ok if any LD newbies are out there who are trying exceptionally hard to get a LD,take this advice.
just take one day off trying completely
no wbtb no mild attempts just a normal sleep.
yeah in the morning jot your dream down but if youve been trying very very hard and you take a day off then im sure youll get some results at least.
thats how i got my first ld anyway,just taking a day off after trying hard for a week.
would people post some results? id be really interested to hear your outcome!
Yeah, I agree with ya.. the idea is to not stress and not let a sense of failure consume you. I had my first LD when I stopped trying as well (first since joining DV I mean). :)
:goodjob2:
Good advice. Extra stress is counterproductive.
i don't really try, ask Schwig, i came damn close to havein a LD first time i came here...damn excitedness :-x
My first ones came with no thoguht about it thats for sure. But anohter method, totally opposite, is to try really hard. But usually right when you stop stressing, they come.
I found combining techniques works well too. I used MILD+RC by thinking "Gumby is LDing, Gumby has self control" (see naming subconscious thread} repeatedly and imaged the finger through hand RC technique in my mind before and during going to sleep.
hey dreamers.. yeh, i agree Damascus.. im only new but last night i went to bed normally not trying and a had more vivid dreams and i could recall 3 when i woke up....and it was nearly a LD i think
I also notice that if I have any excessive expectation or stress regarding my LD's, then they tend to stop happening :P
As soon as I stop stressing ... I have another :D
