 Some ladies and gents today's video how to lose a dream in under five minutes So this is actually going to be a video in which I teach you how to lose a dream in the most basic fundamental Steps that I know how to explain. Okay, this is not going to be a technique This is just going to be like the fundamentals of what you need to know in order to lose a dream in under five minutes So it's like a five-minute lesson not a five-minute technique. Okay, so step one Before you even think about lucid dreaming you need to be able to remember the dreams You do have that's the first and most important step So the best way of doing this is to start writing your dreams down every morning in a diary You don't have to write down every detail. You just have to write down something and that's the key here keep a diary by your bed write down whatever you can remember in the morning and highlight the important bits do this for a month solid until you can remember at least one vivid dream every night So the best way of doing that is literally just to get a note pad and start writing in it That's set one. Step two is you need to do what's known as reality checks So this is where you test your reality the most basic reality check you can do and Probably the most effective as well is where you try to push a finger on one hand through the palm of your other hand The reason you do this. Okay, the reason it works is Because in waking life, this will never go through you will never be able to push your finger through your palm It just doesn't go through right whereas in a dream, whatever you expect to happen will happen So if you expect and you're in a dream if you expect to push your finger through your hand and you expect it to go through It's gonna go through and you're gonna be able to say oh my fingers gone through my palm I must be dreaming and then hence you become lucid and away you go so what you do is You take that as your reality check pushing the finger through the palm That's your reality tech you do that 20 times a day every day without fail. Okay, and each time you do it You need to ask yourself am I dreaming so don't just do it and think oh, okay I'm trying to push my finger through my hand whatever you need to actually think I expect my fingers to go through my palm and Only when it doesn't only when you feel that resistance that feeling you get when you try and push it through and it doesn't go Even though you expect it to go through Only when it doesn't go through do you say oh, okay? Well, I must be awake then this is not doing But until that point assume that you're in a dream And what's gonna happen is after a while You're gonna be walking around your dream as you normally would and suddenly you'll find yourself doing that reality check In a dream and what will happen is your finger will go through and you'll think oh wow it actually went through So I must be dreaming you become lucid. That's how reality checks work The key with reality checks is expectation You need to really believe that what you're trying to do in this case the finger through the hand will happen Do that every time lots of people do reality checks and they don't do that. That's why they fail so Just take a little breather. I've had a bit of a cold today. So excuse my voice step three You're gonna meditate every morning and every evening The reason you're gonna meditate is because you need to be able to be more aware of yourself and of your surroundings Most of us walk through life on autopilot. We're not really aware and Concentrating on the things around us. We just focus on what we're trying to do Get to work make a make a meal talk to someone without being aware of everything around you The sounds the sights everything literally that is just filtered out by your your subconscious mind You need to start being more aware of that And you also need to start being more aware of your thoughts feelings and what's going on in your mind As well as your body and as well as everywhere around you the easiest way of doing that It's just to start meditating. I'm not going to explain how to meditate because I have other videos for that and this is a five minute tutorial on how to lose a dream. So Start meditating 10 minutes a day in the morning and 10 minutes a day in the evening 20 minutes a day total It's worth it. Trust me step four You're going to start doing reality checks as soon as you wake up Now The reason you do reality checks as soon as you wake up is because during the morning You're very likely to get what's called a false awakening Which is where you dream about waking up when you've not actually have woken up. You haven't actually woken up This is a very common time where you need to do reality checks because it's very likely to give you a lucid dream And that's it four steps go and do those and you will have a lucid dream guaranteed If you've liked this video, please subscribe And leave it a like if you also have a question for me Leave a comment because I try and read them all I try and reply to them all I try and make videos to answer your questions Also, if you haven't already check out my website how to lucid.com and I will see you next time
