    Since I have been writing my dreams down in a journal, almost daily for 40 years. I am usually able to remember a lot of the details. I am a fast typist, and my fingers fly over they keys, as I recount things. I travel a lot in my dreams, but not in real life. In my dreams I am in other cities, I have never been to. I always meet people I don't know, and most times I can describe how they look. Many have first names, but not always last names. When I awaken, I research the names On-line, to see if they are real people, or if the name was in the news or something. It has never happened, that there is a real person with that name. On some real rare occasions, a known celebrity, will be in my dreams. Like an actor, or a singer.

      I sometimes go back to the same dream towns and cities... So on..
      I do not write them down like you, but as I sometimes have strong feelings that is easy to remember.

      @@nikocat2008 From my earliest vivid dreams, were beginning in around 1970, when I was 17, I felt I had to write them down. Imagine having more than 40 years worth of dreams. Re-reading them jogs my memory of them. I never seem to visit the same (dream) towns. I also didn't have vivid dreams every day. Some years I had many, other years about 35 per year. In 2011, I logged 70, I don't know why I had so many vivid dreams that year. There are patterns, some are weird ones about my place of employment. Those were often (nightmares). By the way,....I am presently 70 years old.

    I grew up in a military family. We moved very often and that meant changing schools about every two years or so. When I was in Jr. High school and High school, the hardest part was learning how to navigate new schools. I have so many "anxious" dreams about finding the right room (rooms) to be in for my next class. I wake up very anxious, but I understand why I have these dreams.

    😅I had an unpleasant dream, told myself in the dream that it couldn’t be real, told myself to wake up (I have done this before) this time when I thought I woke up I only dreamed I woke up, I realised I was still asleep, this happened a few times and I had to eventually shake myself awake, the experience was scary at the time, maybe I was in a deeper sleep that took a lot to shake myself out of

    Some of the most amazing emotions I felt in my life, happened in dreams, although those were not lucid. I would love to experience these emotions in dreams, if I could trigger those kinds of dreams to happen.

    Listened to the first half of this podcast yesterday. Had a lucid dream this morning. I was astonished. This has probably happened to me a half dozen times in my life. I actually remembered to look at my hands. And sure enough they looked weird. Oddly, I'm not sure I was able to count my fingers, but my hands were sort of blocky. Sadly, it still somehow seemed impossible that I was dreaming, so I woke myself up. I sure hope this gets to be a thing. In the future I'll try to guide the dream instead of waking myself.

    OMG!!😲 It worked! I just looked at my digital clock - it said 5:00. Looked away, and quickly back again. And OMG - just like he said, it had changed!!
    To 5:01! This Lucid Dreaming feels so freakin' real!!
    J/K LOL!!😂
    Actually, I love this series, and this Sleep/Dream set of episodes, in particular.
    I used to have recurring dreams in which I could fly. Had a whole routine of how to get airborne, overcome wondering if it were really true or not, and the thrill of making it happen. To concentrate, just begin to lift off, at first only barely & with great difficulty..., but then with increasing confidence, ease, & elegance. Such a beautiful feeling of joyous freedom!😃
    Then, one time, I awoke in mid-flying dream - and suddenly realized in that moment that it had all been dreams all along. I haven't flown since. I really miss😢 that wonderful feeling.
    Perhaps, with these new insights, maybe I could coax such dreams back into my mind?🤔
    Now, for such awesome content, why so few comments?? Only 39, after 7 months?? That's not right!! C'mon - feed the Almighty Algorithm!!😊
    Thank you, David!! @InnerCosmosPod

