Lucid Living – Creating Your Lucid Reality

By Luke Sumpter

Guest Writer for Wake up World

Depending upon the culture we are born and raised in, our mind is programmed to perceive the world in a certain way. Many people seem to meander through this life very unconsciously, abiding by the dictated social conditioning within their consciousness from birth - free from questioning and critical analysis. This may related to how their society operates, political ideologies, religious belief systems, the expectations placed upon them as an individual etc.

However, when the boat is rocked and the water breaks white, we tend to catch a glimpse of the world from an unbiased, raw, baseline outlook. This perspective may be triggered via a traumatic event, a mind expanding travel experience, self study, psychedelic or spiritual experience. Or maybe it is a realization that cultivates over a longer period of time, using the tools and techniques of mindfulness, meditation, dream analysis, hypnotherapy, psychotherapy etc.

Regardless of how this process occurs, such life events have the tendency to force an individual to start to question reality - what is really “true”, what parts of our belief systems are actually serving and progressing us along our path, and which parts are actually detrimental. It is almost as if we have woken up from an unconscious slumber and become lucid in life. We are able to empower ourselves and others to make better life decisions and really hone in on what we really wish to gain from the human experience.

A lucid person becomes more conscious of what foods from which they choose to construct their body-mind, what relationships they choose to invest energy in, and grow from, and where they choose to receive orders and authoritative demands from - if anywhere at all.

When a person is “asleep” in the waking state, when they are unconscious of their conditioned behaviours, they do not make such quality decisions, but remain passive and docile and ultimately a slave to their circumstances.
