As I have already researched the basics of lucid dreaming, the next step was to learn how to participate in it. I searched "How to lucid dream for beginners" and I chose this site because of its dedication to lucid dreaming. According to this article, there are five steps every beginner should know before attempting to lucid dream. The first step is to improve your dream recall. What this means is that you repeat to yourself throughout the day that you will remember your dreams. What this will accomplish is your determination to complete this task later that night. They encourage you to start recording all your dreams in a journal so that you can go back and remember what your dreams were like. Personally, I feel like this is a very simple step that would get you on the right path towards lucid dreaming. The second step is to perform reality checks, to remind yourself every day that this is real life so that while you're dreaming, you can comprehend that it is a dream. Again, another simple task that you can do at any time during the day. The third step is to learn how to meditate. I don't believe that this is a necessary step in the process of lucid dreaming because it can sometimes cause hallucinations and be a potentially dangerous. Step four is to study lucid dreaming. This will help you understand the process in a more detailed way and help you to becoming a regular lucid dreamer. The last step that is listed in this article is to use technology to help induce a lucid dream. I wouldn't try this only because I don't fully understand the outcomes of using technology and it could owe a possible threat to me. Overall I believe this article helped explain some basic techniques that someone could use to induce a lucid dream. However, I do not believe that this article was detailed enough to be extremely helpful to a beginner who just wants to experience one lucid dream.
I thought this was a cute any funny picture depicting a person's thought process during their first lucid dream (:
