 Today I really want to talk about tools that can help you lucid dream These are things that I've personally used or I still use and I just want to explain like very quickly about each of these things How they work and how they're going to help you lucid dream So the first one is actually a fairly old one now. This is the lucid talisman totem Let me just show you a close-up of that. So the talisman totem is a lucid dreaming reality check totem And as you can see it's very nicely designed. It's all metal. It's all engraved and everything and What you do with this totem is you keep it with you at all times And the idea is that you attach a belief to it like say the middle bit You just imagine that every time you're dreaming this will be moving around and so you look at your totem And you ask yourself is it moving around if it's not then you know you're awake If this sort of decoration here is moving then you know that you are dreaming I'll put links to all of these things in the description by the way some of them will be on Amazon some of them will be on various websites and a couple of them will be my own things But so yeah, the lucid dreaming talisman totem is a really effective reality check and you can keep it in your pocket They also make this necklace. They also make it in a necklace form like this Which I kind of like but I always prefer I Prefer the bigger one just because you can keep it in your pocket and actually hold it more easily whereas this is just Obviously as a necklace, so it's a bit harder to take it off and hold and as I said they do Sell both those very cheaply online so I'll put links to those in the description So that's number one the lucid talisman totem number two is a very simple one But a very effective one for falling asleep faster and that is that is pillow spray now I've used pillow spray for years. There are several different types You can get the one you'll probably most commonly see online is this one the this works Lavender pillow spray that's probably the most the best one I would say to get although it comes in fairly small bottles So it depends, you know, this one was more or less the same price and you get obviously a lot more in it So the idea of pillow spray is is that you just spray them on your pillow It helps to relax you helps to put you in a deeper state of you know relaxation ready for sleeping and there is some studies There are some studies to show that lavender pillow sprays do help you fall asleep faster than a placebo or than nothing at all So there is some science behind it and again links in the description number three is actually my own course The lucid dreaming bootcamp the reason I'm mentioning this I won't go too much into detail on why I've included this But the reason that the bootcamp is so effective is because it's in my opinion more effective than any book or course about lucid dreaming because It's the only one that tells you exactly what to do on each specific day for a month You know with a book you can read a chapter then you might forget about it for a week Then you might read another chapter You might read a useful tip and try and implement that on one night with the bootcamp If you avoid all of that procrastination and it literally says day one do these things day two do these things and so on and it's been tailored to make sure that you have lucid dreams within 20 days It's been crafted and designed in such a way that it's exactly what I would do if I was starting from scratch And I just wanted to get to a point where I could lucid dream regularly as fast as possible And so it's really interesting. There's a lot of really interesting and inspiring testimonials and reviews of for the bootcamp If you want to check those out, they'll be in the description as well But yeah, so that is obviously my my course I will mention a few other courses just because I don't want to be like completely biased But in my opinion the bootcamp is the most effective one So far just because it is the only one that actually reinforces what you meant to do on each day And it gets people to take action You know, there are people that have emailed me saying I've tried dozens of other books and courses But this is the only one that I've actually taken action on because it says day two do this and it sort of enforces that It sort of gamifies it in a bit and makes it fun. It's like, you know day four You have a list of a couple of different weird tasks to do Some of them won't even be mentioned in other books because they're not very well known these techniques and tricks So yeah, it's an interesting one. So that's number three So number four is again a sleep aid or a sleep relaxation aid and that is a sleep mask now I'm not actually gonna talk about this particular one. I don't even know what brand this is. It could be anything But what I would suggest you do is just get something like this that's comfortable That is big enough in terms of width and length that it's going to cover most of your eyes A lot of the smaller sleep masks actually don't cover your entire eye So you get some light coming in through the bottom I would advise getting a big one like this so that you make sure that you're blocking out all of the light But then again, sleep masks are a bit of a They're a bit of a weird one because at the same time they are useful But then you shouldn't have any light in your room anyway It should be a completely dark and silent environment. So if you can't do that if you can't achieve that Maybe there's a street lamp outside or something or there's cars or Then yeah sleep mask like this very useful very good to have number five is actually a supplement And it's called clary dream pro now This is a supplement from world of lucid dreaming, but they've now rebranded into two different companies So there's like world of lucid dreaming and then the clary dream company now clary dream pro is not a lucid dreaming inducing supplement It's a V. It's a dream Vividness enhancer. I guess you could say it makes your dreams more vivid. It makes you much more likely to remember them And it just increases the whole experience like if you're already having lucid dreams Or even if you're not if you're just having normal dreams and you want to have lucid dreams Clary dream pro is gonna make the whole thing more vivid. It's gonna make the dreams more realistic You know more profound you're gonna remember them better and more often And it's just an all-round good supplement to be using the ingredients are very strong The dosages are good and that's why it's on the slightly pricey side compared to similar supplements at the same time There aren't really that many similar supplements that can do what clary dream pro can do. So, you know, have a look at it It's really interesting. I've used it. I still use it to this day Very interesting supplement. I'm good friends with a guy that makes it and yeah, linking the description number six is a binaural beets package Now I'm not going to include like a specific recommendation