Lucid Dreaming
“Fly without wings;
Dream with open eyes;
See in darkness.”
― Dejan Stojanovic
Some Reintegration practitioners have reported the spontaneous emergence of lucid dreaming. For those who don’t know much about this phenomenon, I’ll try to briefly describe it.
A lucid dream is every dream in which one is aware that they are currently dreaming. It rarely happens to the average Joe, supposedly, but when it does it is often delightful. It is a sudden, overwhelming feeling of total freedom. We can do anything: pass through walls, fly, or even change our environment. The lucid dream’s surroundings can become somehow crystal clear, crisp and divine. Some have said that lucid dreams felt more real than their waking reality.
There is said to be hardly any control over how or when the lucid dreams occur, however. Even if we find ourselves inside a lucid dream, it rarely lasts for a long. Most often, as soon as the enlightening thought passes through our mind “This is a dream!” we become excited, lose connection to the dream, and wake up.
Extensive work with the Reintegration System (and with other effective psychological or spiritual methods) sometimes unintentionally produces spontaneous and more frequent lucid dreams.
But Reintegration could also be used as a tool for developing the skill of lucid dreaming. Why would we like to develop that ability at all? Well, taking into account that when we are dreaming we are in a direct contact with our subconscious, there are many possible benefits of a highly developed lucid dreaming skill. In a way, we can consciously communicate with aspects of our subconscious. Hence, we can use that state of mind for many things, for example:
How to develop the skill of lucid dreaming?
You should be constantly cautious within your lucid dreams. Be aware that the realm you are in is not only your subconscious mind. It’s inherently independent, and being meek and moldable to your presence, it only mirrors some of your unconscious aspects. Thus, just as you could meet some highly conscious beings there, even spiritual teachers and angelic beings, you could also stumble upon some negative entities that exist independently of you and could even act not openly aggressively, but be cunningly and covertly malicious and harmful. In that case, you can and should always retain full control over your dream, if needed calling upon higher beings for assistance or simply inspiring yourself to wake up.

In a way, we can consciously communicate with aspects of our subconscious. Hence, we can use that state of mind for many things, for example:
- Direct communication with elements of our personality;
- Getting various hidden pieces of information;
- Talking with spiritual teachers;
- Remembering long forgotten scenes or people;
- Visiting distant places on Earth or even in the cosmos;
- Getting information about illnesses and healing;
- Extending the internal time of your dream (it could be much longer than the time actually passed in waking reality while dreaming) and practice skills that you otherwise can’t practice or don’t have time for;
- Applying various self-improvement methods, including the Reintegration techniques, which could be even more effective in this state.
How to develop the skill of lucid dreaming?
- Recollect some of the most frequent scenes in your dreams;
- Create an intention to become aware inside a dream whenever you find yourself in one of those scenes; assign to your roles in those scenes triggers for your awakening inside the dream; visualize these scenes and your becoming aware that you are dreaming;
- Do regularly the MH procedure with the intention to become aware that you are dreaming, with the common dream scenes that you previously recollected;
- Ask yourself recurrently during your waking times: “Am I awake or dreaming?” After some practice, the same question will appear inside dreams more and more frequently, leading to more lucid dreams;
- Look repetitively at your hands during your waking times; that could also lead to the same result of becoming lucid whenever your hands come up into your awareness in the dream.
