Hey guys, I'm by no means a pro lucid dreamer, as I work all the time and can't pour in as much practice as I'd like, but I realised something. If you're anything like me you're the kind of person that can quite happily stay up really late into the night and get up early in the morning. You may also not have the time for mid day naps. I found myself getting frustrated after maybe a year of lucid training to have only had 1 fairly feasable lucid. But I had a light bulb moment. Sleep. Sleep is clearly the key and I don't get enough sleep as it is. So if you're trying to lucid and failing as often as me, and you're the kind of person that stays up late and doesn't like sleeping in, then I'd advise going to bed early. The more sleep you have, the more likely you are to have a lucid. Pretty simple. I was under the illusion that I could go on trying to get lucid off only 5 or 6 hrs sleep per night. I decided to go to bed early one night recently (usual bed time is around 1:30/2:00am) so I went to bed at 10pm. Low and behold, without really trying, I had 3 very long dreams, one of which I became lucid in. Again, I'm no expert, but if your failing a lot, or finding you're not dreaming at all, go to bed what seems too early, then even when you wake up early you can snooze and that's the time you're most likely to dream anyhow so yeah. That's all I wanted to say really. Little hint for the other noobs like me. hope this helps someone, as it took me a year to notice this. |
