      Hi....Starlite Here

      As far back as I can remember ive always had trouble falling asleep....I could lay in bed for hours just trying to turn my internal dialogue off so I could drift off to sleep. I have 'Initial Insomnia' and its really been a problem, but here recently I figured out that if I try to imagine what I want to dream about and ONLY imagine that - I find sleep alot faster than I used to. I started journaling and really started to actually pay attention to my dreams...I love it!! Why have I not been doing this all along? Well a few nights ago I think I had a Lucid Dream - I know I did - The first one for me...that i can recall.

      The dream:
      Im a 18 again (26 in reality) and I was at the mall with my 'then' boyfriend L. -a first love you might say-. We sat down at a table in the food court. I began to clean out my purse (?) and in the bottom I found rose bush stems. I looked up at L. sitting next to me and then realized I was dreaming. I was in shock to begin with then it dawned on me that I could do anything I wanted to and get away with it. Looking at him I say "I love you and I never stopped loving you. Im sorry if I ever hurt you." He is at a loss and is puzzled by my outburst so Im thinking to myself I just need to tell him that im dreaming. When I open my mouth to speak.....I woke up.

      All I could think was ' WOW....what the hell was that???'
      I began to research via web and came across the term Lucid Dreaming.
      Googled "Lucid Dreaming" and it brought me here.

      So I say "hello" to everyone!!

      Hiya, Starlite, and welcome!

      And congrats on your first lucid dream! Sounds like you've got a pretty good handle on becoming lucid, now you just need to practice! I highly recommend that you read through the tutorials section, and find some methods that you think would work for you. Personally speaking, I recommend MILD and WBTB. If you have any questions about it, you know where to find us!

      So Barbizzle...did the focusing help at all? im curious.
      Do you have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep?
