short and 2 were about even 2 mins.

Heard you can hug something in your dreams, or focus on your surroundings to prevent waking up

Is this a reliable way of doing it or are there better ways of doing reality check? What others ways of remembering to do reality checks are there?
No don't use that, that's like having a robot do sit-ups for you and expecting a six pack.

Bro i had a lucid dream last night it was crazy
Nice one! Keep it up!!
Hi Daniel, I have a question. Can you use Lucid Dreaming to live through your earliest real memories?
I usually have problems with lucid dreaming and wake myself up early because I struggle with intrusive thoughts and fear how that would effect my lucid dreams, is this a valid concern and if so is there any advice in how to have better control over my lucid dreams despite these negative thoughts?
hey daniel i had a dream last night and i said to myself in the dream “if i was dreaming a brick would appear behind me” i’ve never done that reality check before but i heard from you it’s good for dream control and i guess my brain picked it up some how lol , well i turned around and the brick appeared and i was like super confused but i never got lucid then like 5 seconds later i woke up is this a good sign? (i’m about 3 weeks in right now)
If you are reading this, I’m really stuck on remembering my dreams every morning. I’ve got a dream journal, I’ve had for one month
Great stream learned lots ^^ ! Also, Video idea: Thomas Edison Semi-Lucid Experiment.
Isnt saying " i will question reality" putting the same time distance as "i will lucid dream tonight"? Thanks for your work Daniel.
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your support usmansheikh - it's brilliant people like yourself that make videos like this possible!
me the day before yesterday. I had a semi lucid dream. i felt so conscious in the beginning of the dream. and i wanted to fly again but i thought it was kinda exciting and was going super fast so i stopped.unfortunately i lost my lucidity fast. and I doubted whether it had full lucidity in the beginning. but i call this dream as a semi donation for your video
It sounds to me like you're making continued and good progress Jim, certainly your regularity is on the up - and with regularity comes the opportunity to fine-tune awareness during the dream. So be proud of yourself! - And thank you so much for your support!!!!
@@DanielLoveOrg I had nothing for 2 weeks. i have an xbox so i was gaming a lot.😮💨
A really long time ago, I had a dream about lucid dreaming.but I was in third person. It started out by me being on a blue bus with my friends that I met. One of my friends walk up to me and say "you are dreaming" and I said "no way" and he said "look" and spawned a mattress in front of the bus. I started feeling walls and questioned about how it felt real. Then I wanted to make a clock to stop time instead of just trying to stop it which was a clear indicator I was not lucid in the dream, so I spawn a box infront of me called a time stop watch making kit, and i got so frusterated trying to build it that i woke up
The only time i had a lucid dream was in a dream where a lady said welcome to your dream world and i realized im in a dream
Ugh, I remember trying to do mantras really early on when I was first starting based on the top result on the subject I got on youtube about two years ago, a certain Extremely Loud Dingdong
I want to have a lucid dream so baddd
Thank you
Keep going💓💓💓❤️❤️💖💜
Wil do! ❤️🔥
Perspective enhanced
You once said on one of your recent videos, correct me if im wrong, 1 year of practicing lucid dreaming, doing the reality testsm shiftinf your way of thinking will get you regular lucid dreams that are short. How short would you say?
Bro is so unlucky with the algorithm
I have had as many as 40 lucid dreams till date but I am not so much disciplined.i irregularly do reality check practice and dream journalling. I have read your book. But didn't apply well . The watch the hand trick did work once the very day I read in your book which says I will see my hands in my dream and I will know that I am dreaming it was once but due to my lack of discipline I could not become pro but I am an active dreamer. Thank you so much I love your channel yesterday I took the level 1 membership. Can you advice me anything please and may be if you specifically tell me to be disciplined I might succeed. It's been 3 years of lucid learning read many books. But still behind. But let me tell you something. I am a real goat in my dreams (non lucid. ). Nothing scares or hurts me. But I have one major problem I can't teleport. Even though I do try to do all trucks. Teach me please what can I do to teleport.
Don't think of anything as "tricks" this is the wrong mindset. You are learning skills. And with that in mind, I absolutely recommend discipline - it is the only way to achieve your long term goals. I'd recommend by starting with the 19 day course here on the channel (available to VIP+ members - so you might need to upgrade to the VIP membership for one month) - it will guide you step by step! :)
Great video as always!
So, yesterday I had a funny dream. I somehow did 2 realty checks, and me in my dream was like lucid, but not me in the reality. So I actually had a dream about lucid dreaming...
U r genius
I am become lucid
Hi Daniel, what would be the best tecnique for a humming bird? Thanks
You're better off focusing on regained awareness lucid dreams (aka DILDs), so this would mostly involve daytime practices such as dream journaling, regular reality checks, and techniques such as MILD
@LucidDreamPortal thank you so much for the reply Daniel, you are so helpful, just started getting into lucid dreaming, and have binged watched your videos, I'm going to become a member really soon, do I can do your 30 day class and learn more, you are awesome 👍
Iv been trying for months to lucid dream and NOTHING… I mean NOTHING, has worked. It seems that it literally just impossible for me. Any help?
Imagine trying to hammer in a nail with a hotdog sausage, you could try really hard but never succeed. There is so much misinformation out there on this subject that it's likely you've been following advice that would waste your time.
My advice, forget anything you've learnt from the kinds of people who suggest repeating mantras, or sticking your finger through your palm, and start from scratch with the right tools.
If you're serious, try the 19 day course here on the channel, it costs about the same as a coffee and will give you a guided step-by-step approach based on legitimate sleep science (as that's my job) .
The only affirmation I used to use for inducing a LD was this one, 'I will become more self-aware when I am dreaming'. Is this an effective affirmation for LDing?
No, I wouldn't recommend anything that references awareness or lucidity, they are too nebulous and complex to imagine (try imagining "awareness" it's basically impossible, and instead we imagine behaviours related to it - similar to trying to imagine being drunk, or any other specific state of mind). So if we use terms that are vague and hard to imagine, the brain just overlooks them. This technique helps to side-step that: www.thelucidguide.com/Techniques/Task-Triggered-Lucidity
@@DanielLoveOrg OK, thanks for the reply. I had a feeling this affirmation was unreliable.
Hey Daniel,
Long time and im back again at you mr comment section. I think you remember me. I'm thinking of starting ld-ing again but theres a problem. Im 10th grade now and in India, 10th is a very very important class. I dont want to put all my energy into ld and just ruin my studies. BUT! I still want to lucid dream😅😅. Will Lucid dream distract me? If you forgot, I had some lucid dreams in the past like 9 or 10. And also I found my old dream journal which I was searching for a long time. Do you have any tips for returning lucid dreamer❤❤ Cheers mate.
Hi Teabiscuit, yes I remember you.
First things first, make sure your studies are your priority - you have a whole lifetime to lucid dream, but only once chance to complete your studies effectively. So definitely don't do anything to risk that!
If you want to do lucid dream practice alongside study, and in a way that is beneficial. I would focus your practice on regular reality tests, dream journaling, and meditation. You may also want to occasionally use some techniques like MILD during a morning nap.
These are passive techniques, that will give you more sleep, help improve your memory and focus, and help you to learn to stay calm and relaxed under pressure. All things that should also aid your study.
But, priority number one... study!
@@DanielLoveOrg❤️❤️ thanks mate
This is an important question when somebody lucid dream do they see with there physical eyes or with there mind eyes or does it depends on the indivitual?
I've experienced lucid dreams so many times....
Lucky
it's crazy that some people say that the MILD technique is just repeating a mantra (and at the beginning i fell for it too)
It's absolutely shocking isn't it, it's amazing how silly ideas spread like wildfire!
ที่ปฎิบัติอยู่คือ
ฉันจะมีสติเตือนตัวเองอยู่ตลอดว่า
ฉันกำลังฝันอยู่
เทคนิคที่ต้องทำเพิ่มคือ สักพักฉันจะเตือนอีกว่าให้เช็คว่าฝันอยู่หรือเปล่า
ตอนนี้คุณกำลังฝันอยู่หรือเปล่า?
@@DanielLoveOrg อาจเป็นไปได้ ต้องเช็คก่อน
ฉันเคยฝันว่า เขียนความฝันลงในสมุดบันทึก เลยคิดไปว่าเราตื่นแล้ว
How to properly do the reality tests if me don't feel so much (strong) emotions during the entire day? And also when the emotions/feelings which most appear in my dreams don't appear during the waking day?
This video may be of help, if you haven't seen it yet: ua-cam.com/video/VN9ATfqBAdY/v-deo.html
But the trick is to catch yourself when you move from clear thinking into autopilot.
Sir i always have flase awekenings folowed by real aweakings help😢
How we can contact you directly?
You would like PDFs about the Tibetan Yoga of Dreams, or prefer to buy the physical original books?
I don't support any kind of book piracy - it's direct theft from the author (which would be very un Buddhist!). I own every book ever written on lucid dreaming, including all the Tibetan (and other) religious texts. As a professional sleep and dream researcher, it's my job to make sure I an well informed. But my website (link in channel description) has a contact form.
@@DanielLoveOrgI previously think that you don't have the books about the Tibetan yoga. I would like a video about the difference of the approach of the eastern and western techniques for lucid dreaming. Also you say that to become lucid in dreams we must pay attention to what distracts us in the dreams, and the Tibetan yoga teaches that to become lucid in the dream we must have mindfulness in waking life, and this led me to think how each technique can relate to each other
i say "if i dream tonight, i will see that im dreaming"
Yep, that would have the same issues
What do you think about lucid dreaming pills?
Here's a whole video on exactly that :) ua-cam.com/video/OeAbs_aDlt8/v-deo.html