    I am mind blown. I just left a long comment on the last video about my dream experiences since I was a child to now and this was exactly what I was describing. One of the things I mentioned was that I used to dream a lot and I would remember many of my dreams. I still remember dreams I had as a child, but I drew the conclusion that because of those memories, I started to become aware that I was dreaming as early as 5 or 6 years old. I was able to wake myself up from scary dreams. Then I realized that I could fly in my dreams so I stopped waking myself up and I’m in my 40’s now and flying is still my absolute favorite thing to do, well that and being able to move things with my mind. I had a profound experience in a dream that I was running in a place I’ve never seen before and I was running, the people were looking at me strangely and pointing at me as if if I should not be there I think that was the point that triggered my awareness and I remember thinking, how amazing it would be if I could figure out if the place I was dreaming about was a real place. So I stopped running at what looked like a cafe and I was able to read the word that was on the sign and it said middlegarten. So my intention was to write the word as soon as I woke up to remember it so that when I awoke, I could do some research. I continued running and I remember being on a road with trees that had yellow leaves, and there was a river beside me. I got to the end of the road and the only way for me to get away now was to jump and to fly over the water. I was almost caught off guard by what looked like a low bridge with small arches and with little time to think, I had to fly though one of the arches so I wouldn’t hit the bridge. I remember being so afraid flying through the arch and after I flew through, I got to see the the skyline of this place briefly before I awoke. I woke up and I immediately wrote the word down, which, was a great thing because I fell back asleep. Later on that day, I was explaining this dream to my sister because I was trying to describe the place I was at to her but the overwhelming feeling that I was really there. Then I’m told her that I read a word and she asked me what it was and I couldn’t remember. I told her that I had written it down after I woke up. We talked about how we both thought that we couldn’t read in our dreams and that confused me also. I did not know what or how but I was able to. To wrap this up, after doing some research about the word, I found out that it’s a real word and it’s the German English translation for middle garden. I searched for this place thinking it it could be im Germany, but I was having a difficult time finding it. I beba. Searching neighboring countries bearing in mind the German presence in those places and it turns out, after searching the word along with the description of the yellow trees and the water, I found a search hit and it was Prague in the Czech Republic. Now I’m all excited and my heart is beating fast and hard and as a start looking though the images, o found a picture of a road with yellow trees alongside a river. My heart stopped. I opened up maps to find out what else was in the area and after the dead end, there was the low lying bridge with the arches under it. I literally and without any control, started crying. When my sister got home, without saying anything I showed her the photos I found, she said wow that’s a really beautiful place and I agreed and she asked me what was going, I asked her, do you remember the dream I had that i was running and the people pointing and the word I wrote and she said yes. All of a sudden , the color drained from her face she says annnddd the yellow trees, and the water and omg the bridge with the arches. We both began screaming in excitement and after that, I knew for a fact that in some way, maybe in another dimension or timeline, I got a chance to visit Prague. And it’s in my plan to visit Prague in the near future hopefully.

    SO! I Lucid dream using the hand method. I count my fingers to 5 twice and the second time never matches; or if i start speaking Japanese "fluently" when i barely speak it in real life i know im dreaming. another trigger is sleep paralysis: so instead of trying to wake my self up i tell my self to go back to sleep and immediately i start sort of hallucinating lucid dreaming... its kinda hard to explain . And Yes! Sleeping with a TV or podcast often shapes dreams too, and its so fascinating because it calibrates in real time. For example i often sleep to say Neil Tyson or Jim Al-kalili documentaries and as they speak it all shows up as visuals in my dreams or as a personal lecture to me as if we are talking face to face.
    All this happens to me because of really bad insomnia. Either way i will go for a sleep test but problem is i dont even think i can fall asleep in a lab or wires on my face. Thanks David!

    I used to have a recurring nightmare. Long story short, I figured out i was dreaming once and after that, I could figure it out every night, even in good dreams, sometimes 2 or 3 times a night. But, i usually woke up shortly after figuring out i was dreaming, usually on purpose because i was a little worried the dream would turn on me and go into a bad dream, but sometimes I'd wake even though i didnt want to.
    One night, after maybe a year or so of doing this, i figired out i was dreaming and decided specifically NOT to wake up because it always took me 20 or 30 minutes to fall back to sleep. After that one night of not using the ability to wake myself up, i lost the ability to know i was dreaming aside from only the worst dreams. All the fun i was having playing around in dreams was gone. Everything went back to normal.

    What a terrific series of films. I don't think I've ever had a lucid dream, by definition, but I do know that often, almost usually, I have extremely vivid dreams. Indeed, sometimes a dream, for good or for ill, will deeply affect my mood, sometimes for days afterward. As a little boy, I tried to explain to my parents what was happening to me. My mother would just shake her head, cluck a few times and tell me I would outgrow it. My father just grunted and ordered me to stop acting like a little girl. That was like 72 years ago and today, I'm just a happy guy, permanently surprised that I have lived this long.

