Thread: I H8 Reality's VILD Technique

going to attempt to pwn with this technique tonight.

I'm going to try this one tonight. I've tried this technique a few times before, but I'm usually dead tired when I wake up briefly through-out the night, so doing this never crosses my mind and I forget. ):

But tonight shall be the night I remember. (;

I know what my problem is. My doctor has me on a new medication for my ADHD.... It's called Vyvanse. It really messes up my ability to sleep... I can't stay asleep the whole night, and it takes me a while to fall asleep once I'm awake. It also can give me bad depression, but thats another story.


I'm only on a trial perscription for now. I can't wait until I stop taking the stupid pills.


EDIT: I woke up at 6 this morning and couldnt get back to bed...

Thats good that your tired in your brief awakening, your brief awakening is a doorway to a dream and visualizing is like putting a Lucidity key in the door. Metephoricaly speaking

did not pwn.

huh?

mmm, I failed the 5 day trial...I remembered a dream a night, but I did not become lucid...Im still going to go on this though, since this is the first week that I have remembered a dream every night

edit: oops, wrong technique, sorry man!!

So I just tried this technique this morning and I was able to string together around 10-15lucids in a row with it. I've never had anything be so successful for dream re-entry.

I went to bed around 1-2am after drinking heavily. Woke up around 6:30 (my normal wake up time on week days). My heart was racing from all the booz I drank, so I took about 10 minutes to calm myself down. I then lied down on my back and tried to WILD. I did a combination of deep breathing and reverse blinking to really try to slow my racing heart. My girlfriend interrupted me by sitting up and screaming from some dream. I gave up and rolled to my side. I just fell asleep attentively, watching my thoughts and HI until I felt myself start to enter sleep.

Right when I was on the border of sleep, dipping in and out, I started to imagine myself getting out of bed, opening the bedroom door paying attention to the feel of the door handle. Then I walked through the living room, opened the front door, againg paying attention to the feel of the metal knob. Then I imagined closing the door, locking it with my keys, opening the gate, and then closing it behind me paying attention to the sound it makes when it closes.

I think really paying attention to the sounds of the doors closing and the feel of the handles helped increase the vividness. By the time I reached the stoplight on our street corner, I was fully dreaming, and went from there.

I woke up from the LD after only a few minutes, knowing I was still half asleep, and did the exact same visualization again. It worked again, giving me another 5 minute lucid. I did this about 10-15 times, having short lucid dreams. They were very unstable, and it seemed like the environments changed very easily for some reason. Like I could just think of where I wanted to be, and I was there.

I will definitely be trying this again tomorrow morning.
