The Rich Life You Lead While Dreaming

Because many of you have become as interested as I am about the state of dreaming, this awesome piece from RealitySeeds.com will whet your appetite, as it argues we should be, considering the time we spend asleep -- about a third of our lives. For the average 30-year-old adult, that's close to 10 years of living in your dreams.

In fact, the state of dreaming, arguably, can be viewed as the ultimate form of meditation that shuts down the conscious world from our everyday distractions and allows us to take a daily peak into our subconscious. And, what better to gain waking access to these imbedded insights than to learn how to remember your dreams. Some ways to do just that:

  • Maintain a dream journal.
  • Program your subconscious, not unlike the learned art of lucid dreaming.
  • Don't give up!

Before you take on better dreaming, however, it's wise to ensure your good health first and getting the right amount of sleep is one of the best things you can do to protect it.

In Japan, there is a tradition which says the first dream of the new year is prophetic. Even so, when I ask around, I am amazed at how few people can remember their dreams. What a waste of one third of a life! I'm busy a lot of the time, but at the new year, for the first three days I write every dream down in detail. I think I should do this more often. It's amazing what kinds of insights this provides.

I have been keeping a dream journal for almost a year now, since February and I have remembered my dreams tenfold compared how I used to remember them.  Several times I remember four to six dreams a night, but on average it's more in the two to three per night range.  It gives me direct insight into my subconscious mind, as well as allows me to break free in a world I do not completely understand.  I have had a few lucid dreams as well and they were amazing.  Dreaming and sleeping represents one third of your life.  Make the most of it by at least remembering what you dreamt.

I rarely remember my dreams and when I do, they just seem silly.  Maybe if I took them a little more seriously, I would remember more of them.  I also remember ready about a vitamin that will cause you to remember your dreams better.  Does anyone know which vitamin that is?

I think that every experience is filed away in the mind. The more relaxed you are (as in sleep) the easier to retrieve these files. The converse is when you are awake, and under stress, and find things difficult to remember, like when you go to introduce someone you have known for years, and you freeze up.

During sleep I think you have more resources available to your mind (and fewer distractions) to allow you to work out things,and perhaps there's more of a free flow of thought. You can float above the ground, and your brain doesn't jolt you awake protesting the impossibility.
