Thread: quick idea. i think it might work.

alright. well in school for an advanced composition class we have started to do something called a freewrite.

it's basically where you can write about any topic you want.. but the thing is that you HAVE to keep writing. no breaks, no erasing.. just keep on writing.

i was wondering what would happen if i tried a short WBTB (maybe about 10 minutes or so of being awake) and doing a freewrite about lucid dreaming in this time. it would certainly keep you awake, while focusing your thoughts and intentions upon lucid dreaming. after 10 minutes, you go back to sleep, full with ideas about dreaming.
-to recap-

• go to bed around 10:45 pm
• wake up around 4:00 am
• do a lucid dreaming themed freewrite for 10 minutes
• go back to bed.

i'm giving this a shot tonight.

any thoughts would be appreciated.

Interesting. An alternate to simply thinking about LDing? Yes, I could certainly see that working.

It is a nice way of focusing on LDing while doing WBTB. For some reason I wake up so sleepy in the night that I never get to the right mindset for any LD tech.

I'm curious about your experiences! Tell us what happened whe ntrying this in detail

yeah tell all

It's going to be really interesting re-reading what you wrote in that half-awake state. IF you can make out your handwriting

I would also like to hear results. It sounds interesting.

Yeh, this would be a more involved method of making yourself think about LD'ing. Seems more likely to work, tell us how ya go

I'll type on my laptop in bed, that way I'll fall asleep immediately, maybe even with my hands on my keyboard. Extreme? nah

Enhanced MILD, nice idea. Report back whatever further results you get
