Forums IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ PhotoReading, Memory Optimizer fearing for my [dream] life

i did a search because i had heard you can get into the ALS before sleeping and ask for a dream on the material you PRed but didnt activate yet, and i stumbled across a bunch of posts mentioning freaky dreams...

now i'm fearing for my dream life!

i hope i dont have any bad dreams [they really **** me off, espescially the one where i woke up during REM as a child but couldn't actually wake up, i even remember conciously trying to open my eyes [of course with my mind, not my arms, lol] but i couldn't and was literally stuck in a bit of a nightmare

uh oh

bon nuit

You never have a dream you cannot handle. .

You probably had a few nightmares as a kid. Most have at one time or other had their parents check under the bed for monsters or better (to them) learnt to sleep with a light on. Somehow we survived.

If you do program for a dream, make sure you record it. It is the failure to do so that makes dreams seem more freakly or weird. It's the minds way of going, hey you asked for it and now you're not paying attention, so I'll make it so you notice it.

In all even freaky dreams are more fun than a school test. Some dreamers have found their dreams worth their weight in gold. Frankenstein's Monster was a freaky dream don't you think?

If you don't want freaky dreams tell yourself as part of the dream programing that you will wake up easily if the dream becomes too creepy.

If you do happen to wake up with night paralysis just concentrate on wiggling your little finger and only your little finger. It will move in a matter of second and the paralysis will be gone.

To me, "bad dreams" come in two types. Nightmares, which are fun in the way haunted houses or scary movies are fun (eustress), and annoying dreams - such as being at work or the infamous "final exam and you never even showed up for class" dream (distress).

Strangely enough, PhotoReading has had a profound effect on the dreams that are normally distressful. For example, showing up on the last day of class but intuitively knowing the answers, showing up on the FIRST day of class and being eager to learn, or once actually TEACHING the class how to make mind-maps.

When I do have a distressing nightmare, such as being in the same room with the sociopath who tried to drive me to suicide for her own perverse pleasure, I take it as motivation to actually DO something about it. There's a way of discribing troublesome problems: "it's not worth loosing sleep over." To me, a nightmare is my way of telling myself, "Oh yes it is!"

As far as the thing about dying in your dreams goes, I've died plenty of times. Once I went to Hell, but God showed up looking absolutely beautiful in a red dress and driving a red 1957 Chevy, and she drove me and my buddy to heaven. Once I even had the falling dream, and crash-landed. I was all mangled and even dead, but I could still move. Didn't even hurt much.

really? i heard somewhere that if you hit the bottom you'd have a heart attack

how did you start falling anyways...If people like you people can control their dreams, in ways such as where you can wiggle a little finger if you want to wake up( I can never even do that because I dont know im dreaming!) then why would you make yourself be falling?

And does anyone have a link to things about this. Before I try and get into it I would probably want to read about any risks....people on here say that they have died in their dreams and lived, but if they are saying that there must be another group of people saying that dying in dreams and hitting the ground when falling can kill you or give you a heart attack or something...

Who managed to ask someone who had a falling dream and died what they were dreaming before they died?

In the case of a heart attack... body caused the dream of falling not the dream caused the heart attack. In other words the body triggered the dream. The falling sensation is often associated with a sudden drop in body temperature.

Now mankind has been dreaming for eons and looking at the population it doesn't appear to be that detrimental. Afterall many more can cite helpful information coming from fearful dreams. The reason some of our dreams are scary is so that we will remember them when we wake up. If you develop the habit of recalling your dreams and decoding them you need less fearful dreams to trigger recall.

Dreams that result from reading are your own imagination. When you consider the monsters created for movies not only has the storyline been imprinted on your mind. Vivid images that you may not have created using your own imagination have been planted there. You choose what you watch, you choose what you read and believe it or not you can control your dreams.

Try using a www search engine if you want to know more about dreams.
