A Field Guide to Lucid Dreaming
Author: Dylan Tuccillo
Publisher: Workman Publishing
ISBN: 0761177396
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
Imagine being able to fly. Walk through walls. Shape-shift. Breathe underwater. Conjure loved ones—or total strangers—out of thin air. Imagine experiencing your nighttime dreams with the same awareness you possess right now—fully functioning memory, imagination, and self-awareness. Imagine being able to use this power to be more creative, solve problems, and discover a deep sense of well-being. This is lucid dreaming—the ability to know you are dreaming while you are in a dream, and then consciously explore and change the elements of the dream. A Field Guide to Lucid Dreaming, with its evocative retro illustrations, shows exactly how to do it. Written by three avid, experienced lucid dreamers, this manual for the dream world takes the reader from step one—learning how to reconnect with his or her dreams— through the myriad possibilities of what can happen once the dreamer is lucid and an accomplished oneironaut (a word that comes from the Greek oneira, meaning dreams, and nautis, meaning sailor). Readers will learn about the powerful REM sleep stage—a window into lucid dreams. Improve dream recall by keeping a journal. The importance of reality checks, such as “The Finger”—during the day, try to pass your finger through your palm; then, when you actually do it successfully, you’ll know that you’re dreaming. And once you become lucid, how to make the most of it. Every time you dream, you are washing up on the shores of your own inner landscape. Learn to explore a strange and thrilling world with A Field Guide to Lucid Dreaming.

When Brains Dream: Understanding the Science and Mystery of Our Dreaming Minds
Author: Antonio Zadra
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 1324002840
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
"A truly comprehensive, scientifically rigorous and utterly fascinating account of when, how, and why we dream. Put simply, When Brains Dream is the essential guide to dreaming." —Matthew Walker, author of Why We Sleep Questions on the origins and meaning of dreams are as old as humankind, and as confounding and exciting today as when nineteenth-century scientists first attempted to unravel them. Why do we dream? Do dreams hold psychological meaning or are they merely the reflection of random brain activity? What purpose do dreams serve? When Brains Dream addresses these core questions about dreams while illuminating the most up-to-date science in the field. Written by two world-renowned sleep and dream researchers, it debunks common myths that we only dream in REM sleep, for example—while acknowledging the mysteries that persist around both the science and experience of dreaming. Antonio Zadra and Robert Stickgold bring together state-of-the-art neuroscientific ideas and findings to propose a new and innovative model of dream function called NEXTUP—Network Exploration to Understand Possibilities. By detailing this model’s workings, they help readers understand key features of several types of dreams, from prophetic dreams to nightmares and lucid dreams. When Brains Dream reveals recent discoveries about the sleeping brain and the many ways in which dreams are psychologically, and neurologically, meaningful experiences; explores a host of dream-related disorders; and explains how dreams can facilitate creativity and be a source of personal insight. Making an eloquent and engaging case for why the human brain needs to dream, When Brains Dream offers compelling answers to age-old questions about the mysteries of sleep.

