Thread: A little reality check reminder i "invented"

Okay guys i know alot of you begginers have trouble remembering to RC.
well ive made this chart for you to print off to help bring about a Lucid Dream, do them in a talley:
Rc's today:
9am:
10am
11am:
12am:
1pm:
2pm:
3pm:
4pm:
4:30pm:
5pm:
5:30pm:
6pm:
6:30pm:
7pm:
7:15pm
7:30pm:
7:45pm:
8pm: and onwards until you go to sleep.
Dream Journal:
"I was Just dreaming..."- read this at:
30 minutes after awakening:
12am
3pm
6pm
8pm
and just before bed so you remember your dream from the night before at bedtime not only should you kind of understand what it was like but know exactly what it was like because you reminded yourself all day.
Goodluck hope this helps, copy it print it off and stick to it and eventually you will Lucid dream.
happy dreaming

Well the problem usually isn't "I wonder if I should RC right now..." The problem is remembering to. That's the hard part for me. The other thing is if you RC every hour on the hour, it will just become routine, and you won't mean it. For an RC to work, you have to really analyze your surroundings, in my opinion. I do my RCs in the "lucid living style". I just try to convince myself that I am in a dream no matter what. (Without doing anything stupid like trying to fly). I make up a reason why I can't use powers.

"The sun is at the wrong degree of brightness for me to use my powers right now. The brightness is too dim..I rely on the sun as my source of energy so I must not use my powers until it is brighter". In the meantime try and convince yourself that everything you're seeing is part of your dream world.

If you do this as your reality check, you will do it in a dream. To do a reality check in a dream, you have to be partially conscious anyway to remember to do it, if you think about it. With this way, lucid living is more of a habit or way of living than an RC, and in my experience works a lot better.

happy dreaming

Well, first off thanks for your reply, the whole point of this chart is to egt somone into a routine so if you walk around your bedroom all day or your visit your lockers every hour or you work at a desk you place the chart there and it is a simply reminder, and the dream journal part really is good for helping to realize your dreaming.

Oh I understand what you mean now. Good idea. I think I might do that at first. But be careful, because if reality checks become routine and boring, they can eventually lose their effect after a while, and not work, because you just do them routinely.

Cool thanks for your reply this is just a simple straight forward plan to get begginers lucid and then i suggest they perform reality checks at random intervals and when they see there dream sign.
happy sleeping hope you have an ld tonight goodluck.

I find reality checks work better being spontaneous, I somehow doubt keeping a tally would cross over into my dreams. When I did them to a tile they didn't work.

If it works for you though, go for it.

nice way to remember for the night. You must have made it with a dream clock,though- 12am doesn't come after 11am.
