Welcome Sean! I remember your name from the competition. |

Hey guys. I'm Sean; I'm 15; and I live in california. I've gotten into lucid dreaming in the past but usually only for short amounts of time and I used supplements which I dont want to do anymore. I got back into this about 3 weeks ago and have had 2 lucid dreams since (DILD's). In one of them, I didnt even do a RC, i was just lucid. |

Hey fogelbise! Thanks for the quick reply! I really think it's cool that you come on here and help teach people lucid dreaming and help them through the process. |

Additional question: Ive heard to use mantras in the future tense (I will realize im dreaming) to use prospective memory with MILD, but I've also heard it should be in present tense (I am dreaming). Which is more effective with MILD? |

I added numbers for ease of reply. 1. Your welcome and thank you for the nice feedback. 2. I have read and believe that mediation has many benefits, so why not give it a try. 3. You could post how your practices are going and any changes that you have made to your practices. If you had a great week a few weeks back but not so much recently, you can go back to see what you might have changed. It can be a way to track what works and doesn't work for you personally. You can also do this in your home dream journal if you prefer, but doing it here would make it easy to find in the future. |

Thanks Mr. Fogel! Also, I love seeing your LD count go up as the nights go by hehe Last time I checked it was 118 but now it's a whopping 121! Wow! |

Me too! With determination, you too can see your count climb and climb. |

Alright, this weekend i will be going through my dream journaling of the past month and be writing all the dreamsigns here! I will look for patterns and such |

Good idea Sean! It can often be fun as well to see some of the dreams that you forgot about. Dream signs are one piece of the puzzle that you can use to give you more chances to become lucid, so don't forget to continue your other practices (or puzzle pieces) that you mentioned enjoying...but I am sure that you already knew that. When I review my dream signs or potential dream signs I just circle the word(s) in my dream journal that correspond to the dream sign and then tally which ones are the most common. I also find that it can be useful to go back every few nights and review the most recent dream signs as the same ones sometimes show up for me a few nights in a row. |

Tonight, I will do WBTB, get up and read a bit about lucid dreaming. I then will meditate on the phrase "I am dreaming". After, I will lay down and do SSILD until sleep |

Mr. FOGEL!! You won't BELIEVE the lucid I had last night! Omg the SSILD technique is like freaking magic! I had a LD probably like ~20minutes long and I even did Element Manipulation!!! |
|

Whoa, that's awesome, congrats! Sounds like you had a lot of fun. I'd love to read your dream journal! |
|
Remembered around 5 dreams last night! Pretty solid! |
|

5 dreams! Nice job, that is a significant count! I have heard people say that SSILD helped them recall dreams better. I think that it is much like the way most lucid related or dream related work/thoughts during a WBTB help with recall. |
|
That is a very interesting observation Mr. Fogel! |

Alright here goes! My dreamsigns! |
