My first LD plus beginner tips

**Codename** · 03-23-2011 08:25 PM

Hey guys i had my first LD using a MILD yesterday! It was very gratifiying and after trying to WILD unsuccessfully for 3 months i finally realized that MILD is where its at for beginners. i had my first after only 3 days of practice!

What i did before sleep that helped.

1. Drank apple juice
2.Rehearsed a mantra in my mind to fall asleep to
"I will remember to do a reality check
3.Did many RC's during the day. I also questioned my surroundings
"How did i get here? Is this a dream?
4. Recognized my dream sign. Mine is my school. Check your DJ to find yours out.

My dream sign is the toilet.
This is not because I frequently dream of the toilet.
It is because of that one time, at the last moment, I realized I was dreaming...

Congratulations, glad you got MILD to work for you

I actually do pretty much the same thing except I go for milk instead of apple juice.

Hmm, what for?

Milk seems to help with my DR and vividness. Long story short, I helped in a study on another site which seemed to indicate milk does help out. I've also heard that fresh fruit/ juice is also good.
