I just did WBTB. The dream started out with me floating 30,000 feet above this city. I imagined that I had a parachute on and I began falling through the rapidly and tumbling. I remembered that imagining yourself falling can be a good way to relax into sleep paralysis but this wasn't what I had in mind. When I was 10 feet away from the ground, my speed slowly abruptly and I gently smacked the ground. I got up and looked around, lucid, and noticed I was in a field not too far away from my elementary school. It was late evening, just a few minutes after sundown and starry.

My elementary school or school in general has been a recurring dream element for the past year. Should probably start using it as a reality check.

Did WBTB. Lied back in bed and just daydreamed for a bit to catch a bit of sleep before work. There was moment where I was daydreaming myself walking down my neighborhood. That daydream turned into a lucid dream. It was cloudy outside with what I would describe as stationary tornadoes all around. I do have a fear of them like most sane people so I did my best to make it back to my house. My dream tried to do this weird thing where my movement kind of "sticks" when I am trying get somewhere fast. I figured out that if I use my mind to move instead of my dream-muscles I can overcome that.

After I found shelter, I tried to find my dream guide but for the life of me I can't ever summon them. Sadly, it is one of my most sought after goals. The most I've gotten was some glitching in the distance. I tried to "expect" them to be in the house behind me but the response I got was that the dream guide did not want to be bothered. I don't blame them, it was stormy outside.

Hmm, I might want to play around with "awareness of time" as a WILD anchor. Perhaps it was never about the many techniques I formulated over the years but the conflicting goals of wanting as much restful sleep as I can get within 30 minutes vs not wanting to over sleep and be late for work. Can't wait to test.
