Thread: REALITIY CHECKS!

good idea

Ive had some intensive reality check periods to where i did them like you said like almost every 10 minutes during the day and it worked very well. But it was a bit tiresom... and the RC became a bit washed out where they didnt seemed so powerfull compared to when doing them now and then. But it worked and i really forgot that. So maybe il try again.

Do a reality check! xD
Lol, yeah. I´d take the advice that one of the moderators gave me. How frequently you do them isn´t as important as how much meaning you put into each and every one of them. Try to perform RCs with some serious reflection, not just in a light-mannered way and try to test reality in every way you can.
I think its better if your do lesser but really thorough RCs than one every 10 minutes but without any interest or just cuz its a routine.

One problem I have with Reality Checks is that I work at home, so I normally don't run across anything "unusual" during the day that would make me wonder if I'm dreaming. I also never dream about being at home, and since that's where I spend most of my time, it's kinda hard to "wonder" if I'm dreaming while I'm here.

Because of this, I've had trouble sticking with RC's for more than a week. I just couldn't convince myself I might dreaming while I'm at home, so there seemed to be no point in it.

So now I'm trying something new:

As frequently as I can remember (so far about 10-30 times a day) I carefully look at my hands and tell myself, "When I am dreaming, I look at my hands and realize that I'm dreaming." Then I look around to make sure this isn't one of those times I'm dreaming.

Somehow, saying the affirmation seems help me think that maybe I really am dreaming this time.

I've only been trying it for 4 days now, so no results yet. But I've got my fingers crossed (Wait do I? Lemme check... Yep, they're crossed!)...

Yeah he's right I did them in a light-mannered way and I did a RC in my dream but didn't get it and was non-lucid for the rest of the dream.
