The ending gave me chills. Whenever I tell people in my dream that I’m dreaming they either tell me I’m not or brush it off like I’m being silly or something.
I asked my son in a dream , I asked him if this is a dream and he said yeah dude. I woke up and I was still in a dream when I forced my self to wake up
Very interesting, there's so much speculation and misinformation about lucid dreaming out there, specially here on youtube, it's nice to see an actual researcher in the field talking about the subject.
Especially in places like tiktok where it thrives and goes viral. I find allot of this misinformation comes from memes as well. So many people think dreams only last a few seconds
I lucid dream every time i sleep, in it i can taste food, smell, feel touch, fly, manipulate matter, talk to past loved ones, its a very spectacular experience
Me too! I just started lucid dreaming a few months ago, and once I started trying to lucid dream, I have had a lucid dream almost every day! I almost always fly in them! And the more I lucid dream, the better I get at it making my dreams last longer. It’s amazing!
All it took was my husband's friend saying he could control his dreams and I haven't had a nightmare since ❤ I use to have nightmares so much. I haven't had one in months 😊
That’s fascinating! I’m a writer and I’ve been obsessed with dreams since I was a young child and have kept a dream journal for decades with thousands of dreams written down. Lately I am working on a screenplay about a guy boy who discovers how to lucid dream. I’ve had hundreds of lucid dreams in my life and even 1 astral projection. I’m wondering if you’d be open to potentially being interviewed or simply having a short discussion about your lucid dreaming experiences?
8:51 is on point. Reading becomes more and more difficult. Whenever I realize I'm dreaming I wake up. Realization that things aren't normal has helped end certain dreams, truly feel like I work through the issues I come across in them. However I have yet to fly, but I can manipulate objects.
Lucid dreaming is the most underrated skill in the world and everyone should be practicing it. Not only is it really fun but also euphoric and often times feels as real as real life. There's also a practical side as well. The list of benefits includes: Probablem solving More creativity Higher self awareness Getting better at other skills Getting rid of recurring nightmares Facing fears It can be used gor pretty much anything in life. You can also have some of the best experiences in your life. Trust me it's worth it
Thanks for the vid! I lucid dream every single night and wake up exhausted every day! I live a double life… sometimes working at a 2nd job and feel like I’m in the dream for days on end sometimes. I can control everything in the dream and sometimes I go back to these other lives and versions of myself, picking up where I left off. It’s a blessing and a curse as like I said, I am exhausted from it and rarely have a restful nights sleep! 😂
That's amazing! Did you do anything to train yourself to get to this point in lucid dreaming mastery or did it all just happen naturally? Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
I find that it normally happens when I wake up and then fall back into a sleep If I focus the dream can turn lucid real quick I find that if you fall asleep thinking about what you want to dream of and set an intention it does work X
My number one tip for getting started lucid dreaming, is based off of expectation you talk about. I tell myself “I’m dreaming so it’s time to go home” and turn around and when I am dreaming I get a path to walk down and it lets me know I’m dreaming. Obviously I’m usually just being dramatic.
I consider myself a professional lucid dreamer as Ive started lucid dreaming at 4yrs old. For for first few times thru the years, it would wake me up. But after studying, i learned to stay asleep. Ive flown into the sky and saw the earth below and chose where to go. Lately i prefer the extremely vivid dream worlds i have. I have 3 reacuring dream worlds. I also continue where i left off, especially if that world was the one i came from the night before I value the time i spend there. Vs spending 1/3 of my life being just sleeping
Ive had numerous sleep paralysis episodes where ID be so paranoid to fall asleep because I knew it was going to happen. And id be there unable to talk to really know if i was breathing. But my eyes were open. This began after rehab from alcoholism. The medication, which im still on, gave me extreme manic episodes and going to sleep at night was hard. So sleep paralysis was fun After getting used to the medications i began having my lucid dreams again or by choice id go to bed in a manner that would allow me to not be quite lucid. But able to enjoy and remember everything that happened I dont need to write my dreams down. Ill remember them for days weeks or years. Depends on how important they were But when i lucid dream i prefer casting magic and flying high up and going somewhere else. Somewhere amazing
In my dreams i know i may or may not be able to fly. I tell myself to just take a deep breath. I may have instances where i jump and fall like a child wearing a cape. Other times I go.
