Hello,
I'm Rhys Jones and welcome to this Lucid Dream Incubation Recording.
What follows is a lucid dreaming story,
Influenced by one of my own lucid dreams.
It can either be listened to for fun,
Or with the intent to sow seeds for a lucid dream later on in the night.
If you're listening just for fun,
Then you are,
Of course,
Free to put this on at any time during the day or night.
However,
If you decide to listen with the intent to incubate a lucid dream,
Then we recommend listening to it either just before getting into bed,
Or whilst falling to sleep.
So I'll now give you a moment to decide how you want to proceed.
If you decide to put this on whilst you're falling to sleep,
Then use this time now to prepare for that.
Turn off your lights,
Draw your curtains,
Get into bed,
And do whatever else you need in order to feel fully settled.
And when my voice returns in a moment,
The lucid dream incubation will begin.
You come to,
Standing on the shores of a shimmering crystal clear lake.
As you look out,
You notice that there's something strange about the way the sun hits the water's surface,
And this observation triggers lucidity.
At first,
The feeling comes on slowly,
But then it surges through you,
A sense of excitement and empowerment filling your being.
A tingle runs up your spine.
You remember that,
Because you're here inside your own mind.
You can roam freely,
Bending the rules of normal physics to your will.
Upon this remembrance,
Your imagination kicks into overdrive,
And you begin to run through all the different scenarios that could now play out.
After a while,
You step onto the lake,
And instead of sinking,
Your footsteps create ripples as if the lake's surface were solid ground.
Wow,
You think,
Surprised.
You weren't expecting that.
Typically,
The dream delivers what you're expecting,
But not this time.
You chuckle to yourself,
Then decide to test the limits of this gravity-bending phenomenon.
You take another step forward,
Somewhat tentatively,
Then another,
Gaining more confidence as you go.
With each step,
You feel a weightless sensation,
As if you're walking on air.
Yet somehow,
You still feel connected to the water's surface beneath you.
A strange feeling,
Indeed.
As you continue walking on the water,
You look up,
Noticing that the sky above you is a mesmerizing blend of colors,
Morphing and shifting with each passing moment.
Incredible,
You think.
I can't believe my brain's coming up with all of this on the fly.
And so,
Inspired by the surreal beauty surrounding you,
You extend your arms upwards,
Face your palms down,
And imagine a gentle force enveloping you.
First,
Subtle,
Then strong,
And finally,
All-encompassing.
The dream responds to your desire to be lifted up,
And,
Once again,
The laws of gravity that you're familiar with in waking life,
Crumble.
You slowly rise from the surface of the water,
Floating effortlessly into the air.
There's a sound of swirling around you,
And you feel a deep,
Ineffable power brewing in the pit of your stomach.
Here I am a god,
You think,
Smiling,
As you begin to maneuver through the dream sky,
Soaring freely with a newfound sense of liberation.
You're flying,
And you're flying with panache if you don't say so yourself.
Now,
Feeling emboldened by your success so far,
You decide to transform the dream environment.
You begin to envision a lush,
Floating island covered in vibrant flora and beautiful cascading waterfalls.
You imagine this land forming just below you,
And,
With a flick of your hand and a nod of your head,
The dream once again responds to your wishes,
Reshaping itself to your will.
Wow,
I'm really on a roll,
You think,
Watching the island materialize.
You glide downwards towards the floating island,
Landing softly on its lush surface.
Hmm,
What now?
You wonder,
Looking around.
Playfully you decide to summon a selection of glowing orbs,
Each one representing a different element.
As you touch the first,
It transforms into a swirling vortex of fire,
The second into a shimmering rainbow of water,
And the third into a gust of wind that gently rustles your hair.
You are one with the elements,
And manipulating the dream environment with ease.
What an incredible lucid dream,
You should be impressed with yourself.
You revel in this magical playground,
Experimenting with the dreams physics and manipulating the elements at will.
Fire dances in your palms,
Water spirals around you,
And gusts of wind carry you effortlessly through the sky.
Everything feels so alive,
So real,
And so responsive to your intent.
Whatever next,
You think,
There's no telling where your mind will lead you.
And so,
Curious to mix things up,
You land back on the ground of the floating island,
And go searching for your next experiment.
As the lucid dream continues to unfold,
You further push the boundaries of what's possible,
Creating and exploring a new portion of the island where the surroundings become a canvas for your now unfettered imagination.
With each interaction you deepen your connection to the boundless creativity within your own mind,
Embracing the limitless possibilities of the lucid dream.
And just like that,
Out of seemingly nowhere,
An insight comes to you.
I create in similar ways back in waking life,
You think.
Maybe not in such obvious,
Immediate ways,
But I have a direct influence over life back there too.
And with that insight,
The dream begins to fade,
And you find yourself in the clear light,
With just your thoughts.
Here in the clear light,
You ruminate further on your previous insight.
What do you want to manifest in the physical realm upon your return?
What do you want to create back in waking life when you awaken?
Maybe you want to go after that new job or begin that new creative project.
Maybe you want to reach back out to that old friend or ask out that woman on a date.
Maybe you want to start that new diet you've been eyeing up or take that online course that intrigues you.
Just like the dream world,
The possibilities are endless.
Lucid dreaming is a ton of fun,
Don't get me wrong,
But waking life can be just as magical,
Given the right framing.
Even more magical,
When you bring back your lessons from the dream world and successfully integrate them.
Never forget this,
Dear traveler.
From this day on,
I want you to begin experimenting with lucid dreaming as a tool to improve your waking life.
You can do it.
It can be done.
If you listened to this lucid dreaming story just for fun,
I hope you enjoyed it.
And if you listened for induction purposes,
Then I hope this parting message now finds you,
Relaxed and drifting.
Your lucid dreaming seeds have been sown.
Your mind has been primed.
And you are ready for sleep.
And so with that,
I draw this session to a close.
Remember,
You are a lucid dreamer.
Never forget it.
Happy dreaming.
