 All right, what's up guys? I thought I'd just explain a bit about why I think you should have a balance between normal dreams and lucid dreams Because I think it's important, you know Just if you're gonna start learning this that you bear in mind that you don't have to lucid dream all the time, right? And I think it's important because not only will it tire you out But you'll also get a bit, you know tired of the idea of lucid dreaming you'll get tired of practicing the methods But more importantly than that, okay? You won't have the chance to experience normal dreams, and I think a really important part of the whole dreaming Scenario the whole ability to be able to dream is that you can look at your normal dreams and analyze them And while you can do that with lucid dreaming in real time You can't interact with the dream in the same way because you're affecting it, you know It's like you're you're controlling it. Obviously, that's what lucid dreaming is right You're being able to guide the dream in the direction you choose but by doing that you change the dream itself and Some would argue that that's you know Moving it from what it was going to be to what you're making it this is one of the paradoxes with time travel and one of the Main sort of I guess problems with lucid dreaming is that by doing it You're actually affecting the dream in a way that you're changing what would have happened naturally And when you do that you lose the ability to analyze what would naturally happen And instead you can only analyze what you Do essentially in what you do in a dream an example would be say if you were to dream about something chasing you like a dragon chasing you Right in a normal dream the dragon would chase you and then maybe it would lead you into a garden There'll be a maze or something and find a treasure chest and open the chest and then some sort of film inside and You can wake up and remember that and then analyze the dream signs for what they mean to you Whereas if you were lucid and you just were chased by a dragon and then said to the dragon stop chasing me Then you've changed the dream you then wouldn't go on and find that maze or that treasure chest and you would instead have an interaction with the dream and the dragon in our case and Some would argue that you know that you're by doing that you're losing the ability to analyze the dream For what it naturally would have been and instead you're controlling it So I think it's really important as lucid dream is that we have a balance right between normal dreams and lucid dreams You need to be able to analyze what your mind would naturally dream about what your subconscious mind would naturally Consolidate how it would consolidate your memories in deep sleep and how you would actually Have that experience be able to wake up and remember that dream that needs to be separate to the lucid dream Excited of things where you're in in the driver's seat and you're guiding the dream in the direction you would like it to go So it's very easy to do this as with new tropics you can cycle you can say okay Well, I'm gonna have five days off lucid dreaming and then two days on Obviously with new tropics. There are a type of smart drug you can take you typically take five days on and two days off But I think with lucid dreaming it's better or easier especially for beginners to have five days of normal dreams and Then two days of lucid dreams about that sort of ratio And I was recently invited to be a podcast guest on the dream show Which will be released very soon and this is one of the main points We talked about is that it's very important to have a balance between normal dreams and lucid dreams Even if you are an expert lucid dreamer and even if you know you want to have lucid dreams, right? it's still healthy and in a way I would argue better to have a balance so hopefully this has been helpful and I'll see you next time
