Your Future is Powered by Your Dreams

by Theresa Cheung, author of the book: Dreaming of Your Future.

We are so indoctrinated in the belief that time is linear. The science of precognition, and trying to explain how the future can dip into the present, is a head crash. However, I’m fully aware that when it comes to processing the reality of precognition, the theory feels abstract—impractical and impersonal. There is nothing as convincing or real as your own direct personal experience, so from this moment on you are strongly urged to start gathering your own proof that you are a precognitive being and do all of the suggested exercises.

Your future is ready and waiting for you to catch up with it. There’s no better time to begin dreaming your future-forward life than right now. Let’s dive right in.

Your Daily Precognition-Boosting Action Plan

Precognition, like life itself, can only be understood or recognised as the miracle it is backwards, or in hindsight. But it must be fully experienced and lived forwards.

The more attention you pay in the present moment to your waking hunches and night visions and the future they are constantly pointing you towards, the more you will learn not just to “see” the future of your dreams but also to attract or manifest it.

Start incorporating the following precognition boosters into your life every single day. In time, these simple techniques, if you repeat them daily and consistently, might just prove to you once and for all that your dreams really can and do come true.

This precognition action plan is going to be your future-forward catalyst from this moment on. Don’t worry if it feels like a lot to immediately take on board. Let me reassure you that all of the suggested actions are far easier to incor­porate into your daily life than you might initially think. And even if you start to practise only one of the recommended actions, you will still be seriously sharpening your future vision. You are encouraged without hesitation to leap right into the unknown.

Remember Your Nocturnal Dreams

The first rule of empowering your precognition is to recall and write down your dreams upon waking. The second rule is the same: to recall and write down your dreams upon waking. If the only thing you take from this book is to remember and write down more of your dreams so that you can consider in hindsight how much they have foreshadowed a future event, situation, or mindset, your time travel adventure will have begun in earnest.

Recalling your dreams is crucial because most of your dreams con­tain precognitive themes, whether that be in showcasing potential future events, emotional reactions, situations, or mindsets. If you have ever experienced déjà rêvé (a dream remembered) on the day after a memorable dream or a few days, weeks, months, or even years later, and you had the foresight to write it down, then you already have your personal proof that you are a precognitive being. This is the perfect moment to stop dismiss­ing this experience as random and to shine a light directly on it. The only way to do that is to make recalling and writing down your dreams a top priority every time you wake up from a sleep or nap.

Prove Yourself

Be sure to keep a written and date-stamped record every time you notice something in your waking life that you have experienced previously in a dream. This could be an object, event, situation, symbol, person, or loca­tion or even a feeling, reaction, or mindset. It’s your personal proof—the scientific data you need—that you really are a dream oracle.

One thing I’ve learned from collaborating with scientists over the last few years is the importance of collecting evidence that can be verified. After-the-event anecdotes are compelling, but their impact is weakened if there is no proof that you recorded your precognition before it happened.

Note: Be mindful that your precognitive dreams showcase potential futures, so never fear recording them. If you don’t like the future foreshad­owed in your dreams, remember that you have free will and can change that potential future by the choices you make in the present. Your future is out there, but it is also always hiding in your own hands and endlessly being created by you in the present.

Live Your Dream

As your dreaming mind transcends the laws of everyday life, logic, and reason, your dreams can show glimpses of your future. Fall in love with the precognitive (psychic) poten­tial of your dreaming mind, encouraging you to consciously seek out déjà rêvé in your waking life so your future is constantly guided and inspired by the feelings of your own dreams and the flash forwards they are revealing to you every single night.

To reassure your dreaming mind that you really are taking it seriously as a precognitive asset and that you want to live its wisdom, upon waking when you recall a dream, choose a colour, object, sound, or any other safe everyday symbol that featured in it. Then during the day, actively notice, seek out, or follow the associations you make with that symbol. Create your own déjà rêvé synchronicity until you don’t have to anymore.

For example, if you dreamt of a bicycle and own one, go for a ride on it. If you don’t own one, notice bicycles more during the day or search online for a video of one to see what associations it triggers in you.

If you noticed the colour blue in your dream, wear something blue the next day or make sure the pen you write with has blue ink and so on. If you were walking up some stairs in your dream, then every time you climb stairs during the day, take your mind right back to your dream staircase.

This “live your dream” exercise is super helpful because your precog­nitive mind has got used to being ignored over the years. It needs reas­surance not just through your intention to recall and record your dreams upon waking but also through your actions—just as you learn to trust oth­ers because of their actions and not their words. You need to show, not just tell, your dreaming mind that you are authentic, that you want to connect to it and live its wisdom in your waking life.

Observe how actively connecting to your dream symbol and bringing it to life (consciously seeking out déjà rêvé) makes you feel, and what sacred/creative associations are triggered by that feeling of familiarity and inter­connection between your inner and outer worlds.

Trust in You

Believing something is possible is key. Nothing illustrates this better than that watershed moment for human potential on 6 May 1954 when British runner Roger Bannister smashed the four-minute mile barrier. Knowing the four-minute mile was no longer impossible inspired other athletes to do the same. The key to their success was believing that what was previ­ously deemed impossible was now possible.

The power of collective belief is strong. It illustrates how intercon­nected we all are on an energetic level.

In much the same way, belief in your own precognitive potential is the single most important factor when it comes to precognitive experiences. Repeat this affirmation daily out loud or in your thoughts: “I am a precog­nitive being. I see the future I am attracting clearly in my dreams and in my waking hunches.”

Your belief that precognition happens and is real will inspire others to smash through doubt and fear and awaken precognitively too. Your belief will change not just your life but the lives of others as well.

Meditate

Most of us have experienced a hunch that proved to be correct or had a dream that played out. This is normal and not exceptional, but if you are in the minority and feel you have never had a precognitive experience, a daily course of meditation could very well do the trick.

Meditation can stimulate the parts of your brain associated with empa­thy, intuition, and creativity—all doors to unlocking your innate precog­nitive potential. That’s why just a few minutes of daily meditation (or, if you struggle with meditation, some calm alone time to simply clear your mind and notice your thoughts but not interact with them) is highly rec­ommended for every budding precognitive.

Let Your Body Talk

Although precognition is most likely to occur in the dream state, it can happen when you are awake as well. When it does happen, precognitive signals tend to be experienced first in your body, most especially in your gut and your heart rate.

The term used for physical foreshadowing is presentiment. Notice what your gut and your heart tell you immediately upon waking and through­out the day, especially when you meet someone new or visit a place for the first time. Let your body do the sensing.

Daily and Consistent Practice

Keep repeating the precognition-boosting techniques every day until they feel entirely natural.

A positive sign that you are heading in the right direction with your precognition training is how much you enjoy or look forward to doing these exercises and how excited they make you feel about your own pre­cognition. Notice how the shift in perspective they offer raises your vibra­tion and reminds you that whatever is happening in your life right now, you always can rise above it, see the bigger picture, and transcend time.

Everything, Everywhere, All at Once

Never lose sight of the fact that precognitive experiences and dreams hap­pen, and when they do, they make a nonsense of the traditionally accepted concept that time is linear. They suggest that your past, present, and future might just be happening all at once and there is a part of you that is infinite.

Here’s another instantly vibration-raising thought for you to consider. It’s well known among psychologists that if people feel they are being observed, they instinctively perform better. This phenomenon is known as the “observer effect.” Well, you are being watched all the time. Your future self is here watching you, meaning it really is always the right time to go ahead and impress yourself!

Your future self is already way ahead of you and eagerly absorbing this new insight.