@@roccosage8508 sleep paralysis, Altho not at all fun at first. Achieved thru forcing your mind to stay awake. Your body will fall asleep. Trying to sleep through noise can also help you realize youre asleep. Honestly once youve lucid dreamt once it shouldnt be hard to have happen again. But maybe thats because i been doing it so long? I dont exactly understand it but i am good at it without the above things Ssris can help achieve lucid dreams. I dream way more vibrant and lucid on my prescriptions ID avoid alcohol.
@@kaydeelockeheart8028 this is so helpful I really appreciate you taking the time to reply. Curious if you ever tried staying in the lucid dream. Or do you not have control over that? I often wonder why lucid dreamers never talk about willing themselves to stay in the dreamscape.
I’ve had lucid dreams severally but they are brief and when I wake I find it frustratingly difficult or impossible to go back to sleep to continue from where I left off.. the flying dreams are my favorite but most elusive and whenever I start trying to make sense of the flight I see myself back on land… on memory, I remember the important/most profound dreams.. I enjoy my dreams, they give me this good feeling just remembering them, it feels so great and I can’t understand why it feels so great to remember a dream, it’s feels way better than just remembering good memories and it is this “mysterious” good feeling I’ve found most fascinating lately
@@roccosage8508 I felt like it was spontaneous, but I did think about lucid dreaming before I went to sleep. Not too much, but when I had the dream I just was able to realize that I was dreaming, then I could control it. I’m sure it had to do with me thinking about it a lot the day before and day of.
I can totally control my dreams 😅is very strange but I still remember after I wake up what I did Sometimes is so real that I can smell, taste , and touch everything
@@Badass_Brains 80% of the times sure i do and is dangerous because there was a time I just wanted to sleep to do whatever I wanted in my dreams ..

The brain simulates psychosis during dreaming. As a result, psychosis is theorised by many researchers to be a disorder of consciousness. Therefore, under this theory, your brain is arguably more adept at remaining in reality than the average person!
Lucid dreams is like an everyday thing for me. Sometimes I feel like I'm in place where I'm not suppose to be. Someone even told me in my Lucid dream "You not suppose to be here".... I woke up.
I’ve had one similar. My passed grandma was like um… what are you doing here. But now some characters welcome me and others know I dont belong. They stare at me, one took my picture once, or they chase me til I wake up
I just got my first lucid dream today. Everything felt normal until I realized I'm at school when I'm suppose to have 2 months of holiday and that the school was located in a small island that gave me hawaii vibe for some reason. It was just at the start of the dream that I myself told me that I was dreaming and literally told myself again that "Omg I'm in a lucid dream" as if I can fully control myself and that I felt like I can for once control my own consciousness in a dream compare to my other non-lucid dream. At the exact moment in the dream I felt so powerful and had multiple thought about how the dream can end. It really felt so different compare to normal dream as it felt like you are in an alternate world but the catch is that you can actually control yourself and do what you want.
Don't let negative or scary thoughts overtake the dream. 99/100 times it happens because you expect it to or think something bad will happen. There's this misconception going around lately not to tell people that you're in a dream but truth is they only react how tou expect them to. With this idea going around it influences more dreams. I remember back when smile dog was a thing and I believed it, he showed up in my dream ine night. I think it's fun to tell characters you're in a dream or that they're in a dream becasue the reactions are almost always funny
If I try to tell another person that I am dreaming in my dream, the dream is trying to kick me out or if I am really excited about that I know, the dream will try kick me out. If I get lucid dream, I can do what ever I want.
