If the world of dreams fascinate you enough. You can start an altogether different journey with me - of aligning your dreams with your life purpose. Your dreams is the reflection of your subconscious which has immense power to make anything possible. A lot of self books have claimed that thoughts have the power to make your dreams turn into reality. I believe that your dreams have the ability to transform your thinking into reality.
I'll try to open an entirely new world for you where you can train your mind while you're asleep and reap the benefits in real life. Would you like to embark on this journey which requires immense dedication towards your desires, faith on the power of your mind/dreams and mental discipline?
With each post, we'll reach a new level of understanding our mind and explore it to the maximum.
Here's starting this journey:
Step one
If you haven't tried to understand the world of dreams yet. Now is the time. As mentioned in many stuff and studies about dreams, maintaining a dream journal helps. For beginners, this will help create a discipline.
Dream journal will help you understand how your mind works. For about a week/fortnight (depending upon how fast you understand the working of your mind), note down in detail about the dreams you see. Some dreams will be like scattered pieces and the others will be like a movie or serial. After a week or so, you'll get to know the basic theme of your dreams. It's up to you to discover the pattern. Your mind might be naughty, imaginative, fearful or all of that.
Breaking the negative patterns
Write down the negative patterns of your dreams at the end of the time period you have set for yourself. Also write down the positive/feel good patterns of your dreams.
Now think for some time about what is the theme of that negative pattern in your dreams. Is it fear, confusion, indecisiveness, helplessness, guilt, stress or burden. You'd be surprised to notice that the emotion governing your dreams is also subconsciously governing your life. It's just that you are too busy to notice. Now it's the time to focus on those negative patterns.
How?
Simple. You figured out this problem in your dreams, right? So it's solution also lies in your dreams. The next time you dream something negative (horror, stressful, uneasy, uncomfortable), be aware that you are dreaming. Ask yourself is this problem big enough to bother you. Why this dream is making you so uncomfortable?
While dreaming you have an advantage of having the support of subconscious mind with you. You can heal yourself faster during this state. Get your mind out of this situation. For example, if you are dreaming that you are not able to find your way to an important desination, don't get hassled. Instead, think strongly that you have to reach that place at any cost. You'd be surprised that by just injecting this thought into your mind at that point of time, situation in your dreams will change. You'll get the solution immediately and that confusion will disappear.
Now you wake up in the morning, and think about the previous night's dream. Now think about the real problem in your life. You might be avoiding the problem or not finding an appropriate solution in real life. You'd be surprised to know that the healing that you gave yourself in the dream will help solve your real life problem as well.
Your subconsious mind will force you to tackle the problem and you'll get rid of it in no time. Amazed? Such is the power of our mind and such is the power of our dreams.
Try this out once and I'll be back in no time to serve another post for you. Till then, happy dreaming!
