I didn't sleep very well today, because of upcoming busy day and waking up early. |
|
I woke up three times during the night and try to remember my dreams. Five dreams come to my mind, but they were about violence, betrayal and ex. I decided not to list these dreams to my DJ and rather to forget them. I think that was mistake, because when you want to master something, you have to lick some of black cream as well. |

Hi Nfri, welcome to DILD class! |
|
Yes, before sleep I say to myself that I'll have many lucid dreams tonight. Before falling asleep I do 10 minutes MILD and during WBTB after my dreams are listed to DJ I do MILD also. From now, I use dayMILD every day at least for one hour. |
|
I think I'm getting better. In three days I've accomplished 3 LD's... Go sleep between 22/23 really helps to success WBTB. The more WBTB = incerease probability of LD's. |

I was really stressed out before sleep time. Meeting with people from your past can be stressful. I slept for 11 hours with no WBTB and no MILD. Also no dreams or real fragments recollected. I really need to avoid this stress situations before sleep, because it is so fcking unhealthy and unproductive. |
|
Yes, stress can effect our sleep and dreams and recall. It's good to avoid it if we can. |
|
I deeply want to have LD's again. I didn't practice my MILD and I didn't follow my lucid dreaming plan lately, because I moved into a new apartement and before that I was on holiday. I did't have a plan for a new enviroment. I made my plan today and from now on I will dilligently do my best and practice every day and night, I promise to you all, my oneironautics friends. |
|
And your recall is already up. I am sure there are things I can learn from you with all those LDs but I would also like to help you any way I can. Gab recruited me as co-teacher in here. If you find your practice waning in the future, consider holding onto as much as you can...perhaps your favorite parts and build your way back to all the things that help you meet your goals. It can also be fruitful to review your favorite dream journal entries. |

I agree with you on focus. I struggle with that at bedtime off and on. Have you tried a mantra as you first go to bed along the lines of "I remember my dreams" or "I remember my dreams and write them down"? It should be said with real intention behind it (and in the present tense like in the example) about 15 or so times...usually the more the better. I often forget the power of a mantra when I first go to sleep and end up doing any night work during my wbtb but I am trying to get better at reminding myself when I first go to bed through my own mantra. Recounting your day in a day journal can also help with dream recall. For day recall there are some days that I recall so much that is overwhelming so I sometimes just pick a random period during the day to look back upon and recall so it doesn't feel like a burden that I won't keep up. I got the idea from a thread by Mastermind. Let me know if you want the link. |

Yes...it gives me a boost in dream recall...here's the link: |

This is my plan during the holidays until new year for effective lucid dreaming practice: |

went lucid this morning enjoyed flying |

Congrats getting lucid! A lot of good things on your list on the post before last...the only thing I would add is to go forward with strong intent but make sure it doesn't feel too much like "pressure." You have more LDs than, me so take anything I say with a grain of salt of course. And whatever you did last night worked! How long have you been LDing? |
