Thread: Lucid dreaming begginer, things are getting worse than when I started.

Recall goes up and down in cycles I've found. Stay excited about dreaming and recalling your dreams.

Have a look at my dream recall tips

Do not enter lucid dreaming practice expecting instant results. It requires nothing less than the transformation of your awareness to become awake and attentive, both in your waking life and in your dreaming life. That takes time. Steady, consistent effort yields the best results. Progress is measured over months and years in this discipline, so if you can dedicate yourself, you will reap the rewards.

Hello,

I already read your dream recall tips (I have seen you recommend them on some other post) and one thing I found particularly helpful for me: "practice recalling your waking day before bedtime".

I remember when I was younger, around 10, I liked my dreams, and once I asked this guy who is a psychologist and my father's friend what to do to increase the number of dreams I have. I did not have a clue what LD is, nor did I know that we are in fact dreaming every single night. But i got one advice; the same one that I mentioned above. And seeing it from you made me remember those days. I was very young, I did not last long, my dreams kept me occupied for about 1 week.

It is possible that because of the fact that I accepted this "technique" as a youngster, it is much more effective for me now. I have read that LD is hard to achieve mainly because our brain and unconscious are not used to it. But this particular thing I had been doing years ago, and maybe it is stored somewhere deep in my brain as an effecive method to "have dreams".

This thing I did now before sleep, and combined with much needed support from Redrivertears (who made me feel happy about LD again), I remembered three dreams, which has never happened before.

Thank you both for your help and advice.
