![]() ![]() In this state, your subconscious remains awake but your conscious mind remains asleep. If you've ever fallen asleep but woken a few minutes later because you dreamt that you stepped down a hole or off a ledge in your sleep (and you actually physically feel yourself taking the step), you'll know the limbo state I mean. This balance keeps you in a state of limbo, in a cat-nap-like sleep state where you are almost asleep and able to dream lightly but would be woken if someone made a noise or called out your name. Once the music has taken you down into a deeply relaxed Theta state, it then begins to slowly drop down into the Delta frequency zone, hovering just above the point where you might fall asleep. ![]() It is in this state of higher consciousness that we obtain awareness beyond that of our everyday physical world experience. Theta is known as the meditation state because Theta waves are abundant when meditators access deep meditation.Īlso consider that in deep meditation we stimulate the third eye, the gate that leads to inner realms and spaces of higher consciousness. Our binaural beats Lucid Dreaming meditation almost mimics the sleep cycle process, but with a specific advantage that will assist you in lucid dreaming.įirst, the music uses Theta frequencies to guide you into a calm, relaxed state. Understanding this is key to understanding how lucid dreaming can occur, and determining how to achieve it. Delta waves are the slowest brainwaves and present in deep sleep, stages 3 and 4. Theta waves are present in sleep stages 1 and 2, when we're in light sleep. ![]() It isn't always exactly the same, but each night we cycle through the same frequency zones. Sleep has a specific brainwave cycle blueprint. Having this awareness is common during light sleep episodes, like those you experience during an afternoon nap. If you have ever experienced a dream where you had some level of awareness that you were dreaming, you have probably lucid dreamed. It sounds complicated, but actually most of us will experience at least one accidental episode in a lifetime, so it is very possible to achieve. To lucid dream, we need to be in a sleep state but remain aware. It is like being a fly on the wall we are watching ourselves play a role in the dream.īut when we lucid dream, we can take control of the actor playing the role, so to speak. Typically, when we dream we have no control over our actions or those of others. Lucid dreaming is basically a hybrid state of consciousness whereby we become self-aware during a dream. Lucid dreaming constitutes a hybrid state of consciousness with definable and measurable differences from waking and from REM sleep, particularly in frontal areas. More recent research studies have closely analyzed the phenomenon and properly defined the measurable differences from being awake and typical REM sleep: Dutch psychiatrist and writer Frederik Van Eeden first coined the term lucid dreaming in the 1880s.Įeden's research demonstrated that during lucid dreaming the dreamer was able to manipulate their experiences within the dream environment. ![]()
