Hey everyone about 6 months ago I had my first lucid dream, but instead of doing reality checks I usually just say "I'm dreaming" a few times throughout the day and look at my hands. I did this when I wanted to try lucid dreaming, because I thought wouldn't the dream try to get you to believe that everything in a dream is already normal? And I felt slightly lazy. Anyway, one night when I was dreaming in my dream I said "I'm dreaming" and everything became clear and felt real. I remembered to look at my hands to stabalize the dream and I was able to manipulate the dream. Is this an actual method to achieve lucidity or have I not had a lucid dream yet? I feel as if I am lucid dreaming |

Ok, yeah I thought so. I knew they were lucid dreams cause i'm aware and it feels so different and amazing |

There are right ways, and there are consistant ways. In order for it to be right for you it needs, to be consistent. Otherwise, whats the point, right? |

I tried WILD last night but it felt weird and I got scared and couldn't sleep for a few hours |

you can go either way with a WILD... |

Dilds=5 Wilds=1 total LDs=6

Repeating "I am dreaming" while awake is an existing method, I often use. You need to be sure to look for proof you are dreaming when you do it. It becomes habit like any RC, then if you find yourself saying it AND find the proof, yay, lucidity. |

The dream does not need to make you believe that' everything is normal'. While dreaming your big human brain has effectively turned off your ability to reason. You are, in effect, a dream zombie just going with the flow. That is, unless you become lucid. Then the fun begins! |
