This sounds good. I think I have tried to do something similar before, but I don't think I focused on continuing my dream well enough to the extent that I found that I was dreaming. |

Here's what I do basically every night/morning, and I just thought i'd share. It's similar to the DEILD(I think is what it's called) but I don't do exactly that. |

That sounds like WILD to me because of the sensations that you get |

Seems promising, I am going to try this tonight. |

Kind of like a VILD. I too glance quickly at my clock when I wake up, trying not to move much. I wake up after every REM cycle by drinking a lot before I go to bed. I know what you mean. A few times, I have thought about something, or pretended to have a dream/make up a dream by visualizing it as I fall asleep. After awhile I am actually in the dream. This usually startles me when i realize it, and pop out of it. I will try your method. I have a question. Around how long does it take do you think to go from starting to visualize and actually being in the dream? Thanks! |

GOALS-
Have an LD[X]
Do a succesfull WILD[X]
Learn to stabalize and control my dreams[ ]
Play a Gibson Les Paul that works correctly[ X]
Hmm haven't done this in a long time. May try tomorrow morning. If any of you have tried it, or plan on trying it, would love to hear feedback. |
|
Have you ever wet the bed with that REM technique? Like, serious question. It's always a wonder to me because I'll go the whole night with like half a gallon of water in my stomach and the next morning I pee it all out. (Staying on topic) I usually don't imagine the last thing I dreamed of. I feel like if I stress too much about my last dream, I won't dream about it at all. But I will give this a go tonight. |
|
sorry I never answered your question I stopped coming to these forums for a while. Honestly I don't remember. If I had to try to go off of memory i'd say maybe 10 minutes at most. somewhere between 5 and 10 maybe. idk. Next time I do this though i'll post about how long it took. |
|
That sounds like a WILD... I wonder if you were focus, you could turn that into an OBE... |
|
I've been very interested in OBE's recently, but i haven't tried it yet. I hadn't thought about attempting it after waking up in the morning while going back to bed. Very interesting idea. Basically the idea is that you're supposed to use some sort of technique where you feel like you're somehow coming out of your body, right? |
|
there's several techniques you can use, but instead of thinking about song lyrics or a dream you have to FEEL yourself coming out of your body. you can do it by imagining yourself walking up stairs (more mental than physical sensation), climbing a rope and "pulling out", or even just "rolling" out of your body (you should do exercises to "loosen up your projectable double" before this method), but not physically moving. you should feel energy sensations before you do, like a tingling or warmth, then upon exit most people feel strong vibrations or falling sensations. another way to induce an OBE is when you go into SP you simply "shift your point of reference" to a point outside your body. i did this once (my only true ex successful OBE so far) and here's what happened... |

My opinion, and OBE is just another type of LD. You will hear much debate on this. - Really, with an OBE you just see you leaving your body, or feel it. It usually starts with you in the same place you went to sleep. Much like a False Awakening. |
|
Siphorix, i used to think that too, but think about something for a moment...in an LD, you can manipulate the dreamscape and the characters in it right (well, if you have full lucidity and you are clear in your intention)? in an AP/OBE, you only have very limited control, even if you apply methods used in an LD and are completely aware of your situation. during AP/OBE's the only thing you can control is yourself and anything you are in immediate contact with (i.e. a wall, and phasing through it)...you can't actually alter the "fabric of reality" if you will, or control what other people/animals/beings do...which proves that these are two very distinct and seperate phenomina. |

I may be showing my own ignorance here, having only possibly had an LD for 60 seconds or so and never having had an OOBE, however, could the idea of not being able to control your surroundings in an OBE not just be your own mental projection of what you have been told an OBE is like? I'm not disputing their existence at all, in fact I'm incredibly interested in them and would like to check them out once I get the hang of lucid dreaming but the little logical part of my brain is jumping up and down saying could this 'non control' of the OBE just be another fabrication of your own mind? |

Things to do 2012/13:
Write dreams in my journal every day [ ] Practice reality checks as often as possible [ ] Start having lucid dreams again [ ] Try to create a continuous dream world i.e. each lucid picks up from where the last left off - could be fun.. or impossible [ ]
Number of LD's had so far: 11 My Dream Journal: http://www.dreamviews.com/blogs/kjarva/
I don't think that I have either, I was more just getting out a random musing from my head. Sometimes I think about things far too deeply |

exactly. the whole key to controling your lucid's is to BELIEVE you can control them, and EXPECT what you wish to happen as if it were already so. the thing is, people try to do this in an OBE before they realize it is in fact an OBE and then when it doesn't work they chalk it up to just a lack of belief/ability. sometimes people don't even realize they are out of body until they see something happening and find out the next morning at that time the thing they saw actually occured (i.e. they see a friend playing a specific level of a game and then going to bed...they see or talk to their friend the next day and say "i had a dream last night that you were..." and the friend says "thats creepy...i was at that same time you had that dream!") this was actually an OBE. |

I'm not sure if i'm just not thinking or if I actually don't know, but what's RC? |

RC is Reality Check. |
