I did a little more GRC than the last few days, I did it while being with my friend in the cafe. I also meditated. |

It could be! Or it could be just that time in your dream cycle. Or it could be day residue is just producing different, more interesting dreams. Or it could be that you're paying more attention to your dreams and finding parts of them that are interesting! I find the overall theme and quality of dreams evolves over time, sometimes they're silly, sometimes serious. They generally reflect what's going on in our wakings lives to some extent, to what we're spending our time thinking about. |

Awesome! You had what very well could have been a lucid dream last week and then you realized that you had a definite lucid dream 2 nights later! Nice result! Keep up the great work! |

Congratulations once again Elaol! You really should be proud of your consistent LD's! I can't remember if I mentioned it to you, but SSILD was my primary WBTB technique and was used before most all of my LD's for the first 3 years or so of my adult practice. You have been getting good results from multiple methods though! |

Thanks fogelbise, that means a lot to me Care to share some tips & tricks for SSILD? I know the warm-up cycles and 4-6 cycles lasting 30 sec for each sense. Since you have used it for so long, I guess you have some tips that aren't shared on the tutorial page |

I would be happy too. You might want to consider continuing with what worked for you the other night though and just let me know later if you really want to change it up at all or if you don't really like the way you were doing it, or just love experimenting (which is great). I don't want to take you off the course too early, for something that is already working for you. Does that sound good? I do like your enthusiasm to try different things and maybe that is a good course of action for you. Let me know. |

My advice for SSILD is: do what you like, play with the cycles. I prefer shorter cycles, sometimes I skip the body and just go back and forth between vision and hearing. Most important: continue to relax throughout, since you need to make progress towards sleep. So keep your attention lightly on the cycles, not a sharp, laser focus. |

That should have read "I would be happy to."(share some tips and tricks) but it sounds like you figured out what I meant. |

It took time and experimenting with it to feel like I was still getting good rest, but because of your condition I am not sure if it is a good technique for you. If you want to try my adjustment to the cycles and see if that makes it easier for you to get to sleep and feel rested and not have an effect on your epilepsy, let me know and I will share it with you. |

I found SSILD also very invigorating the first few times I tried it. The trick is to constantly relax and release tension on every breath as you do the cycles. Try not to "hold on" to your awareness really tightly. |

This is very common. Dreamlets *hate* being looked at, they are very shy, they tend to vanish if you focus on them . |