5 Steps To Lucid Dreaming

ISBN:
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 118
Book Description
*From The Creator/Founder Of ‘HowToLucid.com’ & The YouTube Channel ‘Lucid Dreaming Experience’ With 141K Subscribers* Revised version: I've updated this ebook in 2020-2021 to share the most effective and useful lucid dreaming techniques out there. This is a great starting point for learning the basics, and having your FIRST lucid dream as soon as possible. EXPERIENCE THE IMPOSSIBLE - Experience things you never thought you could before, such as flying across the sky, and soaring like an eagle. It will all feel very real. INCREASE YOUR CONFIDENCE - After lucid dreaming for a few weeks, your self confidence will skyrocket. You'll feel like you can do anything! SLEEP BETTER - By lucid dreaming you can actually have a much better nights sleep! You'll feel much more refreshed and start each day with more energy, awareness and love. ADD HOURS TO YOUR LIFE - Think about it, we're asleep for over a third of our lives. Imagine if you could not only get those hours back, but experience your wildest fantasies in those lost 'extra' hours, every night. The memories will feel vivid, real, and POWERFUL. Want to be able to control your dreams while you sleep? Lucid Dreaming is the ability to control your dreams and become 'self aware' or 'conscious' in them. This allows you to do impossible things while you sleep, and be completely aware you're doing them. Most lucid dreaming books are either a load of nonsense, or they're so padded that the information is just repeated 5 times over! This one is CONCISE, and USEFUL. ONLY teaching what works, based on my years of experience, research and curation of other master lucid dreamers experience and research. Who am I? I'm Stefan, founder of HowToLucid, and I've been a lucid dreamer for years now. I've learned from many other gurus, researchers, and philosophers about this incredible ability. I've taught millions of people all around the world, to control their dreams, and grown my YouTube channel (where I answer peoples questions about lucid dreaming) to over 141,000 subscribers. We now have over 21,000 Instagram followers. I’m not saying this to brag, but instead to say, I wouldn't have that many, if I didn't know what I was talking about. For example, when the brain 'thinks' about doing something or dreams about it, the SAME neural circuits fire as when the person is ACTUALLY doing it.. This means that by practicing a skill in a Lucid Dream, such as the guitar or driving a car, you can actually get REAL life results.. This beginners guide teaches easy to understand powerful lucid dreaming techniques and principles. There's no 'fluff' and time wasting. Just what WORKS. This will save you time, because you'll only be learning what you need to know. Here are just a FEW of the things you can do with Lucid Dreaming - 1. Fly and teleport yourself to other planets 2. Remove fears from your life and stop having nightmares so you can sleep better and wake up feeling refreshed 3. Experience anything you can imagine, and no this is not an exaggeration 4. See the answers to problems that were otherwise 'impossible' 5. Meet up with lost loved ones again in your dreams so you can finally say goodbye properly, or just have a nice chat with them! 6. Tasting beautiful 'dream food' which tastes better than real food so you'll wake up with beautiful memories of how it tasted 7. Have lucid dream SEX that feels better than REAL sex in some cases so you can have a crazy night with your fantasy girl or guy 8. Simulating ANY experience you can possibly imagine, Skydiving, Superhuman strength, super powers, etc... 9. Exploring limitless new worlds and environments so you can get inspired and have fresh ideas 10. Playing around with 'zero gravity' so you can see how it feels to be weightless 11. Much, Much more. Get this beginners guide to lucid dreaming now, and start doing the IMPOSSIBLE in your dreams within 30 days or less. I’m not sure how much longer I’ll keep this available at this low price, as this is very effective and concise information. Learn more about HowToLucid at https://howtolucid.com/about

Mind Hacks

Publisher: "O'Reilly Media, Inc."
ISBN: 144939096X
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 398
Book Description
The brain is a fearsomely complex information-processing environment--one that often eludes our ability to understand it. At any given time, the brain is collecting, filtering, and analyzing information and, in response, performing countless intricate processes, some of which are automatic, some voluntary, some conscious, and some unconscious.Cognitive neuroscience is one of the ways we have to understand the workings of our minds. It's the study of the brain biology behind our mental functions: a collection of methods--like brain scanning and computational modeling--combined with a way of looking at psychological phenomena and discovering where, why, and how the brain makes them happen.Want to know more? Mind Hacks is a collection of probes into the moment-by-moment works of the brain. Using cognitive neuroscience, these experiments, tricks, and tips related to vision, motor skills, attention, cognition, subliminal perception, and more throw light on how the human brain works. Each hack examines specific operations of the brain. By seeing how the brain responds, we pick up clues about the architecture and design of the brain, learning a little bit more about how the brain is put together.Mind Hacks begins your exploration of the mind with a look inside the brain itself, using hacks such as "Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation: Turn On and Off Bits of the Brain" and "Tour the Cortex and the Four Lobes." Also among the 100 hacks in this book, you'll find: Release Eye Fixations for Faster Reactions See Movement When All is Still Feel the Presence and Loss of Attention Detect Sounds on the Margins of Certainty Mold Your Body Schema Test Your Handedness See a Person in Moving Lights Make Events Understandable as Cause-and-Effect Boost Memory by Using Context Understand Detail and the Limits of Attention Steven Johnson, author of "Mind Wide Open" writes in his foreword to the book, "These hacks amaze because they reveal the brain's hidden logic; they shed light on the cheats and shortcuts and latent assumptions our brains make about the world." If you want to know more about what's going on in your head, then Mind Hacks is the key--let yourself play with the interface between you and the world.

Dreams and How to Guide Them
Author: Marquis d'Hervey de Saint-Denys
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 1913689417
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
The first unabridged English translation of a classic work on dreams by an author regarded as the father of lucid dreaming. First published anonymously in 1867, Dreams and How to Guide Them is the lost classic of lucid dreaming—that is, the art of becoming aware that one is dreaming and then continuing to dream, whether to fly, have erotic encounters, or just explore the dream world further. It has long been a rare and legendary work. Freud knew of it, but never managed to find a copy, and surrealist André Breton begins his own book The Communicating Vessels by discussing it This is the first complete English translation—there was a heavily abridged edition in 1982, much-loved and also rare—and it is now published to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the birth of Hervey de Saint-Denys. This new edition is edited and introduced by Phil Baker, who traces the author’s life and connects his work with Tibetan Buddhist dream practices, and surrealism, as well as to more recent research in lucid dreaming.