    • @simesaid
      @simesaid 15 дней назад +1

      Haha, great comment! Yeah, it's one of the most paradoxical parts of human existence - that "youth is wasted on the young". When we are young we are so hung up, so concerned, so worried, about things, about _everything!_ And then, as we age, we gradually learn that this or that thing that _had_ once seemed so important to us really isn't that important after all. And this process simply keeps occurring. What was important to us in our 20s becomes less so in our 30s, and what seemed important to us in our 40s becomes less so by the time we reach our 50s. The problem is, though, that even once you recognise this process in your own life, there is still no other way to "let it go" than to actually live through it. When we are young we have almost limitless energy to live life however we might want to, and to _be_ almost anyone that we might want to be, but we're all so hung-up on life's trivial details that we expend most of our energy running around blindly just crashing into things and not really getting very far at all. And it's not until we become much older, until we _mature,_ that we can begin to see what is and what is not really important in life. Youth is wasted on the young. Then, if we are very lucky, by the time we reach the point that we have and we are in our 70s or 80s, we can finally see that, in reality, there are very, very few things in life that are truly important. We learn that things such as friends, family, forgiveness (of both ourselves and others), generosity, fairness, kindness, and inner peace are what truly matter and that all the other things that we were once so fixated on, so focused, so committed to, making money, advancing our careers, projecting our personal image, living in the right house in the right suburb and being seen wearing the right clothes etc - that those things were all just annoying distractions in life, that they were all just temporary illusions that blocked us from reaching a much more simple, a much more peaceful, and ultimately a much more content life. It seems to be the case, and this is the paradoxical part, that it's not until we give up _trying_ to be happy that, finally, any lasting happiness comes. Youth is wasted on the young, yes, but this _must_ always be the case. For it is _only_ after some 70-plus years of exploring all those things and places that being human permits, of looking there and seeking that, of trying, of striving, to reach a place where we can finally breathe out a sigh, rest our tired mind and body, and _know_ that we have found it, that we have finally found the secret, finally reached that place of quiet contentment, of lasting inner peace. Because, until we've looked everywhere else we possibly can, until we've travelled down every last road towards that promised land, and until we have seen for _ourselves_ that there is no Nirvana there, it is only then that we learn the secret of life lies not _out there,_ but _within._ When we are 20, or 30, or even 40 or 50, we kind of take life for granted, and when we wake up each morning, it's nothing special; that your heart is still beating is simply to be expected. And it's not until a few more years have progressed that we begin to learn our existence here _isn't_ guaranteed, that life, as cliched as the saying may be, is indeed a gift. Because it is. Life is an infinitely precious, beautiful, and ultimately mysterious gift. It's just a pity that we can't see it when we're all a bit younger. Haha.
      Anyway, sorry if this message is poorly structured, contains grammatical crimes, or is even a little incoherent; all I wanted to say, though, is that reading your comment made me smile and that I'm happy for you. We might not be able to help wasting our youth while we are young, but the trade-off is being able to laugh about the craziness of it all once we're a bit, ahem, older. Life's a trip. The whole damn shows a trip. The world is mad, so what can you do? We can laugh, we can smile, we can say _c'est la vie._ We can marvel at the sheer insanity of it all. We can joyfully wonder at just how unlikely it is... at just what a gift it is... to bear witness to it all.
      Have a great day!

      I met my mom in my dream twice since she passed away this spring. She was 92 year old and I am 62 now. My emotions when I met my mom in those dreams were quite different from others. When I see my mom in the dream, i can feel who I am as a current self, and I am so happy to meet and hug her, but while hugging my mom, suddenly I hear a child's crying whose voice is also me. And i am so sad and wake up. The dream is so beautiful as well as heartbroken. Still whenever i recollect the dream, my eyes are swollen with tears 😢

    This is how I stopped having horrible recurrent nightmares. Not sure how it happened but when the nightmare starts or I recognize components it's just like I say no, this is not real...I'm going to make it a tree and a whole tree dream happens. It's way cool. I've had vivid dreams including sleep walking and talking all my life and have frequent lucid dreams.

