Hey guys, it's the end of my first 30-day challenge. I know I've skipped writing DJ's for the last couple of days but life just came in my way. Nevertheless, I'm more than satisfied with the results of the last month. When I started this challenge, I was on a 3 month dryspell. During this challenge I finally figured out what works for me and for the first time I had the feeling that lucidity is in my control. I won't write down my last night's dreams as they were really short. In the dream I talked about lucidity and even got lucid for 3-4 seconds. What I did last night was pretty much improvisational. I wanted to wake up after 5 hours of sleep but I overslept my alarm due to tiredness and woke up after 9 hours. I fell asleep again while doing passive LDD. Here's my summary of the last month: I learned a pretty much sure-fire technique to get lucids after WBTB. ADA and meditation is really important and it's a lot of fun. ADA increases life quality so much and meditation keeps up your focus for ADA. At least 8 hours of sleep are required for me to be able to get lucids. Skipping a day or two isn't really that big of a deal, as long as you return to your challenge with new energy afterwards. Motivation is completely optional, you just need to have a strict work ethic. Emotions are negative for my attempts, I need to rid myself of any emotions and do my attempts on a pure logical basis. Writing DJ's is really interesting if you analyze your dreams and try to find out which elements of the dream came from which event IRL. But natural recall is as good as writing DJ's as long as you analyze them in your head. I'm going to use this information for my next 30-Day Challenge in which I will solely focus on refining my technique. See you guys!
Last night I went to bed late, didn't meditate before going to bed (I wanted to try out something) and it was way too hot to be comfortable. I woke up about 4 hours after I fell asleep and tried something my friend Windy told me. I just did some awareness meditation until I fell asleep. I didn't get lucid...but in one dream I actually thought "If this was a dream, I could kick their ass!" while fighting aliens. Maybe this works well if I get more sleep. Tomorrow is the last day of my challenge and I'm pretty much content with my results so far. I've learned a lot about myself during the last month. 1st: I dreamed about driving in my car. For some reason I always drove in circles and there was no street that would lead to my destination. I kept turning around and all roads led to the same place. I got really angry at some point but then I found the right way. Interpretation: Maybe some fear of not progressing or something else...I don't know for sure. 2nd: I was on a spaceship and aliens attacked me and some other people. We got to the sentry guns and tried to shoot the alien aircraft. For some reason it didn't get any damage even though I hit with every single shot. I was like "If this was a dream, I could kick their asses!" but didn't get lucid. Then I backed into the engine room and tried to set up some kind of barricade. The aliens broke through but they didn't want to attack me. I even talked to them. For some reason they just wanted to destroy the engines and they didn't even see me as an enemy. Everytime they broke something, I fixed it again just like in a game. The dream got weird and now the aliens were some characters from different animes...pretty weird. I woke up. Interpretation: Memories of some games I played in the past, almost got lucid, in the dream I even passively felt how tired my body was IRL.
Sorry for the late entry, I took a 3-Day break because life was really busy. I didn't stop refining my technique, though. So far I found out that to get lucid I need at least those two things: -8 hours of sleep -Waking up in the night naturally This is my entry from yesterday night, didn't have time to write it because I wasn't home all day. 1st: I dreamed about buying my own house in some weird city. The house was really beautiful, it looked really small from the outside but once I walked inside it was much bigger (dream logic ftw). For some reason right after I've seen every room there was a huge crowd of people in front of my house. There was a riot and they wanted to fight me. I immediately thought to myself "Wow, my dream is epic!" and got lucid. I decided not to really interfere this time and just let the dream happen. Some weird guy with a hat appeared in my room. He looked like Twisted Fate from LoL and he also had playing cards. He wanted to play poker with me. I sat on the table. I didn't do ADA or any RC's all the time so I lost lucidity at some point. The dream got even more weird from here on. The window in the second floor bursted. Some kind of Chimerae monster appeared. It was covered in flames and tried to attack me. Suddenly another Chimerae appeared but this one was covered in ice. They both attacked me but I evaded them and tried to beat them somehow. At this point the dream changed and I was now being told the reason for this weird dream. Apparently I was some kind of Doctor (Doctor Who?) and all those creatures are from different dimensions and centuries. Weird... I woke up. Interpretation: I always wanted my own house (wish), the card guy was from LoL and those creatures reminded me of a hero from HoN. I actually never watched "Doctor Who?" but my sister always tells me about the show. 2nd: My recall from this dream is almost completely gone. I just know that I did parkour with another guy and got lucid for a few seconds. Had another fragment about me playing some kind of game where I had to destroy my car as fast as possible. Somehow my lucidity was really low that night, probably due to tiredness and exhaustion from work.
