Thread: Opinions about Reading Books on LD's and OBE/Ap

Could do both. I like to take the positives and leave the negatives.

Book says "this this can help stabilize" okay. Book says "this this can make your dream unstable" ignored. I think that being worried about bad schema or ideas creeping into our head is gonna hold us back more than just reading, acknowledging that I don't agree and moving on.

I think that some guidance is needed, and when I was younger at LDing I needed to read things about lucid dreaming constantly to keep my ability up. I actually took a break from it all this year and then when a bad tech hurt me pretty bad, I decided to rebuild it all and now I am almost back to 100% without relying on spending hours a day on forums or PMing people about it or anything. I am just here on my own journey this time. That is another reason I reset my LD count, so I could get back to where I was, faster, and with my own strength. Might be a little prideful, but I believe I hit my limit on how much books and things could help me before (10/week approx) and I don't think there is a limit if I am on my own.

I like that you say take the good and leave the bad. I have googled a few topics, and I saw some really out there stuff. I thought if a completely new person read what I had, they might be completely lost or misguided at the least.

I also think it's healthy to take a step back from it all from time to time. Did you come back to it with a different outlook on any of your previous beliefs? Try things differently?