    I vividly recall my last nightmare ever. It was some time around middle school. I was dreaming about "monsters" chasing me around my gymnasium. My brain said "this is ridiculous" and I was able to wake myself up (after slight paralysis for what felt like a long time but was probably seconds). It never occurred to me to participate and control it. I wanted out of it. I don't think that I've ever felt in control of a dream since. It must be an interesting sensation to be a director in your own subconscious.

    Yo tuve dos o tres veces sueños lúcidos. Uno de ellos fue buscado. Recuerdo que me di cuenta de que estaba en un sueño, pero no cómo me di cuenta. De todos modos, después de darme cuenta, inmediatamente me dispuse a flotar por los aires y sentí el viento en la cara el cual me hizo sonreír. Además de esto, vi un paisaje bello ilustrado por palmeras, arena y pirámides egipcicias, las cuales; claramente, me daban presuntos indicios de que podía ver una hermosa parte de Egipto.

    I think it was lucid dreaming that shook up my assessment of De Ja vu experiences. I was unable to decipher, at times, if a recalled memory (de ja vu) was from a dream or from past experience. Anyone else have this? When you realize, in reflection, that a dream of the past and an experience are equally weighted? We recall the facts or truth we wish to be influenced by?
    They say that our brains fake some of the peripheral imagery, with sight, so to allow your focus on details your attention is drawn to. I digress😂🙏

    Carlos Castaneda, discreditted though he may be, had said that to induce a lucid dream you have to have the will and focus to look at your hands in a dream and it will become lucid. I actually managed to do it one and it seemed to be correct.

    Lucid dreaming is terrifying to me because my conscious mind becomes trapped in the subconscious and i can no longer wake up by myself, someone else needs to shake me really hard in order for me to wake up. I could hear noises but cannot wake up.
    One time though i realized that i was dreaming and i came up with a plan to solve a math problem to check on how much i can use my brain during sleeptime. The thing is.. we are limited in what we can do in this realm. But i guess it also depends on the individual's brain

    Amazing non empty headed video, thanks. Why is there never any money in my dreams? Even when visiting a 'familiar' bar or pub, the bar tender will arrive with a beer and never get paid. Only on one occasion did one bar tender say "It's on the house" This was as I was reaching for my wallet in my left pocket. I have not had a lucid dream in two years due to disturbing dreams produced by events such as Covid19 and ww3 or 4. I may resume soon.. Thanks again.

    By composing my own music, I’m able to maximize alpha wave activity and easily enter lucid dreaming state by listening to that music. It begins as mind movies are induced by the music which become increasingly vivid as drowsiness mounts. This is how I might pass time after I become bedridden in advanced age. So I keep composing and producing spatial-audio tunes and building playlists exclusively of these homemade works specifically for that purpose, while also designing a high-fidelity surround sound bed to enjoy them.

    When I was a child and into my late teens I have always controlled me dreams. I was actually able to "rewind" a dream and make it go into a different direction.
    Then I had a period when I had exactly the same, bizarre nightmare that would wake me up in complete panic... Since then I cannot remember any of my dreams (30 years or so).

    • @theozoo4350
      @theozoo4350 Час назад

      Interesting. When I was a kid I also had this "rewind" capability. But I did not have the ability to change anything, so I was watching the new version of the dream unfold and then decided if it is acceptable or not. Sometimes I had to rewind the dream up to 10 times to get the version I liked, sometimes I woke myself up after many trials because it just did not get better. It was an excellent tool to change nightmares. But as I grown up, I was completely lost this capability too.

    Inception might be real. :) I remember multiple times when I realized I was dreaming (in uncomfortable dreams) I decided to wake up. Just to realize after a while I was still dreaming and waking up for real. That means a dream in a dream. Though I never had a dream in a dream in a dream...

    I'm well impressed with the thoughts about dreaming! I often fall asleep with the tv running, last night i was watching a documentary called "wildest: islands" i saw some crabs before i fell asleep, in my dream was large crabs, but the documentary moved on to giant tortoises, and i remember seeing large crabs, but hearing they're large tortoises, and i remember thinking"those aren't tortoises!" Normally, this would initiate a lucid experience
    But it didn't

In other dreams I am engaged in a conversation, and I am talking away, and something is said that makes me laugh. My laughing wakes me up.

