Soul Based Life: Lucid Dreaming - The Doorway of Our Consciousness

Hello Beautiful Souls,

I wanted to put this post together as a resource for the art of Lucid Dreaming. Lucid Dreaming is one of the most powerful ways we have in this incarnation, to break beyond the veils and transcend the illusions of this reality. And because of this, it is one of the tools that I love to share with others.

The main reason for this is because, when you wake in in the dream, it becomes easier to experience the concept of "All is Mind". In the dream, your mind, your consciousness, is creating your experience, therefore, what you can do in dreams, transcends all physical limitations.

In a dream you can fly, you can breathe underwater, you can change the dream, you can transform things, rewind time.... anything your mind can imagine, you can do.

One of the techniques that is considered more advanced in lucid dreaming, is to walk through a wall. It really shows us how much we have bought into the illusion of the material world, and even in a dream the mind can get tripped up on this one thing.

But when we can break free, our imagination is limitless!

This is why I personally feel this is one of the most powerful tools we can utilize in our lifetime, as a way to expand our consciousness and break free from any constructs on our mental body. And why I share this as a practice and a tool.

Beginning to learn why we do the things we do, or feel stuck by the things that seem to hold us back is important. Our perceptions are the filter in which we see the world. How I experience this world will always be different than the way you are experiencing it.

Our perceptions are everything, and our perceptions are the result of the wiring and programming of our belief systems, our cellular memories, our ancestral debt, possible implants, and the synthetic telepathy or programing we are ingesting.

Every single person on this planet is walking around in their very own world!

And this brings us to one of the most powerful quotes... if you want to change something, change your mind.

It can be difficult at first to break away from the mainstream of group consciousness. One of the most challenging things to do, is having the courage to think different than our family. This can feel like loosing oneself or even feeling abandoned or alone.

But there comes a moment in our life when we get nudged to find our deeper truth. And one of the best ways to do this, is to question everything. Even the nature of the "physical" world around us.

This brings us to a broader understanding of all of the sayings we hear about "Waking Up".

The whole idea of Enlightenment, Awakening, Waking Up, Expanding Our Consciousness, etc...this is all different ways of saying BECOMING LUCID IN THE DREAM.

Lucid dreaming is something that we all naturally have the ability to do. In fact, this is something that commonly happens in children under the age of 16. Most of us just didn't know what to call it at the time, or that it was even a big deal. So if you are here now thinking, "I don't dream" or have a hard time remembering your dreams, it is important to know, we can train ourselves to become lucid again.

Tapping into the power of our natural states of mind....

Our mind is like the waves on the ocean. Every day we are constantly moving in and out of different states of mind. And at night, we now also know that our sleep has waves and patterns. So when you can learn these waves, you can start to train yourself on how to ride the REM states right into being Lucid!

Mindfulness is an incredible tool for starting to observe our thoughts, and to be more aware of what we are thinking. I am not going to go into why that is so important in this post, but it all has to do with the fact that our thoughts create our reality. So knowing what we are thinking is a vital step in starting to create the life we want to create.

Even though we don't realize it,

we live most of our life

in the hypnotic state of mind.

Daydreaming has LOTS of forms!

Dream realms are real! What happens in a dream directly effects your waking reality. When we conquer a fear in the Lucid Dream, it becomes conquered in our waking life. One of my favorite ways that therapists are utilizing Lucid Dreaming with people now, is for PTSD. Lucid Dreaming is a teachable art, and when a person with PTSD finally becomes lucid in a dream, they can stand up to the panic and fear in the dream, and in one dream, the PTSD is going away.

Change your mind...Change your life!

I am not going to go into all the mechanics or techniques on when or how to Lucid Dream. Instead, I want to share with you some of my favorite resources so you can take this journey from your own perspective. There are endless things you can do in the Lucid dream state, and what jumps out to you as exciting will be the perfect place for you to start.