I've been experiencing these too for quite sometime and I'm so happy to know that there more people experiencing these too.....if anyone's willing to share more were can reach each other and I got more to share please
I had a lucid dream on a new source of energy. In the lucid dream was shown a crucible with several materials. I could identify most of the materials, as I had a career in Analytical Chemistry. In the lucid dream, I asked “What is the crux for the experiment.”, and Voice said “Bismuth.”, I questioned the element, as I had thought that in quite inert. A neon sign with pink lettering ‘BISMUTH”. I researched Bismuth for several years and came across a Nobel piece winner phenomenon on synthetic materials(man made) that will produce energy, when an electromagnetic light is absorbed and refracted by a thin film of these these materials. This material is Bismuth ferrite the will produce an ultraviolet radiation,from a weak infrared wave. This reaction is at the quantum level. I asked AI if this was viable and it responded that it was and that I should write a scientific proposal to a university.
I have lucid dreams almost every night. I can realize I'm awake, and control myself. I'm looking to advance and manipulate surroundings and control others in my dreams. I had been writing dream journals for years, it got to a point where I would always remember them and didnt need to write them anymore. After a traumatic experience, i cant remember them as well and have resorted to recording them in journals again. Help.
For a while now I have been lucid dreaming , at first getting aware of that i was actually dreaming was biggest issue , cause i always activated by jumping off my partners block balcony either i softly landed or got carried away flying i knew this was it .But always it was hard deal to handle whether take the chance this is not real , guite a big at stake jeoparding my health:) later on once i become a bit calmer i noticed that in my dreams my hands always look odd when i bring them up over my face to look at them closer , always deformed in some kind of way , like 4 fingers all equal , or deformed , always worked .Then with relief and enormous fascination ( once i checked them ) could tell to myself , here we go man , try to handle this LD as long as you can and enjoy .So now my only sorrow is to make it last longer but so far could not find any solution .Best rgds to all LDreamers .
Ive been trying to find studies about lucid dreaming. I am able to fly, make things happen or appear, have superpowers at will like telekinesis or manipulating elements. I have even managed to manipulate the terrain like move the ground around and create new ground. I haven't found any other cases like this and would really like to take part in a lucid dream study
I also have had vivid dreams every night that feel no different physically than real life, I can feel pain but I never die. I also lucid dream almost every night, it's not always extremely control, but I always have some sort of control. Usually if I'm not lucid dreaming and things get too intense or scary I'll take control of my dream to get out of w.e scenario I'm in

I have Lucid dreams since i was a kid and nearly i am always in Lucid dreams and i know i am in a dream. Plus i tried to woke up from my dream once a time, and i did it. So What it means ? Is it special or is it a negative stuff ?
I'm not sure if this is for everyone, but for me I get nightmares when my body is cold while sleeping. When I have nightmares, it's easier for me to get into a lucid dream because you effectively have to be conscious while sleeping. As soon as you realise you are sleeping then bam, you are lucid dreaming. Just watch out, when using the nightmare route one of 3 things can happen: 1) The nightmare is too strong and gets amplified when you're slightly more conscious, but too scared to be aware that you are dreaming. 2) You accidentally become too conscious and wake up before your body. So basically you'll experience sleep paralysis. 3) You find the perfect balance between dreaming and consciousness. During lucid dreaming the subconscious mind tries to create obstacles based on your conscious thoughts. My dreams tend to be more on the unrealistic side. For example, fighting 20-50 waking indestructible stone golems that was sleeping on grassy hills. While some other character told me to not go to those hills, since it was a forbidden zone. The only way out was to put the golems back to sleep, but this time a deeper sleep then they had before. Since I was a kid I slowly figured out how to lucid dream, I would then remember my dreams and map out my dream world and mark off all the worst and best places. I mostly use the induced nightmare route, however sometimes I take the conventional route and catch myself dreaming now and then when I don't have nightmares. Unfortunately I'm very numb to nightmares these days. Will see if I can find another route to lucid dreaming instead of the nightmare route.
@@charvivashisht7629 I've experienced this too and have used it to actively get nightmares. I believe by being cold does 2 things: 1) It keeps you uncomfortable enough to not experience a deep sleep. This would give you a better chance to dream, since you need to be slightly concious to experience and remember a dream. 2) I think the cold also simulates that you are outside and possibly in danger, this would then push you to get a nightmare. Obviously with extreme temperature on either side you likely won't be able to sleep, but I also believe each person has their own temperature thresholds for sleeping.
