A Short Story : The Story Of A Lucid Dream

For many centuries, people would think of dreaming as curses or blessings that we can not fend off or operate. Lucid dreaming, a dream in which a dreamer is aware that he or she is dreaming; they may be able to control the dream by exert amount. In this dream stage, we perform superhuman features that would be impossible when we’re awake. While a person dreams, these wonderful things become a temporality reality. Researchers says that a average person dreams four to six times a night(insert). Many people dream every night without even realizing that their dreams can be controlled. Others might not give too much care about the dreams that they might experienced. Lucid dreaming can turn scary dreams into happy dreams, or happy dreams into more relaxed ones. This method of dreaming can provide the dreamer endless ways to control their subconscious which can provide enjoyable experiences.

The purpose of this study was to see if political views or your personal background has anything to do with the types of dreams that you have. There were women and men that participated, by personal or internet surveys. The questions were asking general questions like age and race and the types and the frequency of your dreams. There were 700 people to do the interviews and the researchers chose the liberal and conservative men and women. There were 234 participants in total, conservative and liberal men and women, more liberalism. One of the reasons for this research was how your dreams were based off things that were important to you in real life. There are four sets of sleeping, which are general sleeping, Frequency of Memorable Dreams and

There are many facts that are unknown about the mind. For centuries, philosophers and scientists have tried to understand how it works. We have learned that the mind has a number of different levels of processing. Before Sigmund Freud “nearly all the previous research and theorizing of psychologists had dealt with conscious, such as perception, memory, judgment, and learning“ (Hunt185). Freud brought forth a number of theories that dealt with “the unconscious and its crucial role in human behavior”(Hunt 185). The unconscious is a storage area for information that is not being used. It is also the home of “powerful primitive drives and forbidden wishes that constantly generated pressure on the conscious mind”(Hunt

“Though dreams can be deceiving…they serve for sweet relieving when fantasy and reality lie too far apart,” said singer Fiona Apple, referring to how one almost always feels disappointed when waking up from an exciting dream. Dreams help escape reality, when what one wants, “fantasy,” is too far-fetched to achieve in real life. Escaping reality also helps when one’s life is not as satisfying as they would like it to be. Either they wish to be different, or they wish for the world around them to be. Anything can be done in dreams, but they are never permanent. They always come to an end, and they seem so lucid when the dreamer is actually dreaming that they forget entirely what real life is made of, making them disappointed and frustrated in

The following paper analyzes a psychology journal that examined the results of a clinical study seeking to teach lucid dreaming, in partnership with gestalt therapy, as an additional tool for dealing with nightmares. B. Holzinger, G. Klosch, and B. Saletu define lucid dreaming as a learnable skill with in which the nightmare sufferer learns about dream awareness techniques, providing them with a means of control when experiencing nightmares (p. 355). In association, Gestalt therapy is defined as a conscious confrontation of nightmare images in a therapy setting, often by role-playing. The argument is made that

Sometimes, your dreams are memories, the kind you spend every waking hour repressing, because you’ve seen what happens to people who don’t; seen them crumble and fall apart beneath the pressure of constant grief, seen the empty shells that are left behind. So, you push them back into the deepest, darkest and most hidden parts of their mind. Yet, you find yourself resenting your own mind as they seep through the cracks, unrelenting and unforgiving, to haunt you in your most vulnerable hours.

Once you feel yourself in a dream, say aloud “I’m dreaming” and you’re free to do as you please. Try flying, or doing something you can’t usually do.

I’ve always had a wild imagination. Every time I fell asleep, magical visions filled my head such as delicate fairies fluttering in a forest or evil dementors sucking up happiness. But when morning came, my fantasies ended and left me with fragmental memories of my dreams.

I’m trapped. I can’t move. I’m stuck in between being awake and asleep. I think I’m having a lucid dream. I start going into sleep paralysis. I feel this weight on my chest and it is getting harder to breath. It feels like something is squeezing my neck and stomping on the chest. My dream started off weirdly joyful. I was sitting on the beach, staring at the sunset. Listening to the waves crash and the seagulls flying over my head. I was enjoying myself looking at the ocean, but I could still feel the weight on my chest and the hands around my throat. I suddenly fell into darkness. I was surrounded by screaming. I felt like I was falling off of a cliff. I tried to open my eyes but I couldn’t. I then feel a crash. A loud bang. That was the sound

Lucid dreams are phenomena where the dreamer is conscious of dreaming and controls the dream to bend the events to their liking. I have had a few of these as well. I prefer lucid dreams rather than sleep terrors due to the control you have over lucid dreams, sleep paralysis represents the loss of control as you can do nothing but observe and feel. One of my lucid dreams occurred in 4th grade when I dreamt of being on a playground and then I realized I was dreaming and was able to bend the fabric of everything in the dream and could fly, I was a god amoungst peasants who couldn't do a quarter of what I could. I felt empowered and in control, a feeling that was foreign to a younger me and still is to a more updated and senior me. I don't have many dreams anymore, and in many ways, it would seem as if my life lost the magic it had a little too early. I knew that my life had taken a turn down a more miserable path when these dreams that I looked forward to every night stopped coming and night terrors ensued as their replacement. I never felt so awful, I woke up to a hell I hated and went to sleep only to be tortured. It didn't feel like it was worth the effort to continue caring anymore. I still prefer lucid dreams and long to have them reincorporated into my life, it has yet to happen but I'm sure if im

Lucid Dreaming is an important research findings in psychology today because it shows how much your conscious mind is capable of during sleeping. Reasons that support this includes, reducing nightmares, having control over your consciousness, and being able to make sleeping

Trauma is something about 70% of Americans experience in their lifetime. How does it change the way our dreams structure themselves, or the intensity of images we see? Trauma can directly affect dreams, but how exactly it does affect dreams is what I’ll be exploring today. The purpose of this essay is to embark on a journey learning about trauma, dreams, and other things relating to it. Trauma can be seen to have a direct relationship dreams, and discovering that is the purpose of this paper.

I jolted awake in fear. I had a dream. A weird dream. A vivid dream. It was full of people shouting and bright flashes of light. It was confusing yet clear, like some part of me understood it. I didn’t know it would be important then but now I know. How? Well, it happened like this…
