Most efficient technique?

Hey all. I was just wandering which technique gives best results, and how often. Im currently focused on two techniques. MILD and DILD. I know mild consists of waking up for about 5 mins or less, while dilds are waking up for an hour or more. Which is more effective and consistant for you guys? Also, i know that DILDS are the most common LDs. I was wandering when most people had DILDS. By couinsidence or from staying awake for an hour after 6 hours of sleep. Or perhaps from a RC. Thanks for your time guys!:banana:

nevermind guys. When i typed up this thread i though that DILDs were when you woke up after6 hours of sleep. My bad.

I got my first lucid from a WBTB DILD combination where I woke up at 6 and stayed awake for about an hour. I heard this is one of the most effective methods for beginners.

A great resource is Stephen LaBerge's book on Lucid Dreaming. Its free on the internet at this link: http://www.scribd.com/doc/230942/Exp...tephen-LaBerge

The most common, DILD. IMO, the most efficient, MILD.

Most efficient is DEILD, it's pretty much foolproof, but it's hard.

This morning was the perfect time to Mild...but jsut as i was falling back to sleep my dad woke me up for school. What a shame lol.

When I do it correctly, WBTB MILD works 100% of the time

DILD can be combined with WILD, which, as you mentioned, involves waking up about six hours after the onset of sleep. You don't have to stay up for an hour. I find fifteen minutes sufficient (half of which are spent in bed!). You can tailor it to suit your needs.

There is no sure fire way to lucidity for everyone. Everyone must forge their own path to success! It will take much trial and error, and, if you are like me, some sleepless nights! Good luck!