How many times did Daniel say 'do a reality test' before you paused the video and did one? Hmmmm?
Now THIS is the right way to be thinking, spot on Aeowyn!
@@DanielLoveOrg😬
@LucidDreamPortal can u do a wbtb technique video please

@@c.draumrwell done C! I confess it wasn't til he said it the 3rd time that I reacted, some days I'm better than others 😊
Sir I want to know 1 more thing please.lucid dream everyday or what is the avarge no. Of lucid dreams in a week for you? Please reply
Number 4 will answer your question: www.thelucidguide.com/post/lucid-dreaming-frequently-asked-questions
Yes 🤩thank you very much
i say "i'm lucid dreaming"
I'd recommend something similar to what's mentioned at the end of the video
@@DanielLoveOrg yeah, i'm going to try
I rather to repeat until i drift asleep
Ok no
I just wanted to lucid Dream for fun
I love you Danial . Please come in my dream tonight. 😘.
One thing I say to everyone: If you ever meet me, the very first thing I'll ask is "Are you dreaming right now?". If I don't ask this, you're definitely dreaming.
(oh and heads-up, it's really lovely to be appreciated for my work - but please keep messages appropriate and respectful)
What up
this technique never worked for me honestly
Well yes, as the video explains - it absolutely shouldn't work as it is commonly shared (generally by the lucid nitwits out there on the internet)
@@DanielLoveOrg yea im someone who just started a month ago this never worked and every other method requires waking up at like 5 or earlier.
