Lucid dreaming techniques, Stephen LaBerge 

I can't describe!!!! I was struggling with lucid dreaming for 2 years and now , yesterday I performed wild and I did it!!!!!!!!! AGGHHHH

Seth said it well "Your dreaming life is the other side of your waking life and your Waking life is the other side of your dreaming life". When go to sleep in the physical, you are waking up in the nonphysical and vice versa. Your job, our job is to integrate them completely so you will have total clarity.

He's mentioning Frederik Van Eeden here, a Dutch writer and researcher who developed the term Lucide Dreaming, early 1900's. He was at the forefront of scientific research regarding this matter. He determined that one of the core points of lucide dreaming are; 1) being able to direct the attention consciously within a dream 2) having access to memorie 3) ability for targeted behaviour 4) dream reality testing (as in reflecting like "this is not posible"). In normal dreaming there's no reflection on or reality testing of the content. 5) and having acces to cognitive activities like counting or reading etc Who or what is it thats dreaming? You could call it a dream-ego. Consciousness can also be aware of this sub-ego within the dream witch makes you the detached observer (see point 4).

I happened to attend his workshop at Stanford U. back in the summer of '99. Fascinating. I've never been able to successfully condition myself to have regular lucid dreams, even with the techniques he's prescribed though on the rare occasions I do have them, they're a real gas!

Feels so overwhelmed..while listening all this.. this guy is same as me..it's like..he knows how I feel in lucid dreams

Accept the darkness they only need love, the polarities shedding.. This happened in the waking for me , i had fear which dissolved after that. All inclusive Non-dualistic oneness. I'm so Glad i was reminded of this.Thank you

This is awesome hearing a guy as qualified as him talk about this subject

I find it very interesting that the significant experience he described sounds very similar to many people’s DMT/Psychedelic experiences.. That idea of oneness and simply being a point of awareness with an overwhelming sense of love

Congratulations! And thank you for who ever uploaded this, incredible food for thought.

I have been spinning in dreams for last month. Just tracked down this guy. Seems like it's a technique to. Stay lucid. Odd that a part of me knew this whilst conscious part of me didn't know.

I don't know much about lucid dreams however all my life I've had premonitions that have all come to pass....One particular night I had a dream that I was at the bottom of a grave looking up and I felt as if a soul was being lifted out of it ....as I was lifting out I saw at the top a small gray coffin with white roses on it and a former girlfriend that I had no contact with in over a year and people I didn't know ...strangely it was around Thanksgiving time like now ....I saw her crying and felt her pain and then I sat up in a sweat thinking this was real ....I never really have nightmares like this .....Some weeks later I sat at my desk and said to myself ...I have to know ....but she is going to think I'm crazy .....I was compelled to call ....She answered the phone in a very small sickly voice ....Hi Brian ....I asked her if she was ok and she said she wasn't ....I told her that I had a dream about her ....she said to tell her...so I proceeded to tell her what I just wrote then when I said said a small gray coffin ...she stopped me and in her accent said Brian ,...how do you know this ? I told her it what I saw that night ....she was very frail so I didn't press her as I asked questions ....She said she didn't want to talk about it ....but she did say ...On that night a child did die and I almost died that day .....with that I said that if she needed anything I'm here for her and that I would pray for her.... My take on this is that we were still very connected and I felt and heard her extreme pain and cry out for help like an entangled particle ...as if I was her .

some of what Stephen is saying reminds me of things, that Ramanah Maharshi said about the different states... he said he was always conscious in waking, sleeping and dreaming..

back to the future :)

I've had a few crazy experiences with this. Probably one of the more popular topics on my channel. People are waking up to this! Great video!

Absolutely spot on! Very, very true. This is the Integration Work on our Shadow, work on un-develing the devil, work on a fine differentiation of feelings, on growing the conscience which is objective and beyond any kind of morality. Also relevant in Jungian way to integration. Only those who experienced this can recognise it and understand it.

Stephen, I love your work and appreciate every one of your insights. They've helped me tremendously in the past, and I expect them to continue. You're the best! That being said, if you ever want to change your profession, you could make very good money being a Jeff Goldblum impersonator. Thanks again for all the great work!

I had vivid lucid dreaming for 8 years. spanning from first puberty til age 22. it was accompanied by 2 times Astral projection, lucid/night terrors/sleep paralysis. a few years back, I discovered a none visual dream that lasted 15 minutes but it seemed to last for a few hours. someone spoke Latin there. I have never learned Latin. And just 3 days ago, had a recent lucid, about a upcoming rainstorm. I don't watch TV or news. it maybe a coincidence, but later that day, it started to light rain.

Where are the techniques?

I remember when I listened to Stevens lucid dream tapes on CD when I was a teenager. Jeez, that was almost 20 yrs ago.

What a brilliant mind! Learn much from this wiseman!

