hi, interesting stuff thanks |
|
So, I don't know if this is posted anywhere but I know that there is a guide on normal reversed blinking. Reverse blinking is used when your eyes are closed and you are ready to fall asleep, it's used as a relaxation method. I believe it was posted by KingYoshi, but the concept is to keep your eyes closed and open them very quickly as if you were blinking, focus on maybe one little thing then close them again. |

hi, interesting stuff thanks |

All I mean is that you keep your eyes closed and use the muscles you blink with to blink while they are still closed. |
|
Ahhh this is kind of like the FILD idea but with ur eyes. |
|
wow i am going to try this tonight! One question. Did you do this with prior sleep like a WBTB? thanks |
|
Ya I did a WBTB 7 hours after I woke up for about 3 mins, got up, bathroom, make yourself comfy, back to bed. Then I started doing it after like 5 mins and I had one ;p |
|
Great idea! I'm going to have to use it. |
|
I do this sometimes. Depending on when I do it, it either relaxes my eyes or makes them tense (which really doesn't make any sense to me). |

We all live in a kind of continuous dream. When we wake, it is because something,
some event, some pinprick even, disturbs the edges of what we have taken as reality.

Have questions about lucid dreaming? DM me.
I think the idea of reverse blinking was first started by Sythix, but this is an interesting idea nonetheless. I'll give it a try tonight. |
|
I was messing around with this again and I've been using it when I suspect SP is going to happen, it has sped up the process of SP for me and I've been starting to see the start of dreams a lot more now. I just use it after I wake up and go get a drink and it seems to work |

This inane 'reverse blinking' thing is a derivative of visualization. Simply visualize anything while deeply relaxed. Most 'techniques' I see here and elsewhere on the Internet that have any sort of effectiveness at all have something to do with visualization. This is simply because when we visualize (imagine visually) we are utilizing the same area of our big human brain as when we dream. This is not a spiritual guru 'thang'. It is a scientific fact. |
|
No one said it was a spiritual guru thang foo, it's a trick to get into a dream from SP quicker and on short notice by mimicking the movements you'll be making while in the dream. THis is especially helpful if you woke up unplanned and wanted to try a WBTB, since you didn't have time to visualize a full scene. |
