What are lucid dreams and what are they for?

Hello dear readers! The human brain is not able to distinguish which memories are invented and which are real, real. Therefore, it reacts to them in a completely similar way.

That is, we can safely say that at night, when we sleep, processes still occur that have a huge impact not only on our health, but also on life in general.

And today we will talk about what lucid dreams are for. After all, it turns out that with their help we can influence our present and future.

What can be done?

That is, to deal with the situation that arose in the past and takes away resources from the body for a long time, even if the person is not aware of it. After all, it is important for the psyche to complete any business, it will not put up with such a “suspended state” and will constantly look for ways and methods to put an end to it.

So, this can be done with the help of lucid dreams. For example, it is not always possible to say something to a close, important person. Suppose, because he is no longer alive. But guilt, anger or love for him is still alive. Here it was not possible to explain it to him, you can try to do it mentally, but it does not always work out to really speak out.

In a dream, there are no restrictions, there you can watch his reaction, hear what he answers, and so on. Meet you eventually.

In general, when a situation causes you intense feelings, misunderstanding — you can finally let it go, deal with it, or at least learn not to run away, ignore difficulties, but “face them”.

Boost self esteem

Faced in reality with our own limitations and not having the resources to overcome them, our self-esteem gradually decreases. In a dream, as already mentioned, nothing is impossible.

To the extent that, if desired, we can fly, raise the ship with one left or jump higher than a nine-story building. And by performing these actions consciously, you will also feel your own significance, having appropriated new skills, even if they do not quite coincide with reality.

And the very understanding that “I control not only my life, but also my dreams” gives more self-confidence.

In addition, we can work out some situation, for example, talk with the manager about a pay increase. In real life, even the thought of it can cause panic and confusion. Therefore, not every one of us is able to decide on this, not having practice and internal resources for such a difficult conversation.

What are lucid dreams and what are they for?

Deal with fears

What frightens us takes away a lot of energy, especially in cases when we try to ignore our fear, to run away from it.

But by mastering the techniques of lucid dreaming, you can control it, while depriving it of power over your consciousness. Let’s say you’ve been haunted by some monster for a long time, which you drive away in your thoughts. Even if it is a dog bitten in childhood, because of which you are wary of all animals that can be quite aggressive and cause damage to health.

At night, it may turn out that you are not afraid to look at it, because you control it. And the consequences may not be so dire and serious if something goes wrong. In the end, you will not only be able to look into her eyes, but also to talk. Remember, nothing is impossible, right?

In general, lucid dreaming is a safe place to practice before trying anything in reality.

Bring the body into tone

If you play sports in your sleep, your brain will send signals to the muscle system, as if you really went to the gym in reality.

It is clear that colossal results cannot be achieved by pumping up biceps and abs, doing nothing else but imagining training. But to keep them in good shape will come out, which will allow you to quickly make your body embossed and elastic.

The main thing is to lead a healthy and active lifestyle, learn more about this here.

By the way, for people with disabilities who for some reason cannot walk, swim, run, and generally get out of bed, this is a chance to feel freedom of movement. That is, to know, or to return to that, so important, but lost state.

Completion

And finally, I would like to note that during a lucid dream, the body recovers faster. Therefore, in the morning you will feel alert and full of energy. It was as if he was able to rest just as long as he needed.

And by the way, work on yourself should be comprehensive, so I want to bring to your attention an article about affirmations. Find out what they are and how they help by clicking here.