for these just because there are quite a few companies now that make good binaural beets All I would say is get some good headphones Ideally you want to have headphones that you can listen to comfortably while you're sleeping so sleep headphones And the best ones I've found so far are sleep phones Again, I'll put links in the description. These are sort of comfortable wraparound headphones. I've actually lost them They were somewhere in my room So I would have shown you but I can't find them at the moment But sleep phones are the ones I would use and yeah, really comfortable the battery life will easily last for an entire night So eight hours or more and then you can just recharge it via micro USB Very comfortable wireless as well Bluetooth wireless and fairly cheap. So a great option for listening to binaural beets So in terms of binaural beets themselves Avoid the YouTube ones, you know in my honest opinion I've tried lots of them the YouTube binaural beets firstly YouTube Downgrades the quality especially of audio when you upload to it anyway So the quality you're going to get is never going to be as good as the paid ones Which are which are a direct download of the audio and in most cases. They're just fairly cheaply made Not much effort has been put into them. They certainly haven't have been developed in like a professional studio At least most of them haven't so just to be be on the safe side I would say avoid YouTube and stick with the the basic well-reviewed, you know, well-known So binaural beets companies which are in aura unexplainable store meditations tracks, I think it's called meditations audio or something and Bliss coded sound now bliss coded sound you may already know is not actually a binaural beat at all It's a it's more of like a subliminal slash Geometry based golden sound wave type thing. It's really impressive Actually more useful and effective than binaural beats, but it's not a binaural beat in itself But again, there'll be a huge list of links in the description, you know with everything I've mentioned So if you want to just go and check them out, you know, maybe read reviews You can download free samples all that stuff All of that will be in the description So moving on I think we're on number six now I may have got the numbers mixed up moving on you'll be happy to hear we're now going to talk about some free things Some free tools that you can use to to lose a dream to have more dreams sleep better, etc So the first one is actually a very simple technique or method that I've been doing recently And that's called inclined bed therapy. I BT now what this basically means in several hospitals, you know patients It was discovered that if you inclined the bed by just a few degrees the ideal degrees is about five degrees The patients in the hospital would recover faster from certain diseases and illnesses and problems It also helps with things like recovery from inflammation from overtraining It reduces things like acid reflux and indigestion problems in the night. It also helps reduce insomnia I can't explain exactly the science behind it All I can say is I read a very interesting article on it and I was sold, you know So I went and essentially put some books under the head of my bed and raised it by about this much I think it was about four or five inches Which they say is the ideal distance to to elevate the bed by and I have to say I have been sleeping better You know, I have been feeling better. I have been feeling I've been sleeping sort of more thoroughly and I haven't had as many interruptions to my sleep Especially in the early hours of the morning. I've been sleeping solidly So there might be some merit to this and I'll have to keep trying But as I said, this is a free technique and it's very easy to do You just put a couple of books or blocks of wood under your the head of your bed and you raise it up I'll be making a full video on the incline bed therapy soon So watch out for that. But yeah, very simple. Just put some books under your bed and see if it works Okay, next is a mind machine. The prosci on mind machine is something that I've That I've tested I've used it is a very good meditation machine, but this isn't for this isn't for lucid dreaming directly Okay, this is for when you meditate So a lot of you will know I've always said that meditation is very important for lucid dreaming and sleeping and general well-being and mental health and things like that Meditation is one of those things that a lot of people find hard to get started with, you know You just don't know how to do it and especially at the start You very much feel like you just can't focus you you're thinking about other things. You're distracted You can't seem to just let your thoughts go and that is essentially what you're trying to do with meditation You're trying to be aware of your thoughts without interacting with them It's very hard to do at the start, especially if you've never done it a mind machine They're often called things like light and sound machines guns frame machines or audio visual stimulation a Mind machine like the prosci on which will be a link in the description for is a device which Not only plays binaural beats through your stereo headphones But it also synchronizes though those binaural beats with a visual stimulation coming through the guns frames Essentially, there's sunglasses that you put on and they have these programmable LED boxes on each of the lenses And what this lets you do or what the device does for you is it plays flashing colored lights at various intervals and As simple as it sounds sometimes the simple things are the best it really does work It trains your brainwaves and you instantly feel like you're meditating Those of you who have meditated properly before This is a way of like fast-forwarding to the how you feel after half an hour or an hour of meditation Within just a few minutes, but then you do pay for that, you know These devices are not cheap. What I would say is they do last a lifetime, you know, they're very reliable They they work properly as they should but they are expensive So if you finding if you're finding meditation difficult or you just want to get started or you're used to just having like an instant fix To something this is a very good way of doing that if you want to learn to meditate It's a very easy and quick way of instant like fast-forwarding to how you feel after an hour of proper meditation So a lot of people find that very useful I know I find it useful especially on days when I don't really want to sit down for an hour or you know If I'm busy or if I work up late or something It's a very good way of getting a meditation session in Without spending as much time doing it if that makes sense and there's tracks for all sorts of things like sleeping and Focus and awareness and all this lovely stuff. So check the pros and device out If I had to say which one I would choose which mind machine I would choose because there are lots of them I would say to go with the casino