Lucid Dreaming
Lay down and go to sleep. This works best if you are extremely
tired. Lay on your back with your arms at your side and your eyes
closed. STAY PERFECTLY STILL. You must stay awake. Your brain
will send signals to your body to see if you are ready to sleep.
These signals include: getting an itch, changing your body
position, wanting to blink or move your eyeballs (remember your
eyes should be closed). YOU MUST IGNORE ALL OF THESE IMPULSES.
After about 20-30 minutes, you will feel a weight on your chest;
you may even hear weird noises. You are now in sleep Paralasis.
If you open your eyes you will begin to hallucinate (dream with
your eyes open), and you will not be able to move your body. Your
body is now completely asleep. Now that you are aware you are
dreaming, you can shut your eyes and begin to dream instantly.
You will be fully aware you are dreaming and can now, with some
practice, control your dreams.
I really want to try this but
I'm afraid that, if this actually works, I'll hallucinate
something scary and won't be able to move or
speak.
