Balance Your Brain With Lucid Dreaming
Contact to the subconscious mind, unlocking personal and collective potential, boosting creativity, experiencing adventures, rediscovering the true Self - the positive aspects of lucid dreaming are sheer endless. We can use it to solve the secrets of our nightmares or to simply enjoy a world with no limits other than our imagination. It can be our sanctuary and it can be our source of wisdom.
Now, researchers from the University of Lincoln, UK, found out that lucid dreaming can highly improve problem solving in daily life, not only when approaching a problem during a lucid dream directly. A study focusing on insight (creating a group word based on three single words, e.g. the group word for ‘sand’, ‘mile’ and ‘age’ is “stone”) showed that test subjects who were good lucid dreamers were able to solve 25 percent more problems than those who did not practice lucid dreaming.
Dr. Patrick Bourke, who conducted the study, said: “It is believed that for dreamers to become lucid while asleep, they must see past the overwhelming reality of their dream state, and recognize that they are dreaming. The same cognitive ability was found to be demonstrated while awake by a person’s ability to think in a different way when it comes to solving problems.”
It seems that lucid dreaming changes the way we use our brain. Usually we either experience a dominant left brain hemisphere or a dominant right brain hemisphere. Only extremely well-balanced people experience a constant harmonic shift between both sides. While the left brain hemisphere is relevant for logical thinking, the right brain hemisphere is the source of creative intuition. When we are in a lucid dream we are in a cycle of creativity and logical conclusions. This balance of intuition and knowledge is the reason why we are generally getting better in solving problems. Creative breaks, in comparison to logical relations, are a necessity for development. Not only does a balanced brain activity support problem solving, it also calms our minds and harmonizes our soul. Even more reasons for a life full of lucid dreams!
