      RC's that translate over to dreams

      I'm the kind of lucid dreamer that has been trying for a while with little results- the RC's I did never happened in my dreams.
      I just started to try to do it differently and it has begun to work so I thought it might help others who have the same problem.

      1)You've just remembered to do a reality check. Key thought/feeling: you might be 3 seconds away from being in a really cool lucid dream. "Wow, everything looks really detailed". What you are looking at might be the dream world that you can control. You could be 3 second away from growing wings or blasting fireballs.

      Hopefully you feel excited that you are so close

      2) Do your usual (for me it's counting my fingers). If it is normal then state "I am not dreaming" or something similar. Sometimes practice: if I was in a dream I would say "I am dreaming" and try to stabilize.


      I never got any lucid dreams for around 7 months and now I do reality checks in my dreams (the ones I remember) about once every 3 days




      ...now I just need to learn to stabilize better >>
      The creature laughed, scornfully. "I," it said, "am afraid of nothing." "Nothing?" "Nothing," it said. "Are you extremely afraid of nothing?" "Absolutely terrified of it," admitted the dragon. "You know, I have nothing in my pocket, would you like to see it?" "No," said the dragon, uncomfortably, "I most definitely would not." There was flapping....and Charlie was alone of the beach.
      "That," he said, "was much too easy."

      You're right; getting your dream stabilized once you're lucid is one of the most important parts of lucid dreaming. I've wasted many chances because I didn't stabilize the dream first, and it turned out very hazy, unstable, and short.

      These are some great suggestions! Thinking clarifying thoughts before an RC is just as, if not more important than, the RC itself in my book. Glad you found some thoughts that work for you.

      I would do more than one RC, though. Probably three is best. And for some people, (this seems not to be true for you, so go with that since it's a good thing to have immunity from,) getting too excited inhibits them from thinking clearly. So be careful to calm down if your dream world starts getting hazy.

      Nice thread, good tips. I hope to hear of more LDing success from you in the future.
