Had a few nights trying MILD and SSILD but not much results. One beginning of a WILD which was nice and a v short DILD last night, which was nice to have something after a few days of no carryover. A couple of nights ago woke at 5, hard to wake, wrote dream and went to bathroom and light stretch, then no sleep for next hour until I got up :roll: still...meant more time for morning meditation
Undaunted anyway, after a general good lucid spree, I'm still thinking I can progress to the level of lucid ease I'm looking for. Having a good dream goal seems useful. Last night my goal was to meet an embodiment of dream wisdom and also to call to meet my shadow (which has led to some interesting lucids before). I also want to develop a fun/exciting goal to have alongside more exploratory/spiritual/psychological goals. I think the fun goals access a different motivation which is useful and has crossover. As I was hiking the other day I thought how much fun it would be to transform into a horse and gallop, or in general to be able to shift perspective into different dream characters or not have perception confined to the dream ego...Going out tonight so prob wont be best night for induction but def still on the job :)
Fogelbise, in a different thread you were mentioning the peg system for remembering dream goals. I've been playing with memory systems lately. A couple of times I used them to remember dreams during the night rather than waking and writing. In Daniel loves book he talks about using memory systems to remember long lucids and also to remember dream goals while in the lucid. It could be handy during a lucid if you could recall some of the sequence and tie it into a memory system, but I've found sometimes If my mind wanders into to much remembering during the dream it feels a bit like im not in the dream and I wake...Perhaps with more confidence and expectation it may work. Curious what your use of the peg system has been...
