    Intensive DEILD attempt 4:

    Better than the night before since I actually slept this time. I woke up once to an alarm a little confused, but it didn't go off properly. When I woke up I moved a little due to being confused but I fell asleep again. The 7 other alarms didn't go off properly either so I'll have to try find out why that happened :/

    Dream - Chasing someone
    I remember being in a complex building running down some stairs with 2 other people, a girl and a guy. We had spotted an Asian woman with long dark hair and a plain white dress with no shoes on staring up at us from the bottom of the stairs who was apparently the person we had been trying to find. She bolted away so we sprinted after her. Upon reaching the bottom of the stairs we looked around and saw an entrance which we thought we saw her run into. I'm the last to enter the room, it's a shallowly downhill sloping corridor that has a dead end after 10m. The ground has a 1inch high layer of flowing water. The others are looking around the room confused and begin exploring it trying to discover how the Asian woman escaped. I'm still at the entrance, I look to my left and see a bunch of green goo start flooding out with the water current. It's sticky and acidic. The ceiling starts to slowly come down. We've activated some sort of booby-trap. The others are scrambling to get up and out of the room, but the combination of flowing water, the slope and the sticky green goo that starts burning their skin makes it exceedingly difficult. I'm lucky I'm at the entrance... I don't know if they manage to escape. I do remember that the green goo was on me too and I was scrambling around on the ground pulling myself out of the room, but I didn't feel any real connection to the scene. Next I decided to run in another direction, there were these wide ascending stairs which I ran up two steps at a time. I began to see other people, I had to hide my identity so I put my hood up. They weren't human, their eyes reflected the light and they had pointed ears - vampires. I kept my head low and walked through crowds of them, it was like a market place that was underground in some steam punk world. I thought one of them noticed I was a human and began tailing me but I pretended not to notice. I was trying to find that Asian girl.

      So how do you feel your DEILD attempts are going? I really want to add this to my strategies as if it fails at least I will have improved my recall. WIN WIN situation right?

      Good and bad
      The good is that setting the multiple alarms seems like it's training me pretty intensely to get good at not moving when I wake up - I also become aware faster and not moving increases the amount I recall (though this isn't evident from my DJ at the moment because of other factors).
      The bad is dealing with the alarm app, it's too buggy :/. I'm going to invest in a wrist alarm that only vibrates, which you can program all the settings from your phone I think.. I've always struggled to fall asleep fast so DEILD and other WILD techniques are a weak point for me personally.

      You should give it a go I'm mostly focusing on DEILD as part of a challenge I have with my Dream Buddy, Emnition
