Which method does this fall under?
Ok so I would just like the describe my way of "purposely" having lucid dreams. I also have the regular types where I just realize i'm dreaming, but it happens half way through or so and I only mention it becuase I don't want you to think I rely on "one" technique heh.
I joined the forums 2 days ago or so, and i have had a total of 3 lucid dreams that I can remember vividly, and 5 or 6 that I had lucid encounter in, but have very poor recall on it. So for those of you who think you have not lucid dreamed, perhaps you do not remember, but odds are you have.
So here it is.
When I have a purpose for my dreams, this is how I go to sleep.
1: I go to bed
2: I lay in bed and try to feel like i'm falling asleep. I may or may not have side day dreams, but I make sure to stop having them when I finally feel heavy.
3: This is where I usually employ the OBE method. Where you wake up in your dream by walking out of your body, or getting up from bed.
4: At this point I am in my dream I go about doing my purpose, whatever I went to sleep with intent on doing it.
5: wait untill you wake up. (the basis of this is that REM sleep periods last a set amount of time and the grows longer after each time i'm told, so in theory you wake up a few times per night, but do not remember.)
6:after waking up, your body should still be tired. Lay in bed and remember that you are about to fall asleep again. employ the same method as the first time. Now your dream should be longer than the first one.
Rinse and repeat.
What method would this fall under? I go straight from reality to the dream world... I think it is prolly WILD...but doing that they employ the WBTB method...which granted is used....but only after I am lucid in my first dream.
If anyone has a full comprehension of time dialation, would you mind becoming my friend? I would like to explore this field. My mother, although she has never experienced LD, and she has told me she has never even flown in a dream before, has experienced months, and even years worth, of reality in her dreams. But she does not realize it is a dream, so in essence it is wasted on her =(.
Anyways I would like to know what class my LD's fall under when I purposely have them.