YES YES YES!!!!!. I found myself in this space that seem "empty" of everything. However I noticed that I didn't seem to have a body. It dawned on me that I was pure consciousness. I was so blissfully happy that it felt like an explosion of the heart chakra...but I had no form...I had the thought...."maybe this is what the Buddhist call Emptiness!" I seemed to be in this black Void (for lack of a better word) that was empty of every form but totally filled...with unconditional LOVE!!! I have never felt Love at this level before! I found myself traveling all over the place. It felt like I (my consciousness ) was moving very quickly....and then I began to see tiny white lights. Spirits? angels? orbs? I didn't want to return...but I did....

I lear it as a child. because i had bad dreams so one time i just turn my bad dreams in to comedy) thats how i learn it. All you have to do is ask question am i dreaming. Its still alot to find

looks like he hasnt been sleeping

A meditation technique- Sit on the Earth- Lotus- close eyes- breathe- watch thought-breathe- Allow thoughts to float by like clouds moving across a still sky- breath- thoughts will tempt you to play- watch- breathe. When the dog on the curb sees the ball bounce by it gives chase and loses itself over&over&over&over&over&over again&again&again then goes to sleep is already asleep has always been. If the dog watches the ball bounce by and breathes- another more beautiful ball will bounce by and the dog watches and breathes more amazing secrets will reveal to the one who no longer wants to own but understand. The hunter must be so still for even hunger will give away their presence to their quarry- especially when it is their own reflection they hunt which will change right before the astonished eye. This is how Siddhartha found the Buddha within. a weakness of loneliness grows into the strength of total aloneness then you are everyone. What is the sound of one hand clapping?- When the observer and the ... become ... !

wow, I really enjoyed this talk, thank you for sharing

I love this explanation. This is so incredibly deep, it’s inspiring and captivating. Shadow work. NOW I get it 🤯

Its come full circle - here's a man at the top of his craft Scientifically speaking and he's telling us the same thing the Shamans, Llama's, Sufi's and mystics have for generations! This* day is many things its also very beautiful!

I have read both of his books. They were both coherent, Listening to him now I consider his is losing it. Heading towards a mental break down.

If I get attacked by a monster of some sort in a dream, I usually start Lucid dreaming and beat it up myself. Whether its with some neat power or my bare hands, I always win.

I had a fight with Darth Vader last night. Trust me... he is - I am... relentless

Hey i was wondering how come when i can control my dream that im still limited to my abilities? I mean i can fly, lift cars and control things but yet when i want to shoot energy beams from my hands or lasers from my eyes i can't? I can manipulate people and morph into anything in my dreams yet i cannot shoot a kamehameha blast like Goku?

Where's the technique? Is this an infomercial?

Those are hard techniques he's talking about.. When you aware that you are dreaming and the next thing is to meditate? Lol good luck with that. Thats not how you do it

Lucid dream seems a projection, how to transfer directly to OBE?

this title is extremely misleading though. this has nothing to do with techniques.... maybe he went on a rampage and you never got the answer lol, but why say the video is about lucid dreaming techniques when its not?

Sounds like what Jung said in his Archytype and Collective Unconsciousness.The Mandara thing...

Love this, Charley Morley talks about lucid dreaming as training for the after-death bardo state. I make videos on how to lucid dream on this channel and my favorite way to do it is the WILD (wake initiated lucid dream) way. Meditating into the dream from the conscious awake state and witnessing all the beautiful hypnagogic colors. Also, reality checks throughout the day can help for becoming aware within an already existing dream which I just made a video on a few weeks ago :)

I had a question if someone could answer. For categorizing dreamsigns, in any given dream dream sign, do you only list it once for all the times something weird happens like for example inner awareness. Every time I have weird thought or feeling in a given dream, do I just list it once or once for every weird thought or feeling in that dream?

I like how he put Police in the category of "Undesirables" lol.

And the techniques? It was all very interesting. But techniques? Where are they?

He looks like Dr Earnhardt from Far Cry 3

How I learned was tales from the crypt character haunted me until one day I confronted him and told him how it was... ever since I could control my dreams

Going to try this

love your book Stephen! ;)

Looks like Jordan Peterson 20 years into the future

i read 2 books of him and i believe in lucid dreams and (parallel universe and all that stuff) BUT. if he's honest - he must be really insane.

When I try I don’t remember any dream but somebody around me has a nightmare “About Me” 🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️

Acceptance... great nugget

I need the drug this guy takes. It's free but requires practice. I can relate to all which he speaks of. Damn! I could listen to him all day!

Cuando no vivas en la confusión de la ilusión colectiva e indeterminada, luego empezarás a saber, … quien eres tu Tu voz Interior, siempre estuvo ahí Siempre que hables con una persona, oirás de ella, lo que ella dice, entonces que pretendes cuando hablas con alguien ? Siempre que necesites de alguien, estarás sometido a sus razonamientos Entonces sabiendo esto, porque buscas fuera aquello que está en ti, y que dices no saberlo ? A fuera, las palabras son interminables, dentro de ti y en cada momento, solo hay una sola palabra, entonces, cuando la percibas, … Cógela, y Úsala

This guy is so cool! Carl Jung would have loved him!

