      Autosuggestion Thread

      I, and a number of others, have found that being active on the forum has become its own form of autosuggestion, allowing us to attain lucidity more often and achieve the tasks we want to achieve in our lucid dreams.

      To facilitate this, I am starting this autosuggestion thread. Anyone can use this thread to reinforce an idea or goal for their LD.

      I've noticed that typing out my goals and reading them in this fashion strengthens their influence over my dreams. I hope to use this for all manner of personal goals, including Task of the Month.


      I didn't use any of the tutorials to come up with the idea but I do have some reference links for those who want to know more. I found them this afternoon, with the help of Linkzelda. They make for good reading.

      Autosuggestion - What is it?

      I have always found a subliminal autosuggestion occurs with my dreams as it's the only way to explain current events and surroundings entering my dreams. However, I'm attempting to reinforce that subliminal suggestion to make it something more...concrete. I want to choose what enters my dreams.


      I am already hyper-aware of my surroundings so reading that Dream Yoga tutorial simply reinforced my normal habits.


      I really want to achieve the Task of the Month. I want to possess the body of a dream character and manipulate them as I would my own body.

      I typed that out three times, not copy/paste. I need to reinforce this idea.

      I'll have to think what goal I'd like to reinforce first, but yeah, I really like this idea.

      Reinforcing the idea. I just made a 60-mile drive, and now that I'm home I want to get this in my mind.

      I find what I want to dream about, I don't. And what I really don't want to dream about, I do. Negativity seems to be stronger than positivity. :/

      I tend to suffer from the same affliction. Perhaps it's the guilty conscience associated with our mutual affinity for the Jungian psychiatric philosophy.

      Melanieb, you will achieve the Task of the Month! And you will most definitely possess the body of a dream character and manipulate them as you would your own body.

      after reading everything everyone else has posted over and over again I think I'm going to dream about the task of the month, Alice in wonderland, Dinosaurs, and Bagels! lol But I'll add in mine as well I think this is an AWESOME idea because I have found that the more time I spend on dream views and reading about being lucid, the more likely I am to get lucid.

      I will remember to reality check and question weird things.

      After a WBTB, set an alarm to go off every 15 minutes. Each time you wake, set it again. Though this will be annoying, I bet you'll remember your dreams. When I can be bothered, I use this method to guarantee WILDs - if I fail and fall asleep, the alarm wakes me in 15 minutes to try again. If successful means short WILD coz of alarm, but can still do it again. ^_^

      But carrying with the thread:

      I am gonna try this tonight, Thank you, Wolfy!!!
      One problem, I've been experimenting with my REM times/ what time to wake up during REM. And.. It's different every time. I mean, I don't know how many hours after going to bed I should awaken at? :/.
