      New RC!

      This is a new idea I had today.
      Normally you can see your nose and the edge of your eyes, sometimes your hair.
      I never remembered seeing any of these in a LD, my field of view was more of a rectangular shape.

      The idea is that you check if you can see those and how they look.
      This RC wouldn't be much noticable to do and it requires nearly no effort.

      I'd love it if a few of you could test this for a few days.
      What do you think?

      voldemort would have trouble with this one. yeah that's right VOLDEMORT anyway I become lucid automatically, but next time I'll check to see if I can see my nose, edge of vision, or hair, and get back to you.

      Check your memory, did any suprising event happpen ? does the present make sense ? visualize what you will do when lucid, and how. Reality check as reminder of your intention to lucid dream tonight. Sleep as good as you can; when going to sleep, relax and invite whatever comes with curiosity. Grab your dream journal immediately as you awake and write everything you can recall (if only when you wake up for good). Keep calm, positive and persistent, and don't forget to have fun along the way

      Really interesting.

      I'm probably not the first to have the idea, but as someone who wears glasses, I had the intention to use them for a RC in a lucid dream. During the day, along with fingers in the palm and nose pinching, I verify that 1°) I wear glasses 2°) my vision is bad if I look above my glasses.

      Until now, I don't know if this would work in a dream, unfortunately. I only had a dozen very short lucids and couldn't test. But, altough I wear glasses since my childhood, I think (but am not sure) I don't wear them in my dreams.

      I thought that this RC was being used allready, I just never read about it, so I wanted to post this.
      I think I'll also try to check in my next LD if I can see my nose.
      Also the more people there are who try this out the better it would be.

      The nose check you talk of is an established RC. It can be unreliable (but that applies to all RCs).

      My LDing record, if you want to hear about it, is about 4 WILDs, 1 DEILD, and the rest DILDs.
