Thread: Low Lucidity

just read over the DREAM VIEWS site thouroughly, and what has helped me DRAMASTICALLY is reading over all the forums, and asking questions, and ask the ones who know what they are talking about

but definatelly not the muffin queen

Imagine your brain as a canister filled with ink, yeah, now think of your body as the pen where the ink resides
Fuse the two: KAPOW! what are you now?

Dramastically eh? Ok, it's just a typo but I love the way it's in caps too so it really stands out, hehe

Oh god!
I'm outta here, don't think I want to stick around to see a muffin enima!

Okay, that answer was fairly obvious, so...

Obviously I've done it already!
DUH....

I thought I could get some other insight....guess not.

Phantasy,

All you can do is keep trying! Most of us struggle with it from time to time.
About the only thing that works for me is to keep working on recognizing what is absurd in my dreams and looking for dream signs.

As for lengthening your LD episodes, practice is the only thing that will work!

Don't give up, and keep a positive attitude. For example, don't go to bed worrying about it, just relax and let it happen naturally.

seeker, you're forgeting to put the / in the [quote] tag...just pointing that out.

phantasy, can't help much. I have very little experience with RCs. I'd help if I could.

Some people have more potential then others do, but indeed, with practise you can do it. Everybody can..

Try as much varieties of techniques as possible, make a schedule of techniques which you use on what day and try find out what techniques works best..(WILD,MILD,CHILD,Self Hypnosis etc) what gives oyu the highest dream rate vividness..meditate..read as stuff about dreaming and lucid dreaming as possible..talk about it..anyting that has to do with it..

Everybody must find its own way..it will come naturaly,dont get obsessed or pissed if it doesnt work, be optimistic, think it will come naturaly,think its easy

probally more that ica n say but no time..and this will do

i'd have to say, once the topic of lucid dreaming becomes a part of your day to day life, for instance, if you talk about it all the time, think about it, do RTing, etc. it will become a part of your dreaming life, and you will begin to realize the dream world from reality

...words of wisdom! haha

i need a map of your head, translated into english, so i can learn to not make you frown[/b]

I found that saying "IM dreaming!" when I am dreaming tends to wake me up for some reason, saying "I am in controll" works better for me and dosent wake me up
If you have a free day, sleep in, the longer you sleep the longer you dreams get and the higher the chance you will attain lucidity, relax =) youve an entire life, the fact that you are on this path now is a good sign. You also seem to have good dream recall wich is also on track, dont give up, know your goals but do not force them

Welcome aboard too =)

last saturday morning, when i realized it was a dream i did not say "I AM DREAMING", but i said..."OH, THIS IS A DREAM"
it seemed to help me gain control, because it was not an excited statement...but a calm, controled one

the truth is...you could slit my throat, and with my one last gasping breath i would apologize for bleading on your shirt[/b]

Phantasy, try waking up around 5 or 6AM, stay awake for 30 minutes telling yourself you will have a lucid dream and make up a dream scenario, such as meeting a friend at a certain place, then go to sleep again and you will induce lucid dreaming,

Dream-Master, im gunna try that tonight...sounds like a good idea...

KAPOW! your the human magic marker, won't you please supprise my eyes?![/b]

thanks everyone, kind of the advice I was looking for.
