Lucid dreaming for emotional health

Lucid dreaming for emotional health

14 Aug 2021 by Ted Escobedo   2 min read

Lucid dreaming occurs when you are in REM sleep and you are aware that you’re dreaming. During lucid dreaming you can recognize your thoughts and emotions as the dream happens. Sometimes, you can control the lucid dream. You may be able to change the people, environment, or storyline. This type of dream of control could potentially reduce nightmares and anxiety.

Many people use a dream journal, or dream diary, to aid lucid dreaming. Writing down your dreams forces you to recall them. This is thought to help your brain become more aware of dreaming. To keep a dream journal, keep a notebook and pen beside your bed. Write down your dream as soon as you wake up. Read your journal regularly to familiarize your brain with your dreams.