I think you’re confused on how to make objects appear in your dreams. Not only can you make objects or people appear, but you can have abilities lol, I used to fly, crate things like fast cars or games out of thin air and all kinds of stuff but it only works IF you BELIEVE IT WILL. I tried to fly so many times before I could actually do it because I had doubt that I would stay in the air. I would run and jump to fly but I’d only go like 7ft off the ground then I would gently fall to the ground and slightly hover over the ground and usually just put my feet back on the ground to stand up, once I felt I didn’t believe enough I made sure to next time and sure enough, I flew very high above my town and was looking all around having a great time. I know what it’s like to fly.
@Idk__ You're right, perhaps it's genetics or how my mind works. It can be exhausting at times, specially when you're having a nightmare and you know that it is a dream and despite telling yourself to wake up or to leave the scene it takes a while. On the other hand, it can be addicting when you're having good dreams and you manage to "manipulate" the events but then you wake up - I often go back to sleep to see if I can "go back" hahaha.
While there is no evidence that I know of pointing to levels of imagination as a key factor in lucid vs non-lucid dreamers,, genetics may play a role as suggested by others here. One study showed that frequent lucid dreamers (or people reporting dream content related to dream lucidity) have increased gray matter volume in the frontopolar cortex (see Filevich, Dresler, Brick, & Kuhn, 2015) which has been linked to metacognitive processes -- the kind of higher-level thinking and self-awareness often seen in lucid dreams. Not sure if genes or development or a combo of both favours this, but such brain variations appear to be one factor in play. To what extent you can then use and maintain this self-awareness as your dream unfolds is probably a skill that develops with experience, with frequent or life-long lucid dreamers holding an edge.
Could be called "lower lucid dreaming" or "lucid dreaming in the lower regions." Not at all like higher lucid dreaming, Lucid dreaming with actual worthy goals besides just aimlessly wandering about trying to "control" things. I guess because the goals are mundane and somewhat creepy. There is much more and much better guidance about it.
Yo i was laying down earlier and was falling asleep like half awake and half asleep and i felt myself essentially falling asleep and there was an intense ringing in my ears, and i felt like my body was “settling” and i couldnt move..like i was stuck ..& it scared me so bad thinking it was a health issue or something that i tried to call out to my girl and i couldnt then i finally jolted myself awake and could move again it fuckin creeped me out and now im here ..somebody help me man im legit afraid to fall asleep rn
It sounds like you experienced an episode of sleep paralysis. I've had that a lot, it's VERY scary! Basically, your brain is waking up but your body is still paralyzed (which it naturally does during sleep/dreaming so that you don't act out your dreams) -- so you can't move or speak. The feeling is usually one of terror. It's awful. I went through a period of being terrified to sleep because of this, when I had no idea what sleep paralysis was! Eventually I learned to recognize while having these terrors that I was just waking up, and that it would be over soon. The lucid dreaming practices Antonio teaches in this video (reality checks, etc.) were exactly how I accomplished that. So, I hope it was a freak occurrence for you, but if it happens more, use these lucid dreaming tips and it could help you. It worked for me! Wishing you all the best.
P.S. I've also often had many experiences of auditory events during sleep paralysis (like your ringing in the ears). "Auditory hallucinations" also seem to be a common experience with sleep paralysis.
@@SoundsLikeADream_cc thank you ive experienced this before but the last time it happend i was able to see myself laying on my couch sort of like i was “behind myself” watching myself sleep same thing happened snd it scared me then but its been a few years it always scared me when it happens its very intense and hard to describe

For a while now I have been lucid dreaming , at first getting aware of that i was actually dreaming was biggest issue , cause i always activated by jumping off my partners block balcony either i softly landed or got carried away flying i knew this was it .But always it was hard deal to handle whether take the chance this is not real , guite a big at stake jeoparding my health:) later on once i become a bit calmer i noticed that in my dreams my hands always look odd when i bring them up over my face to look at them closer , always deformed in some kind of way , like 4 fingers all equal , or deformed , always worked .Then with relief and enormous fascination ( once i checked them ) could tell to myself , here we go man , try to handle this LD as long as you can and enjoy .So now my only sorrow is to make it last longer but so far could not find any solution .Best rgds to all LDreamers .
