 Alright today's question comes from our buddy Deepak and he says I would like to know something about lucid dreaming. I've experienced lucid dreams in the past But it's becoming difficult to concentrate while dreaming. It's like I become too conscious in the dream Which wakes me up. This didn't happen before but nowadays when I come to know that I'm dreaming I tend to wake up So can you suggest anything? Yes? Well, this is Not something I get asked a lot, but I can offer you some perspective with this When you begin to lucid dream often in the beginning stages you you become too excited and this This increased emotional engagement tends to wake you up because you're injecting your emotions You're becoming excited and very engaged with what's going on in the dream and this takes you to a Higher state of consciousness and you just you just wake up into completely. You just wake up and the dream ends so What I would invite you to do and I actually wrote a blog post about this before Called this cinema technique you can find this on my blog or try and find a link and put it in the description for you but the basic gist of it is to try and cultivate a sense of detached engagement from the dream so once you become Lucid and you realize that you're dreaming try to Slightly detached from it instead of becoming very emotionally charged and engaged with what you're doing Try and sort of step back a bit and realize that it's not real So although it might be exciting to you Try and at the same time be aware of the fact that it's a mental construct because if you become really engaged with it And you're really excited about flying over the mountain or you know having a giant fight with them with a dragon or something like that Then you're going to become swept away with the dream and you'll either lose lucidity or you'll go the other way You'll become too excited like you suggest and you'll wake up So try and be engaged with what you're doing and aware that it's a dream But at the same time detached and aware that it's not real and that you're not actually there So it's a bit of a it's a bit of a balancing act to get this to work and it all comes with practice, you know but Yeah, and there are sometimes where you when you'll want to be really engaged with it For example if you're doing something creative if you're writing a song or you're trying to create some sort of art Or get inspiration from the dream you'll want to have that that more engaged State in the dream you'll want to be very Focused and into what you're doing. So and one of the downsides to that is that it may wake you up, but in general, it's better to have sort of a Detached engagement with the dream. So you realize that you're dreaming, but you're not completely That to describe you're not completely In the dream with I'm hoping I hope this makes sense to you.
