Thread: A few stupid questions...

Hey Dickie!

WILDing is when you go to sleep with your concious mind active. Waking up and inducing a LD...well, that falls into WILD too, but if I'm not mistaken, that's WBTB.

Otters . That's a question my friend TygerHawk gets alot. Are you just dreaming of being lucid? I personally think that it's not possible to dream of being lucid, since you can tell the difference between a dream and a lucid dream; as long as you've had one before. And if you reassured yourself it was a dream, you became lucid. So no, I don't think you dreamed of being lucid.

Actually, I've heard people say they feel very RECHARGED, instead of being tired after having a lucid dream. You are dreaming normally, you are just in a different state of awareness. It counts as sleep, since you are in a REM cycle, in bed, and snoring! Hope it helps!!

P.S. DON'T DOUBT YOURSELF!!! Doubt is a LDer's worst enemy. I may not be very experienced, but I do know that doubt can kill your chances.

Hi Dickie,

G'day, I've been trying to LD for a while, I keep reading WILD and know its where you sleep, wake up and them somehow make yourself have an LD. Trouble is I none of the tuturials make any sense to me for some reason. Can anyone point me in the direction of a simplified version? Or explain it simply?[/b]

Try the link below. I think it has a very good tutorial, although it uses the word \"phasing\" instead of WILD.

And I've also had two or three dreams in the last couple of dreams where I resassure myself that I am dreaming, thing is, I usually wake up at that point. I have had a dream where I realise I am dreaming, but for some reason I turned myself into an otter and jumped into a river. Is that lucid, or just dreaming of lucid?[/b]

It seems you are in the right path, but when you achieve a higher level of lucidity in a dream there's no way you can mistake it for what it is.

Good luck.