mind machine, which is another one. I've tried again I have a video on that and an article and everything I'll put as many links as I can remember in the description, but I would say the casino is better than the prosion But the prosion is slightly cheaper. So it's up to you. All right. Next is a basic multivitamin Now you're probably wondering why would I recommend a multivitamin as a lucid dreaming aid and the reason for that is a bottle like this What cost you about 70p or if you're in America probably about a dollar maybe even less probably probably much less actually and a multivitamin is essential because Let's say if you're taking a supplement. Let's say for taking Claridream Pro or vitamin B6, which is for dream recall Or even if you're not taking anything a loop a multivitamin is going to make sure that all of your vitamin and nutrient levels are as Close to ideal or perfect as they can be And they're very cheap, you know a multivitamin is so so cheap There is amazing me why not everybody just gets a multivitamin because they give you as many nutrients and vitamins as you as you need more or less Obviously, they're no substitute for an actual proper diet like I would I would advise I would advise a plant-based vegan diet if I you know if I had to say But not everybody can do that or wants to do that So a multivitamin is a good way of getting the vitamins you need and it does actually include vitamin B6 a lot of the a lot of multivitamins include vitamin B6, which is essential for dream recall and memory in general so it's a very cheap way of making sure that your brain is getting all the vitamins it needs and You know I found that it did make a difference a very small difference But at the same time it's so cheap and easy to do and it improves not only your dream recall But also your overall health and you know your whole gastrointestinal health everything like it improves everything So very easy hack a word now on lucid dreaming Devices now a lot of you will have seen in recent years and recently even there's a lot of There are a lot of devices on the market They're usually released of a roughly once or twice a year a new device will come out which will guarantee or claim to guarantee lucid dreaming instantly What I would say about these devices is do your research Okay, work out how they say they're going to work and How they say that they decide like the science behind it that how they're planning to actually Make you become lucid it does it sound like it's legit or is it more likely just a marketing scam? A lot of the devices out there today Don't really work and I've said a lot about this before and it can be a bit annoying or disheartening to hear that because I know It's certainly when I was first starting I was very excited About the idea of a device that you can just like plug onto your head or you know put next to your bed or something That would guarantee or induce a lucid dream It's a very exciting tool But then you've got to think at the same time if there was something that could do that it would be Huge you know the media would pick it up It would be very very popular and although although a lot of these devices have funded fairly quickly, you know and Funded to a high amount. I'm just saying do your research be sceptical a little bit be critical Don't just accept every marketing one liner that's given to you as truth. I do have a post Okay, I do have a post sort of reviewing and commenting on all of the lucid dreaming masks or devices that are out there I'm not going to recommend any particular mask or device just because they're updated so often Some of them are controversial, you know, there's a lot of there's a lot of drama behind the whole lucid dreaming devices Topic on on on especially on YouTube and online and I don't really want to give a recommendation until I've personally tried a mask and I can put my word behind it and I know it works You know, I have tried things like have tried things like the sleep shepherd Which was okay, but then a bit uncomfortable and a bit difficult to use But I've always found you know Throughout the years. I've been doing this. I've always found that learning how to lucid dream properly You know actually learning it and putting in the time to read about it and learn how to do it and how it works That works so much better than any device or you know any supplement any by-neural beats It works better than anything because you've actually learned how to do it. Okay, there's no shortcut unfortunately So there'll be a link in the description to a post that I wrote which I think that at the time of writing or at least now Since I updated it includes every lucid dreaming device or mask and a comment on them There's links of how to get them if you want to try them with discounts and things like that So worth having read, you know, if you're interested in lucid dreaming devices or masks or Technology or that sort of stuff. Okay, so that is my that is a list That is the top tools or resources that I would suggest you try If you want to lucid dream Okay, there's not a huge amount of them because these are the most in you know the most effective in my opinion Most useful ones. I have tried all of these. I can say that, you know, I can put my way behind these and say they do work There's a lot of things that you need to try for yourself Like for example by-neural beats are quite a controversial topic because a lot of people If they haven't used them properly or they haven't tried the right ones For example, like I said about YouTube the quality a lot of them don't work Okay, and that is true But the ones that are produced to a high standard with research going into the frequencies that they're using and targeting And the timing of the frequencies and how slowly or quickly they move from one frequency to another The companies that have done that and put the work in they do work. Okay, and I've tried those I've been really critical. I've I've almost wanted them to fail But I found that they had worked especially bliss coded sound and things like that So I hope you enjoyed this video guys leave a like leave a comment Let me know if I've missed anything because I'm sure you guys will think of something and I'll see you next time One more thing to add about the lucid talisman is I actually for some reason I have two versions of this So there's actually two different versions here. There's actually two different versions And I don't I'm not sure which one I prefer. I'm also not entirely sure which one is for sale at the moment So as you can see, they are both different designs This one obviously is slightly bigger. I don't know. I kind of like both of them equally I would say that this one I like that it's bigger At the same time this one I like the color scheme like the gold and silver and I like the infinity symbol and everything like that So you'll have to click the link in description to actually figure out which one of these is for sale right now I can't tell you just off the top of my head.
