Thread: Any tips on achieving layer 4?

Care to elaborate cmind? I agree that the layers are quite ridiculous. It says that control = awareness, which is very untrue.

I use this all the time:

once you are level three, stop and focus your awareness on your dream body, and then take in EVERYTHING. How does it feel? Is it blurry or clear? Focus on feeling; sight will come naturally. Then you will become fully aware, and able to experience the dream exactly how you would waking life (that includes pain, so be careful...).

It is best to say to yourself before you sleep that when you become lvl 3 you will do this, but you WILL forget a couple of times or do it improperly. But don't get discouraged. Also, to keep lvl 4 you will need to be constantly aware much like a WILD.

Hope this helps...

All of this is just dream stabilization, it is not complex. But like cmind said layers are just a guideline, and more accurately, lucidity is a continuum. The best thing to do is to take some tips, but don't overthink it...