It is said one can’t read in the dream. Today I actually read a sign post in the dream. “Shekpe” I stood there wondering why it was spelt that way
You must be a very good storyteller
Ive been trying to find studies about lucid dreaming. I am able to fly, make things happen or appear, have superpowers at will like telekinesis or manipulating elements. I have even managed to manipulate the terrain like move the ground around and create new ground. I haven't found any other cases like this and would really like to take part in a lucid dream study
I also have had vivid dreams every night that feel no different physically than real life, I can feel pain but I never die. I also lucid dream almost every night, it's not always extremely control, but I always have some sort of control. Usually if I'm not lucid dreaming and things get too intense or scary I'll take control of my dream to get out of w.e scenario I'm in
@@Jonathan-kb3zl The brain simulates psychosis during dreaming. Some researchers therefore theorise that psychosis is a disorder of consciousness. Therefore, under this theory, your brain is arguably more adept at remaining in reality than the average person if you are able to lucid dream fairly easily!
About the ending. If he says it's not a dream, yet you are there and he sees you only in his dreams, then it is a dream.
That ending.
I have Lucid dreams since i was a kid and nearly i am always in Lucid dreams and i know i am in a dream. Plus i tried to woke up from my dream once a time, and i did it. So What it means ? Is it special or is it a negative stuff ?
I dont get the ending why would u disappear if he wakes up ? Same dream nah?
I have them occasionally. The ones with women I don't want to wake up. It's better than life but sadly they end.
Antonio.. have you read the book "The Dreamakers" by Corriere and Hart?
No I haven't. I did, however, publish a novel blending sleep science with dream mythology called "The DreamKeepers"
I'm not sure if this is for everyone, but for me I get nightmares when my body is cold while sleeping.
When I have nightmares, it's easier for me to get into a lucid dream because you effectively have to be conscious while sleeping. As soon as you realise you are sleeping then bam, you are lucid dreaming.
Just watch out, when using the nightmare route one of 3 things can happen:
1) The nightmare is too strong and gets amplified when you're slightly more conscious, but too scared to be aware that you are dreaming.
2) You accidentally become too conscious and wake up before your body. So basically you'll experience sleep paralysis.
3) You find the perfect balance between dreaming and consciousness.
During lucid dreaming the subconscious mind tries to create obstacles based on your conscious thoughts.
My dreams tend to be more on the unrealistic side. For example, fighting 20-50 waking indestructible stone golems that was sleeping on grassy hills. While some other character told me to not go to those hills, since it was a forbidden zone. The only way out was to put the golems back to sleep, but this time a deeper sleep then they had before.
Since I was a kid I slowly figured out how to lucid dream, I would then remember my dreams and map out my dream world and mark off all the worst and best places.
I mostly use the induced nightmare route, however sometimes I take the conventional route and catch myself dreaming now and then when I don't have nightmares.
Unfortunately I'm very numb to nightmares these days. Will see if I can find another route to lucid dreaming instead of the nightmare route.
I've noticed that when it's cold, there are more nightmares. What's your take?
@@charvivashisht7629 I've experienced this too and have used it to actively get nightmares.
I believe by being cold does 2 things:
1) It keeps you uncomfortable enough to not experience a deep sleep. This would give you a better chance to dream, since you need to be slightly concious to experience and remember a dream.
2) I think the cold also simulates that you are outside and possibly in danger, this would then push you to get a nightmare.
Obviously with extreme temperature on either side you likely won't be able to sleep, but I also believe each person has their own temperature thresholds for sleeping.
Are lucid dreamers still in demand by neurologists and scientists for paid research projects?
How does one become a dream scientist?
