How to Use Lucid Dreaming and Dreams for Problem Solving

Lucid dreaming is one method of solving difficult problems you have during the waking hours. Since your mind isn't focusing on other tasks as you sleep, like sensory input, it allows it to be far more creative. If you've ever forgotten a name, a date or even something important you wanted to tell someone and simply decided to quit stressing and allow it to simply come to you, you'll understand how lucid dreaming works. You relax your thoughts and the solutions find you rather than the other way around. Scientists, artists and novelists often find important information in lucid dreams.

Benefits of Yoga Nidra meditation

Yoga Nidra is deep sleep. Many people mistakenly believe it's twilight sleep, that stage between awake and dreaming, but it's even deeper than that. It goes beyond the dreaming stage and into a state of conscious deep sleep. While that sounds like an oxymoron, it's not. It's the third of the four levels of consciousness where there are no images in the mind. Mental images live in the domain of a waking state, the first level or the dreaming state, the second level.

Can Yogic Breathing Meditation Develop Your Psychic Abilities?

An important side effect of yoga training is the development of psychic abilities. The term development is appropriate, as everyone has these abilities. Every culture has had healers, shamans and mystics. Some people seem to be born with this ability but most honed the skill through training with an elder. The cultures vary but the results of that training do not. Psychic powers are available to everyone. Just like playing the piano, some people tend to have a gift for it, show amazing abilities at an early age and are savants in music. Others follow the natural course of piano lessons.
