Slow-motion fighting dreams

[IronFist]

I had another one last night. For some reason I was fighting this guy at work (I think). Nothing I did worked. I remember he punched me and I tried to pak da it, but when my fist hit his face it was so slow and harmless like I just gently touched his face. This happened over and over. Every time I tried to hit him with a punch or palm strike, it was so gentle it didn't do a freaking thing. I remember thinking "come on, I know I don't hit this weakly."

On the plus side I don't remember taking any shots in the dream, either. Maybe we were both adversely affected by the messed up physics.

What's up with these dreams. All the martial artists I've asked have them too. I've never asked a non MA before. I think I will today if I remember.

I have had them all my life. Sometimes I have woken up form them striking and have actually hurt my wall before. The dreams don't happen nearly as much. And that 'slowed' feeling also is in other dreams, not always ones with fighting.

train harder. I posted something about this a while back, so you can search for it if ya want. In a nutshell, what had happened was there was a time period where I slacked off my training. I think subconsciously, I knew that and also knew that I wasn't as effective as I once was. So I started back to training intensely. Evry time I had the dream, I'd speed up a little. Eventually, I was to the point where I was moving normally and doing damage. Now, whenever I have a fight dream, i can move normally.

I dimly recall a dream I had in high school, where I had done something both extraordinarily mean-spirited and uproariously funny to my sister (a fairly common occurence). I was trying to run while laughing hysterically, but it felt like my legs were moving in slow motion.

Fortunately, the baseball bat she was hitting me with didn't seem to hurt, just leave big numb areas.

Of course, when I was in high school I ran cross-country, and didn't do martial arts. So maybe this is analogous.

This is why I tell people I was much better prepared to face multiple opponents when I was in high school.

You might want to talk about it with someone familiar with dream forecast/telling etc. or if you wish,you might post it here http://www.cgjungpage.org/ forums.

Besides,dreams tend to be very strange so do not take it too seriously,even though they might tell you something.

I remember having this one strange dream where I was confronted by some pretty angry,fat&big mean,middle-aged guy who tossed me around with poor technique and superior strength with little effort.
I was quite helples trying to defend myself against him.

But I do not take them too seriously...

Ive never had a dream where I fought anyone.

i always have dreams where i am trying to puch someone but its really slow and i just push at their face. then they try to hit me and ican block but kinda let their blows glance off of me. weird

I had those for a little while when i was a kid, wasnt doing any MA at the time of fighting anyone... so i think its a mental thingy... that people that know psychology could explain to you, i personally cant

Anyways, while still being a kid and not into MA, those dreams ended the night one time i had a nightmare where i was attacked by a vampire, i ripped his heart out of his chest with my hands and never had a slow motion fight dream ever again.

I had a dream last night about a little buff dude wearing a yellow bandana, my kung fu sucked in the dream (it always does when I am overly tired) but whenever the lil dude hit me it didnt hurt. I dont think I was hurting him either.



I find eating chinese food before bed will improve your dream kung-fu. Also what sevenstar said seems to have some truth with me as well.
