Hey everyone! I know I haven’t been on in a while, but I’ve been conducting my independent LD experiments. I’ve been having trouble inducting LD’s lately so I decided to come back to the forums. But that’s not what this post is about. I’ve been trying to increase my pain tolerance lately, and having someone hit me repeatedly just doesn’t seem like a good way to do it. People have told me it’s a mental thing, so I assumed it can be done with Lucid Dreaming. Usually when I get into fights in LD’s the hits just don’t hurt at all. Does anyone know how to induce pain in a LD?
Well, I just saw you on chat, but I guess I’ll still reply so you have something more concrete from me to come back to read. 
In the future (though not anytime soon) I think it would be interesting to attempt to feel worse pain than I have had in dreams before. Usually, if pain hurts, it’s not horrible (though that has happened once or twice). However, sometimes when I’m injured, it just feels warm at the site of injury.
Really, once I get around to this goal (It’s out of curiosity! I can’t even test my own blood sugar IWL…), I plan to go about it mostly by expecting the pain to feel more realistic when I’m injured. Perhaps I’ll have to end up actually imagining the pain, but at first, I’m probably going to more “expect” the dream to make the pain more realistic so it will fill in the “missing” pain for me.
Why do you want to increase your pain tolerance?
I don’t know if lucid dreaming will help you well because the pain feels different from RL pain and less intens too.
If I were you I’d just kick my bare feet against the wall 
First of all I’d just like to note that being in pain repeatedly is indeed a good way to increase pain tolerance, if you are willing to go through it. I happen to know it because I wouldn’t be able to play baseball the way I do now without getting hit by so much balls… it really does the trick.
Still you should really think about wether you are willing to go through it but I’ll leave you to that I guess.
Point is, pain is all in the mind. It is just the reception of signals from painsensors, and the actual pain feeling is created in the brain. So if you’d train yourself in some way you should be able to feel pain anywhere at will, just like most people can get an itch by thinking about it. Not that I would know how someone would go about training that.
But I guess it would be a lot easier in a LD. It’s all about convincing the brain the world around you is real. Even though it is not getting signals from the painsensors in the skin, tell your mind that the information that your visual and feel centra in your brain are correct.
It’s interesting to me that you wish to induce pain upon yourself because I want to use Lucid Dreams to escape pain. You see, I live in a world burdened by tremendous pain everyday, I was born with Sponge Kidney, a disease where your endocrine system doesn’t produce the hormones necessary to break down mineral buildup in your kidneys. Thus, I have thousands if not millions of kidney stones in my left kindey, it’s the only pain worse than childbirth. So while I’d like to fight in my LDs, I mostly want it to be a place where I can do anything I want without the crippling pain.
yes, why do you want to increase your pain tolerance? what in the world?
Providing that the dream is vivid enough, all you need to do is to get creative I suppose. Perhaps it is good to start with familiar pain. Try pinching yourself! It may work better than putting your hand in a blender because you don’t have the blender experience anywhere in your memory. I found it worked pretty well to prick myself with a dart. When I put my hand through a TV screen, it didn’t hurt, and the electricity inside just tickles and buzzes. I throw myself in the air in an attempt to fly and land on my stomache. It hurt quite a bit, but only for a second.