    I occasionally dreamt of someone speaking a foreign language. Once while I checked the words after becoming awake, they turned to be nonsense. Since then when I approach someone speaking a “foreign language,” the speaker stops speaking.

    Great lecture. Question: what about a dream, very real , full of details when you interage with e others people in a coerente manner, its like living another life. That happens to me , almost every night.

    Are there any studies with subjects trying ‘out of body’ experiments during lucid dreaming? I tried this about 40+ yrs. ago when first trying lucid dreaming. I felt or heard a buzzing sound going thru my body that scared me, so woke myself up…never tried again!

    Had dreams in the past in which my hand slips from the edge of the bed and exactly at that time, I am falling from a cliff at the end of a long trecking expedition in dream. Can we have a dream backwards that is triggered by the physical slippinng of the hand and build a long story and experience in positive time sequence?

    Hey! It's so lovely to watch this series. From my very childhood I have heard my mothers or my grandparents saying that the dreams that we see early morning or rather just before waking up often turns out to be real or something like that happens in reality! I had taken it as a myth for most of the cases unless I heard of some people experiencing this in real! What can be a possible scientific answer to this?

    Sleeping less than usual will help to have lucid dreams. If I only sleep for four hours per night for a week and then take a five-minute nap at noon, I will be more likely to have a lucid dream.

      Sleep is really vital for health and it's not healthy to sleep four hours per night for a week. Sure it may help but maybe not worth the health risks.

    Sleeping propped up, like in a recliner, also makes lucid dreams more prevalent

    When I lost my visualizing 5 years ago after surgery, I realized l didn't remember my dreams anymore because I couldn't didn't have pictures to trigger the memory. I know l dream, but l can't remember them. This is called Aphantasia . About 5 percent of people have this, mostly from birth. Some people have all 5 senses Aphantasia . So, not everyone can dream. . Consider yourself lucky.

    Any mention of food intake during the day prior to these attempted lucid trips? Seems like sugar in its many forms kicks off more activity for me as "fuel" during the night. Without practice, the main pattern in my life has been thoughts during the day that didn't get full resolution. Something distracted me or thought of a person then quickly changed to another subject. Those unresolved references get "cleaned up" rather vividly. ;)

    Wow! I loved this episode, but it was too dense with information. I will have to listen to it again. I think what I thought Lucid Dreaming was, is wrong. What I have experienced in some of my dreams, in rare moments, is a feeling that I have floated out of my body. And I called that a lucid dream. I feel I have left my physical body, and I float out of it, and I am hovering or floating over my sleeping body, and looking down, and I see myself sleeping in my bed. In that floating state, I move about my bedroom, next I am standing up right, but I am able to levitate, over the floor. I perform some simple tasks, all the while I feel my eyes are wide open, or that I can see through my closed eyelids. What I am seeing is clear and focused. I enjoy and I am aware of feeling light as a feather. Like my body has no solidity, and I am weightless. I feel extremely good, in those dreams.

    There are times I dream events that happen then actually happen but not necessarily in the exact way as it happened in the dream. I'm not psychic, I don't ever think that but I've never been able to understand that. Then there are certain dreams I've had since childhood and I don't understand why but they always come before life altering. It also happens that I dream when I'm being cheated on when it actually is going on. I cannot explain it but it's always true. So what kind of dreaming am I doing?

    Have you ever heard the funniest joke in the world in a dream and wake up laughing, but don't remember the joke? Have woke up angry at someone from a dream you had about them? The movie 'Dad' (I think it was with Ted Danson and Jack Lemmon) is about a man's father living a whole different consistent life in his dreams as he slips away in dementia during his waking hours. highly recommended movie

    I had plenty of lucid dreams before my 20s. I dont see how I could have possibly communicated anything to the outside world.
    I couldnt remember my name, my age, where I lived, couldnt read, couldn't interpret numbers, couldnt reliably speak or reliably understand speech, et cetera. Successfully relaying any information either way seems kind of sketchy

    jk. Another decent show on an interesting topic. I wonder how lucid dreaming relates to sleep paralysis.
    One piece of advice I'd have for the Producers would be to segment the episode into subtopics, but keep up the good work otherwise.
