Thread: 70% better chance for lucid dreaming and remembering dreams

That makes sense. I have only been really vividly lucid once. I think i felt the most joy that the mind is capable of producing. It was only a few weeks ago but I've had problems reproducing that feeling due to my deep frustrations with not having had one since then. I've had plenty of DILDs but they are really really weak.

What I guess I mean is what is the meditative state? Is it like being in a trance where you get hypnagogic imagery and stuff? I guess I never really udnerstood what it means to meditate. I'll give it a go...How long does it normally take? Sorry to ask so many questions

cool, ill try it tonight.

I have a question and don't know if I should post it here or if it's already been asked. So, if and when I get to the point that I have LD's just about every night, should I continue to record my dreams in my journal every day or just every so often? Thanks if anyone can give me help and I'm sorry if this has been asked in the past.

I know I should meditate more, but I'm so friggin lazy. When I do get around to doing it before bed, I usually become aware of the hypnagogic state as I'm falling asleep. I should have ridden them out into lucid dreams instead of getting up to write them down.

Nice thought. I have been in a dry spell myself. Back when I was getting 1 - 2 LDs/week I was doing the MILD method but now that I think think about it was also doing a variation of your method as well, though I was lying down. I think I will give this one a shot. Thanks.

it can take how ever long you want..i recommend 30 mins, because to begin with its harder to remain so calm and still for longer....

meditating itself is just clearing your mind, do not try to force yourself to have hypnotic imagery or anything because meditating itself is basically staying calm with a clear mind...or fully concentrating on a certain subject (but not too hard because it will break you out of your calm state)...

sounds cool, ill give it a try tonight but keeping this up will be a different matter, well the LD motivation amy keep me doing it
