 Hey, so I made a video I think about five years ago about what lucid dreaming feels like and the problem is since then a Lots changed and to be honest that video was not very good So in this video, I'm going to explain exactly what lucid dreaming feels like in different categories So for example pain, pleasure, mind-altering experiences, random things and kind of like random other things as well So first let's talk about, so first let's talk about pain Now pain in a lucid dream feels very different to pain in real life They both still feel like they hurt. So when you have a painful experience in a lucid dream That's say if somebody throws a box at your head or something or if you get punched. It's still gonna feel painful It's still gonna feel painful. It's still gonna seem like it hurts But it won't be the same type of intensity of pain as it is in waking life in waking life. It's gonna feel both Neurological and also physical. You're gonna feel the effects of the pain in two different ways Physical and then also your mind thinking about the pain which kind of reinforces the physical in a dream You don't have the physical pain. You just have the mental pain So you only have one side of what is normally a two-part pain equation I hope that makes sense the long story short It doesn't hurt as much because you only have the perception of pain Instead of the actual nerve signals firing which they do when you have physical pain So what that means is there's a limit and it doesn't actually it's not actually that bad When you have when you have a When you experience pain in a dream It's just not that bad compared to waking life because it's only one side of the equation You don't have the physical pain. So that's good news. Okay now pleasure. So we're talking specifically about more sensual experiences in a dream these can tend to feel in the moment They can tend to feel more pleasurable than waking life when you're in the dream But the memory of them is of course not as Pleasurable and it the memory of them is not as good as the memory of real life pleasurable experiences And that's because in the dream Again, you only have the mental aspect of the pleasure. You don't have the physical Sensations you your nerves are not firing in the same way or even at all Compared to in physical life when you have pleasure in a dream so again, it feels to your brain it feels and seems like it's really intense in the moment, but It's not as intense as waking life. So it's kind of similar to pain in that regard. By the way, apparently only 80 By the way, apparently only 20% or less of people that watch my videos are actually subscribed So if that's you maybe consider subscribing it would really help me out And it means that you get notified about new content or something. Okay, so here's where things get really interesting time dilation So what does time dilation feel like in a lucid dream? Well, it's the perception of the passing of time is Varsely different in a dream compared to waking life, but there are some similarities So when you're in a dream and you're doing loads of crazy things you'll do it having different experiences and it's like One thing after another, you know, you're going from adventure to adventure What tends to happen is that you it seems like lots of time is passing Way more time than is actually passing and this is hence the time dilation, right? It fills you and this is where the experience of feeling like you're in a dream for several weeks when Realistically, it's just a few minutes. Okay. This is similar not the same But this is similar to in waking life when I don't know if you were what it was like when you were a kid but for me when I was younger and the summer holidays came around those six weeks of Holidays from school felt like years because in those six weeks I would do lots of activities You know, I would go camping go swimming But maybe go on a little trip do various things every day felt like a week Because there wasn't there was no schedule or routine. It was just kind of do fun exciting things constantly for six weeks It's the same sort of thing in a dream when you do really lots of adventurous and exciting things back to back It feels like more time is passing or at least it feels like time is passing Slower to you and you're packing more into it. Okay, so the next one is mind-altering Experiences, what do these feel like in a lucid dream and for these again? It depends on the experience but from I'm going to talk about one of my experiences which is lucid transcendence I've made a video about this which you can just find in my channel And this is where I basically was able to dissolve the dream scene. So I was able so I became lucid Became aware of the fact I was dreaming and I levitated my body up. So I was kind of like laying Floating while laying down and I dissolved everything around me. So all I could see was just white light It wasn't coming from anywhere It was just kind of like filling everything I could perceive every space around me was just white light and I experienced several emotions at the same time and Different sensations all at the same time Including pain. So it was like pain, pleasure, excitement, happiness, sad, all the different emotions that you can think about I experienced them all at the same time in this lucid transcendence experience So that was quite overwhelming and to be honest There's no actual way of describing to you what that feels like other than just saying It's like experiencing all the emotions at the same time That's just one example There are many things you can do in lucid dreams like lucid transcendence where you can't really describe how it feels In your everyday waking language, you have to actually experience it You can't describe how the experience feels and then there are some other things that you can do for example You can ask the dream to show you something surprising and this is something which It's not for beginners because what will often happen is the dream will show you Something so crazy that you just you will not be prepared for it So this is not for beginners, but if you want an experience or if you want to have some kind of crazy dream Get lucid and tell the dream to show you something surprising.