Study neuroscience and then get research experience in a sleep lab would be one route 😊
Mine usually end by me dying. And are almost impossible to describe
I think you’re confused on how to make objects appear in your dreams. Not only can you make objects or people appear, but you can have abilities lol, I used to fly, crate things like fast cars or games out of thin air and all kinds of stuff but it only works IF you BELIEVE IT WILL. I tried to fly so many times before I could actually do it because I had doubt that I would stay in the air. I would run and jump to fly but I’d only go like 7ft off the ground then I would gently fall to the ground and slightly hover over the ground and usually just put my feet back on the ground to stand up, once I felt I didn’t believe enough I made sure to next time and sure enough, I flew very high above my town and was looking all around having a great time. I know what it’s like to fly.
Now I don't want to lucid dream I already know I won't be able to control it
Apparently you can
Wait so if you are capable of moving your eyes whilst you are dreaming. Is that rare?
Like whilst lucid dreaming

I have lucid dreams almost every day, I've always assumed that it was a normal and it was due to my fertile imagination.
@Idk__ You're right, perhaps it's genetics or how my mind works. It can be exhausting at times, specially when you're having a nightmare and you know that it is a dream and despite telling yourself to wake up or to leave the scene it takes a while. On the other hand, it can be addicting when you're having good dreams and you manage to "manipulate" the events but then you wake up - I often go back to sleep to see if I can "go back" hahaha.
While there is no evidence that I know of pointing to levels of imagination as a key factor in lucid vs non-lucid dreamers,, genetics may play a role as suggested by others here. One study showed that frequent lucid dreamers (or people reporting dream content related to dream lucidity) have increased gray matter volume in the frontopolar cortex (see Filevich, Dresler, Brick, &
Kuhn, 2015) which has been linked to metacognitive processes -- the kind of higher-level thinking and self-awareness often seen in lucid dreams. Not sure if genes or development or a combo of both favours this, but such brain variations appear to be one factor in play. To what extent you can then use and maintain this self-awareness as your dream unfolds is probably a skill that develops with experience, with frequent or life-long lucid dreamers holding an edge.
Could be called "lower lucid dreaming" or "lucid dreaming in the lower regions." Not at all like higher lucid dreaming, Lucid dreaming with actual worthy goals besides just aimlessly wandering about trying to "control" things. I guess because the goals are mundane and somewhat creepy. There is much more and much better guidance about it.
12:00 god dam!!!😂😂
Yo i was laying down earlier and was falling asleep like half awake and half asleep and i felt myself essentially falling asleep and there was an intense ringing in my ears, and i felt like my body was “settling” and i couldnt move..like i was stuck ..& it scared me so bad thinking it was a health issue or something that i tried to call out to my girl and i couldnt then i finally jolted myself awake and could move again it fuckin creeped me out and now im here ..somebody help me man im legit afraid to fall asleep rn
It sounds like you experienced an episode of sleep paralysis. I've had that a lot, it's VERY scary! Basically, your brain is waking up but your body is still paralyzed (which it naturally does during sleep/dreaming so that you don't act out your dreams) -- so you can't move or speak. The feeling is usually one of terror. It's awful. I went through a period of being terrified to sleep because of this, when I had no idea what sleep paralysis was! Eventually I learned to recognize while having these terrors that I was just waking up, and that it would be over soon. The lucid dreaming practices Antonio teaches in this video (reality checks, etc.) were exactly how I accomplished that. So, I hope it was a freak occurrence for you, but if it happens more, use these lucid dreaming tips and it could help you. It worked for me! Wishing you all the best.
P.S. I've also often had many experiences of auditory events during sleep paralysis (like your ringing in the ears). "Auditory hallucinations" also seem to be a common experience with sleep paralysis.
@@SoundsLikeADream_cc thank you ive experienced this before but the last time it happend i was able to see myself laying on my couch sort of like i was “behind myself” watching myself sleep same thing happened snd it scared me then but its been a few years it always scared me when it happens its very intense and hard to describe
@@bosmanebeezy9788 check in with your doctor for a referral for a sleep study! I hope you find relief and well earned rest
It's sleep paralysis
..
why are you talking in such a strange way?
