for over a month i was trying lots of different ways to get lucid. then i few days ago i decided to stop trying all of the things to become lucid and instead just go to sleep thinking that getting lucid would be easy. that night i got lucid :D
im gonna keep trying this and see if it keeps working. has this hapened to any one else ?
I got lucid by not thinking about it -_-
Well, you could be a natural, but I doubt it.
If you were a natural you would have been having LDs long before this.
But confidence is supposed to help alot with LDing.
In fact, there's a tutorial based on simply having confidence before going to bed.
Pretty neat stuff.
I've been not trying for about a month now, and haven't had a lucid...
So I figure im gonna start trying again.
Thats usually how it works... most of the time when people give up on it, it hits you hard... Thats why I tell people to not think about lucid dreaming so much when sleeping, just keep it at the back of your mind...
Yes, years ago I found another hobby -- racing motorcycles -- which took up much of my mental focus and emotional ambitions. At the end of the day, I just did not have the energy or inclination to go through the entire Lucid Dreaming set of rituals. And while my rate of Lucid Dreaming perhaps did decline, I would still have lucid dreams occassionally, as well as still having what I would consider important dreams.

hahahahahahahahaha good idea bro :oops: :lol:
Ok I have read about a hundred posts from this site and the main concept that seems to be working is the idea of just letting yourself believe it will be easy. Then bam everyone is getting an LD. Well no one cares to explain what they mean by this. Should I simply go to bed literally thinking that a LD will be "easy". Or is there more to it. This is a big problem, everyone should start explaining themselves a bit more and maybe up the anti on vocabulary. I know I know....writing is hard and burdensome but surely if you just take 5 frackin minutes to write a full paragraph you will be impressed with the outcome, not to mention you will get more responce from others who can now better understand and therefore respond better to your post.

woah sorry DUDE. well ive been doing literally nothing but focusing on LDing and ive been getting more the more ive tried. so its not like just giving up is gonna work. but maybe after you have crammed it all into your brain and just relax and meditate on it, it may work. is that long enough for you lol j/k
No its not.
You practice meditation jay dawg? If so what is your technique, I would be tickled pink to know :mrgreen:
by meditate i mean just allow your mind to focus on the task with ease. i usually take an hour or two at different times and put an LD brainwave mp3 on, lay down in the dark and reinforce my mind with noticing my dream signs and becoming lucid in my dreams. usually my eyes start to REM when i do this. trying to wild without actually TRYING to seems to work best for me >_<
i hoped i tickled your fancy
LD brainwave mp3? what is this and where could you get one?
this is a common thing. You try really hard for like a month and then take a week break and more than likely you'll get a lucid dream. I'm not sure why its like this. Im sure we(the community) talked about this already and came up with some kind of hypothesis, but i cant remember what we discussed really...

well i cant exactly post the links i use anymore because seeker banned the posting of copyrighted material. understandably of coarse.
i can however link u to this great site: http://lucidquest.com/music/samples.htm
3 free samples. very good and also use brainwaves. set them to loop.
someone correct me if im wrong but i believe there is one called "lucid dream induction" that is free. i cant find the link but this one may work a few more times http://s36.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=35QHVNE...8Z0NLXOE7XM2WWC
you could aslo download free brainwave generator and use the dream induction setting or make your own preset. http://www.bwgen.com/
goodluck
thank you. i started the download then noticed it was 35 mb! meaning i'll have to go to a friends house and download it. damn dial up :mad:
