 Hey guys, I'm going to be telling you about a lucid dreaming technique called the siles technique the senses induced lucid dreaming Tutorial method. Okay. Now this technique is not new. It is I think it was created by someone called cosmic iron on a some forum somewhere I can't remember the exact details. So sorry about that, but I will try and remember and put it in the description Essentially this technique involves focusing on your senses as the name suggests, right? So it works very well for beginners because it doesn't rely on much Technical knowledge is just sort of like a step-by-step thing that you do Much like the way back to bed. I guess you could say not like the wild which obviously takes a bit more practice and needs a bit more Experience I guess you could say, you know, it takes a bit longer to master that. It's quite difficult So the senses induced lucid dreaming technique the sile technique involves Going to sleep sleeping for about six hours Waking up. Okay during your REM sleep because as you remember guys, hopefully I always tell you this Your REM sleep is where you're most likely to lose a dream in the early hours of the morning involves targeting this time and Focusing on your senses. So the way it works is this you set your alarm six hours. You sleep for six hours Okay, you then wake up at about say five six a.m. And you turn your alarm off Then you lay there. You don't move. Okay, and now you're going to perform three I guess you could say cycles, right? So you're going to focus firstly on your site Then on your hearing what you can hear and then what you can feel. Okay, I Think that's that's the correct way of doing this. So you'll spend 30 seconds Okay, just focusing on what you can see so you can either do this with your eyes open looking around the room or You can do this with your eyes closed, which I recommend and what you can sort of imagine or what you can Visualize, okay So if you find it hard to visualize start with doing this with your eyes open If you don't find it hard to visualize then do it with your eyes closed Okay, so 30 seconds you're going to focus just on what you can see Okay, then you're going to spend about 30 seconds Focusing on what you can hear and this can be things you can hear in the real world as you're laying there in your bed Or it could be things that you imagine hearing. Okay, the point is just to listen to the sounds and really Try and take in the tonality, you know the volume all the subtleties of the sound Okay, don't worry about trying to listen. Just sort of let the sounds come to you Okay much like meditation. You don't try and think you just let the thoughts wash over you Okay, so do that for 30 seconds then spend another 30 seconds focusing on what you can feel Okay, now what I mean by this is what you can physically Experience as you're laying there at the bed. How does the mattress feel against your back? How do the pillows feel against your head? Okay? Is it cold? Is it warm? Focus on the really small details of what you can feel your kinesthetic sense. Okay Now once you've done that you can repeat the cycles I think the original technique was that you were meant to do like you meant to go through those three cycles Okay site hearing and feeling Quickly so you go through them quickly at the start and then you slow down and you spend longer on each one Maybe 90 seconds or so. I would suggest just going straight in and doing 30 second cycles So I'd suggest going to sleep for six hours when you wake up Turn your alarm off and then go straight into doing 30 second cycles with these three different senses I've not included your smell the sense of smell because I find that's not as effective I'm not sure if that was in the original, but I just Thought I'd modify it slightly So I'd suggest leaving that one out and just focusing on what you can see here and feel Either in your mind or in real life. Okay, if you find it easier to visualize like I said in With your eyes closed do that if you don't then keep your eyes open and look around the room See what you can see in your own bedroom. Okay now The idea behind this technique is that it's focused on Sort of priming your mind. So you're going to work like I said, you're going to sleep for six hours You're going to wake up You're going to do these cycles of 30 seconds where you're focused on one sense at a time After that when you feel like you're sufficiently relaxed and you could go back to sleep You're going to go back to sleep with no intention other than becoming lucid Okay, so don't don't keep yourself awake as you would try to do Like a wake back to bed technique. Don't try and keep your mind awake Just let yourself fall asleep after you've done those cycles of focusing intently on your senses And you'll find that you should naturally become lucid As a result of that because you've woken up Okay, so you've got the sort of adrenaline spike. You've got the wake up hormones. I guess you could say flowing through you to some degree You've focused on your senses. So you've primed your mind for awareness and alertness. Okay, you've you've practiced focusing on certain things And then you're going back to sleep during your You know the golden time for lucid dreams, which is the early hours of the morning So it's sort of a very you're stacking the odds in your favor put it that way You're very likely to lucid dream if you do that And that's why it's actually a good beginner's technique. I guess you could say because it's fairly easy to learn It's fairly fairly easy to do and it's fairly effective. I mean, it won't work all the time, but it will work a lot at the time So that's it guys. This is a short video.
