Thread: Can't lucid dream at all?

Dream journal is basic and very important. Start it today!

I will give you one single technique, try it 3-5 days and you should have a LD. The main basis of it is that LD /OBE is easier to achieve after waking up rather than before going to sleep, after waking up we are RELAXED and RESTED... two things that are very important for LD.

Here is the technique:

1- Before going to bed spend 3-5 minutes repeating "When I wake up during the night I don't move a muscle or open my eyes" or something similar
2- You will eventually find yourself awake in the night or early morning and will recall this petition, follow it, don't move or open your eyes!
3- Start picturing anything such as your last recalled dream or any setting you want, for example picture yourself walking through a forest,feel the wind, the soil, etc. Make it as real as you can.
4- Once you start seeing what you pictured or any other setting start engaging it... move! touch things!. Once it feels solid enough proceed with whatever you want to do.

You should be able to enter a LD within a minute in this way, we all have several awakenings during the night so these offers several tries in a single day. Good luck!

We all can LD so don't become frustrated, use your unsuccessful as fuel to keep you going. Any attempt has something valuable in it so keep trying!

Thanks! I've not heard of this technique before and can't wait to explore it. Would you recommend this over WBTB?
