Thread: Have I discovered an induction method?

Taking a leaf from the Increasing Dream Realism tutorial, I decided to give something similar a try. When I played a videogame, I looked at the details used and the textures of the game world. soon afterwards I went to bed. I woke up at 7.30 not remembering any dreams. Once I woke up, I looked at all the details of my wristwatch for around 10 minutes, looking at and feeling all the textures, the colours, the grooves, just about every single detail I could possibly find in my wristwatch. I went back to sleep, and I had my most vivid LD ever.

All I am saying is once you wake up, take an object, like a wristwatch, and look at and feel every single detail of that object.

Sounds cool man, I'll give it a try once I finally start LDing more. I guess it's probably not an induction technique, but a good way of increasing realism. Could be very handy.

I just remembered I did have a dream before I had my lucid dream. Now I have remembered it seems to also be quite vivid. I remember being in a fast car going at about 500mph. I then found myself in a mansion for some reason. I remember one of the windows was brokenand the floor of one of the rooms had a checkerboard pattern.

Roller is right, doesnt sound like an induction technique, but a good way of increasing realism.... if it could be considered an induction technique, it would just be that your watch became a reality check, but your LD didnt even have anything to do with the watch so...
Sounds like it really did make the LD more realistic though, good job on that

The watch didn't become a reality check in this dream - I think the whole vividness of the dream triggered lucidity. I will try it again tonight before I sleep.
