I have had occasions when have woken up and felt extraordinarily good for no particularly obvious reason, and on those mornings I often have distant memories of a very vivid dream.
I believe that it’s very likely that I did have a lucid dream that night but just didn’t remember it, and then those feelings could’ve been carried over so I had indirect memories of the experience.
What do you think?
I think yes!
i often wake up with a song stuck in my head and i am sure that dreams have something to do with it!
Yeah I get that when I have lucid dreams, I also feel a lot more awake
Dreams can colour your mood upon awakening, for sure. I often wake up feeling well, and remember a fragment of a really interesting dream later in the day…but if I’ve had an anxiety dream or a nightmare, I do tend to feel a little under the weather.
Of course I think this goes both ways…if you have a bad day, you may also have a bad dream. Maybe it can go on in a circle like that. But, I do think that if you were to have a lucid dream and forget it, it might still leave you feeling pretty good when you wake up, if it was a good dream that is.
Hm, i’d say yeah.
Well i had a dream the other night of me smoking cigarettes with one of my friends that i no longer hangout with. Why did i have this dream? I don’t even smoke anymore! but then that night for some stupid reason i ran into him and smoked cigarettes with him. Did I do this because I dreamt of it? or did i have a precognition of this event?
It could’ve been that the dream was inducing some feelings that i haven’t let go of yet, but tried to ignore. This brought them into the open and made it so that I wanted to do these things? Not sure, but kinda weird anyway.
Yes. Yes. Yes. Dreams definitely induce moods. In one I was happy and euphoriac, and it carried over
Okay, yes. I just had a dream where i was super excited and happy and i had the best dream ever. Now I’m just so perfect right now, haven’t felt this good in a while.
Hi all,
I do agree that dreams can induce some great moods. I’m very familiar with dreaming, but only new to lucidity; last week when I had my most prolonged and clear lucid dream, I felt great the next day - the gloomy mood I couldn’t shake the day before just vanished! Does this often happen with LD’s?
definitely. bad dreams make me want to avoid everyone and good dreams have me talking to everyone and smiling. weird huh
