What is Lucid dreaming?
Generally, when we dream we are not aware of the fact that our dream is not reality. We are not conscious enough to think and decide about the dream and reality. It’s only when we woke up, we realize that it was a dream. However, many people experience that they were aware that they are in a dream while they were dreaming. You might have also experienced that sometime in the past. Some people were also able to control some parts of the dream This is called lucid dreaming.

There are many methods but we are going to discuss a very simple method to lucid dream- WILD (wake-induced lucid dream).
There are four steps that you have to follow-

You can do this when you normally go to sleep or after getting up after 5-6 hours of sleep.
You simply have to relax. This step is very simple but very important.
2- Once you are relaxed, observe the darkness behind your eyes. Anything that appears before your eyes, try to follow it. Just stay calm and observe everything, letting your mind wander about.
3) Build your dream.
Once you reach that state, start building your dream in your way.
Start visualizing things. Visualize even the smallest details of your visuals to increase your visual awareness.
4- Reaching the state where your body is asleep, but your mind is still awake! You have to enter into an aware dreaming state from a waking state. This is the final stage of Lucid dreaming.
