How to Lucid Dream
with Brainwave Entrainment

The most powerful weapon in my lucid dreaming arsenal is brainwave entrainment.

The Lucid Dreaming MP3 can be used to induce deep states of meditation - ideal practice for lucid dreaming. Doing this with brainwave entrainment is much more powerful than without because it sends you into an altered state of awareness... within minutes.

I also find the Astral Projection MP3 helpful for inducing WILDs and OBEs. This recording is quicker to initiate feelings of physical disassociation for an OBE exit.

(If you're not familiar with acronyms, these are Wake Induced Lucid Dreams and Out of Body Experiences. Their induction techniques are described in detail here).

The Effects of Brainwave Entrainment

Listening to The Lucid Dreaming MP3 in a darkened room with no distractions, my mind goes quiet and focused and my whole body becomes relaxed. Within minutes, as the entrainment effect deepens, I then feel effects like:

• Deep physical relaxation
• Clarity of thought and a sense of inner peace
• Hypnagogia (seeing swirling colors and patterns)
• Feelings of floating above the bed
• Emerging dream scenes and lucid dreams

These are effects that can take months and years to achieve through the practice of regular mediation. The real value of brainwave entrainment is that it speeds up this process so you can experience altered states of awareness on tap.

Some people risk their health taking mind-altering drugs to shift away from reality like this. With brainwave entrainment, you can tap into your innate ability to alter your perception - completely naturally. It is a profound experience in and of itself.

However in this case, we're using entrainment to build new awareness skills for lucid dreaming. Your goal is to become acutely self-aware while meditating, enjoying a state of pure consciousness without any distractions from the outside world.

You'll also become better at falling asleep consciously which is the crux of the WILD technique (a really exciting way to induce lucid dreams on demand - you'll literally walk your mind into a lucid dream from a waking state).

Overall, this is a great meditation tool to improve your lucid dreaming skills, and I believe should be a cornerstone to your lucid dreaming practice.

How Does Brainwave Entrainment Work?

Brainwave entrainment has been scientifically proven to create measurable states of mental relaxation and meditation. It works using a frequency following response.

This is where your brainwave frequencies automatically synchronize with the frequencies heard through headphones. In turn this creates deeper states of awareness such as those experienced during meditation and dreaming.

I've been hypnotized by a professional twice and it felt nothing like this... Hypnosis is peanuts by comparison because it requires conscious focus.

Brainwave entrainment is an unconscious response. You do not have to think about it - the effect takes over as long as you are relaxed. As a result, it works every time, delivering you into an altered state of awareness in 8 minutes...

The Brainwave Map

Here's a map of the brainwave frequencies and their associated levels of conscious awareness. You experience most of these every day:

• Gamma (38-90 Hz)
  Highest form of lucid dreaming, heightened self awareness and insights.
  
  
• Beta (12-38 Hz)
  Waking consciousness, alert, analytical and focused.
  
  
• Alpha (8-12 Hz)
  Relaxation, creativity, whole brain functioning, calm.
  
  
• Theta (4-8 Hz)
  Dreaming, lucid dreaming, deep relaxation, meditation, creative inspiration.
  
  
• Delta (0.5-4 Hz)
  Deep sleep, unconscious mind, low blood pressure.

Brainwave entrainment allows you to enter any desired state of awareness on demand - safely, naturally and legally. There is nothing else like it known to man. There are different types of brainwave entrainment (binaural beats and isochronic tones, to name some classics) but they all use this same entrainment principle.

How to Lucid Dream with Brainwave Entrainment

1. Choose the right time of day to listen. Set your alarm clock one hour before you usually wake up then start listening to your brainwave entrainment. The Lucid Dreaming MP3 lasts for 45 minutes, giving you 15 minutes to fully refresh yourself afterwards.
   
   Another option is to listen in the afternoon, when you start to feel sleepy. There probably isn't a quiet enough environment to do this at work, so save your cat-nap-entrainment for weekends or days off. It's perfect for when you're feeling tired, frazzled, headachey, etc, as it gives you a peaceful environment to fully recharge your batteries.
   
   You can also listen in bed at night before you go to sleep. It's less likely you'll slip directly into a lucid dream (deep sleep usually comes before dream sleep at this point) but it is a great way to relax your mind and body if you have trouble getting to sleep. It's also perfectly good meditation practice to support your nightly lucid dream incubation.
   
   
2. Wear headphones and relax. This is crucial for listening to binaural beats - as explained above, different entrainment tones are played into each ear, so headphones (or earphones) are essential to creating the effect. Isochronic tones work a little differently and do not require headphones, but generally I prefer to anyway for better sound quality.
   
   Lastly, make sure you relax and allow the brainwave entrainment to work. Go into a darkened room, shut the door and don't allow any distractions - voices, phone calls, dogs, children, TV, etc, etc. This is your quiet time. Get as comfortable as you can lying down on the bed or couch before you switch on the recording. Once it begins, close your eyes and minimize fidgeting. If you have an itch, scratch it of course, but be aware that constant movement will prevent you from entering the trance state.

Now, enjoy! Some really cool things will happen when the entrainment kicks in...

You can download The Lucid Dreaming MP3 and get started immediately.

This is a really exciting point in your lucid development. You're going to rapidly evolve your abilities in meditation, self-awareness, and entering the dream state consciously. Listen often - at least weekly, and daily if you have the chance.

I started out using brainwave entrainment daily before getting up for work. Having that 45 minutes of meditation every day made me more relaxed and confident for the whole day - and opened the gateway to more lucid dreams as well.

I still use brainwave entrainment to this day to meditate and prime myself to have lucid dreams, both of the MILD and WILD variety. So give it a go without any risk: the store has a money-back guarantee if you're not happy. But I think, even from the first session, you'll be impressed by the effects of brainwave entrainment.
