You may question what does meditation have to do with having lucid dreams? Well, meditation results in greater mindfulness, this fits hand-in-hand with many of the other lucid dreaming practices.
I’ll give you an example; the act of meditation forms part of the Mnemonic Induction of Lucid Dream (MILD) and Wake Induced Lucid Dream (WILD) techniques. This is great for improving your in-dream skills such as visualisation (used for changing the world around you) and inducing stronger states of awareness (used for prolonging your lucid dreams).
This is backed by scientific studies and evidence. It has been proven that there are direct links between meditation and lucid dreaming. Both of these practices involve creating higher states of awareness (up to the gamma band/ 40 Hz) and help you to become more habitually focused, self aware and reflective. These improve your ability to remember dreams, visualization skills and your ability to automatically induce lucid dreams. Just practising a simple breathing meditation exercise every day will help you achieve profound relaxation and it will help to increase your chances of having lucid dreams.
Meditation can also improve many other aspects of your life, for example:
Relaxation and stress relief
Concentration and learning
Altered states of awareness
Encouraging abstract thought
The process of a focused meditation – for example, putting all of your mental energy into achieving one specific goal – can help you achieve personal and physical success in all areas of your life.
“Meditation is my soul’s soundless conversation with my inner pilot.”
Sri Chinmoy
What is Meditation?
People have been practicing meditation in one form or another for more than 5,000 years. It has been a strong component of almost every world religion. However that does not mean you have to be religious in order to meditate.
The science of meditating stems from psychophysiology – this is a branch of psychology that studies the effect of the mind on the body, think mind over matter. In order to meditate for the reason of helping you to lucid dream you have to develop two opposite skills:
Focus – a higher degree of mental concentration
Quiescence – a quiet stillness of the mind
As I’ve said before; you don’t have to convert to a religion, seclude yourself from modern life or even become a Buddhist Monk to be good at meditation. I will show you two simple routines that will help you to begin your meditation journey. The first is breathing this helps to calm the mind, the second is Guided Meditation which helps to focus the mind. Both can be very enjoyable experiences and you may often find yourself meditating just to escape the every day hustle and bustle of modern life.
You can perform these meditation exercises unaided, or with the help of brainwave entrainment. Check out these recommended brainwave entrainment audios for extra support.
Breathing Meditation – to Calm Your Mind
First things first, you need to find a nice quite place to settle down. You can sit cross legged like traditional Buddhist monks or you can sit in a chair. The key thing here is not how you sit as long as you keep your back straight, this stops your mind from becoming sleepy.
Once you’re sitting comfortably and straight, just allow your eyes to close naturally and then mentally focus on your breathing, without actually trying to control it. Breathe in and out through the nostrils and try to become aware of how the air feels as it enters and leaves your body.
At first, your mind will be running flat out with everyday passing thoughts and it may even feel as though you’re over thinking more than usual. This is normal and its because you are increasing your self awareness, you’re able to notice how many thoughts you really have. The tricky part now is to make sure you avoid the temptation of following your thoughts as they pop up. You need to stay focused on your breathing, focus on the air going in and out of your nose.
If you do start to realize that your mind has wandered, just refocus on your breathing to bring it back. After 10-15 minutes of focusing like this you should achieve a quiet state of mind. Your thoughts will be clear and lucid, like an ocean whose waves have gotten calmer and no longer rock passing ships. Once you are within that state of mind you can remain like that for as long as feels comfortable.
Try and practice this breathing meditation every day. You can do it either when you wake up or before you go to sleep, you can even do it during your lunch break. By doing it half way through the day I find that I gain the most from taking time out of busy periods. It’s also great at removing built up anxiety: slow, deep breaths helps combat your body’s adrenaline response when stress is present.
Guided Meditation – to Focus Your Mind
Again choose a quiet place to meditate and sit comfortably with your back straight. Focus on your breathing as before and allow your eyes to close naturally. You are now going to increase your self awareness and mentally detach yourself from your physical body.
I want you to imagine that you are walking through a beautiful and peaceful garden. It is natural grown over and wild with a never-ending path upon which you are following. You feel the clean air entering your lungs, and observe the tranquil environment around you.
The aim here is to use your visualization skills and imagination to increase your awareness of this landscape that’s built up within your mind while letting go of everyday thoughts and anxieties. Listen closely to the peaceful silence. You may start to hear birds singing or the soft pitter patter of raindrops. Remember this is about imagination and visualisation so the stronger the mental imagery, the better.
Feel the texture of the grass under your bare feet, is it dry, damp or warm? Take a moment to touch the flowers and feel the air breeze past you. Make every movement slow and deliberate. Take as long as you like to explore your tranquil garden.
It may help you focus if you continue walking at all times, this is so that the scenery is constantly changing and prevents over thoughts from entering your mind. Walk down a gentle slope in your garden and this will mirror the action of your consciousness going deeper.
On average it takes about 15 minutes to enter a deep trance-like state, with little awareness of your physical body. Once you have entered this state remain there as long as you want – there is no time limit on your meditation experience or your imagination.
Once you are done, gently rouse yourself from the trance by counting backwards from five to one, take deep breaths as you do. Before you open your eyes, just give yourself a few moments to acclimatize and gather your thoughts.
These self guided exercises are great for increasing self awareness and allowing your mind to focus without the normal every day distractions. You may change the scenery every time you practice the guided routine – you can make up your own inner worlds, but remember that they are there to promote calm relaxation and vivid mental imagery.