Any of you guys have any tips? I have been trying for 3 years, gave up for a while and tried again a few months ago and gave up yet again. I have no idea what I did wrong or how I should do it. So someone please help me

I still wine of his original working Nova Dreamers

Really nice. Thanks!

i get what hes saying about the demons... but ive ran into weird figures that were literally waiting for me on the other side of sleep....but i guess i never found out if they were bad or not...but i felt like they were going to steal my soul for some reason.

after watching Inception I started researching what is LD

does he discuss about the techniques for lucid dreaming anywhere in the vlog?

My lucid dreams feel like a computer virus--I am in the middle of flashes of random memories flashing flashing by--I can hear or seem them go by--and then see family or friends and detail of what i suspect they have lived already--their old trauma memories--and always somehow trying to run away from someone evil or bad trying to use my energy to fuel their existence. Other times my whole dreams are about keeping happy high vibrations to float from natural disasters or other dangers--I flat to safety and come down to danger and constantly trying to rise back up to a floating safe place! WHAT DO THIS MEAN? ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED> !

It's funny how back then there was no magic bullet method and people had these arguments about which method was the best and today you have people watching these old videos and reading forums from the early 2000s and think it's still 2005 or 2015 or something and they get stuck and don't know what to do and they kind of give up thinking we haven't advanced (like a lightyear) and it's still hard or something and they keep trying these obsolete methods that literally no one uses any more. Why don't these old videos get deleted? It's weird having them around, it's not misinfo but still misleading cuz it's old and outdated but people somehow ignore this and watch them as if they were like the latest gospel or something, it's surreal.

What is the age of Stephan Labege ?

MILD is the best.But, I experienced sleep paralysis on the second day.

Can anyone help me?... i got visions of my past life sometime and like i did that again!!!! Which heppened in past allready!so what is this can anyone tell me?

Thanks Stephen!

Is it possible to dream within a dream and does your brain compute faster while dreaming?

11:22 this is a plenum

I just think that was great facts don't worry about the haters the information u have shared is most true everone has there own view so by saying that do what u do if not in this living we shall meet in the next im on plantet k i am not able to give out the name its up to you to journey your way and if all is well we shall meet.may the forces be with u

I don t analize or , , there is nothing to inteprete. I see e x a c t l y what is going on. For I am doing it. It s like I go to a 'night job'. Sometimes in the journey, I wonder if I will awaken before a particular task is complete. I When I 'awake', I am brought off task and returned to the present.

From the age of about 8 ish ... I knew I could control my dreams.....I’m 48 now guess what .....I know when I. Dreaming and yes ... I can control them...and yes I know and feel my surroundings

Has your dream state changed since corona virus time period?

There's a lot of hand-work going on. It's distracting.

Βάλτε κάποιος ελληνικούς υπότιτλους σε αυτά τα βίντεο ,πρόκειται για πολύ ενδιαφέρον θέμα.

I wonder if when I change the rhythm of my breathing in a lucid dreaming does it physically change or it is just a dream breathing:?

⁉🍄Are you guys sure he's talking about lucid dreams and not psychedelics? Because shrooms produce exactly these effects without any efforts and sleepless nights.

Any1 can ID the music used in the beginning?

Hmm. Not sure about accepting and inviting the demons.. Just because something is part of us it doesn't mean it's good.

"Monsters need love too" - my love life in four words...Hah!!

I fucking love this guy.

why does he look like he has insomnia lol

Did you dream you were a wizard and could fly about??

I had this kind of experience :/

I’m having a lucid dream right now so I better make friends with the Donald Trump within. 😎

i wonder if he's on shrooms.

just knowing the base of your mind is not equal to being a buddha guys. chill. you just know the direct, or secret or perfect technique however you wanna call it. then you have to stabilize yourself in it, and even after you are perfectly stable, you are still not a Buddha.

Jordan Peterson but lucid dreamer.

Dont fool your self with lucid dreams, it is whish-thinking. Get a good nights sleep. Your Eternal Body-structure is Not a toy.

damn though. The bags under his eyes!

I luh you Stephen!!

i jell with this view of turning enemies to allies-the devils horns are but an incomplete halo- Das Energi- the book! My thorns are the opportunistic predatory world and the communication that lacks connection. Either too hot or too cold to be able to say " I'm so happy to be alive and to rise to this occasion- my Life."

hehehe good one Stephen mulla nasrudin jeha :-)

At 12:17 I became a different being...

maybe he's preforming mudras or he's part Italian

horrible monsters need love too !

none: a la berge

חיכיתי לטכניקות שהובטחו בכותרת...

What on earth is he talking about? hes just rambling on, get to the point, get a hold of yourself man!

D r e a m s . Ha! The Hollywood people got time travel all wrong! I 'DreamJourney' to the past a n d the future and participate directly in the changing of it!!! All the time! I go, see me 'sleeping and during journey, sleep too.

Just wonderful, I have been researching "lucid dreaming 3 steps" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Nonictoria Zaniam Eradicator - (do a google search ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my mate got cool results with it.

TOO much talk and zero techniques

he looks sleep deprived...

A mumbler. Shame there's no subtitles.
