lucid dream guru

ok so you know that movie inception? and how great it is and awesome and everything?

well i was stumbling today (basically the best thing ever if you're stuck on the computer all day like me) and i stumbled upon... drum roll please... the lucid dream guru!

now you may be thinking to yourself, "what is a lucid dream?" well it is your lucky day! a lucid dream is a dream where the person sleeping becomes conscious and aware that they are dreaming.

perfect for that inception stuff right?

so this site gives you 6 ways to become a lucid dreaming pro! 6! man they are way too generous.

and for your convenience i've decided to copy and paste the steps for one of these techniques! don't worry, "many first timers achieve their first lucid dream through this technique."



Step 1:
Early in the morning, find an ink pen. Doesn't matter what color, just any pen will do.

Step 2:
Take the pen and draw single tiny dots somewhere on your hands. For me, I like to ink a small dot on the palm of each hand or on the knuckle of each thumb.

Step 3:
Now that you have the tiny dots on your hand, as you go throughout your day, you will occasionally see them. When you see them, use it as a reminder to ask yourself if you are dreaming. Stop whatever it is you are doing and perform a reality check.

Step 4:
Look around your surrounding environment, sincerely [ok that is the hard part right there] ask yourself "Is this a dream?". Then find an object, sign, book, etc that has text or numbers on it. Look at the numbers or text and remember what it says.

Step 5:
Now look away for 5 seconds.

Step 6:
Return your gaze back to the text or numbers and see if they have changed. If they have not changed, then you are awake and just continue on with your day to day activities.


i think i have found my calling in life.
