      Recurring Dreams -- How do I turn these into Lucids?

      I've started having recurring dreams.

      Every night (5-6 nights a week) I will remember a dream where I'm running with my old cross country dream. I know that I don't run anymore, but I always experience these scenes, and I feel like I should be able to recognize them as a dream.

      I guess I've reached a good point where I've started to notice a pattern in my dreams. But I've been keeping a dream journal for over a month know and been doing reality checks, but have still not seen sucess. I think that if I can figure out how to capitalize on this pattern i've discovered, I will start to have Lucid Dreams.

      But how do I do it?

      How would you reccomend I capitalize on this pattern?

      Sounds like youve got a distinctive dreamsign.. its just the clicking now eh.

      Could you explain in detail what this dream is like? Do you have an online dream diary? If not... Is there other runners? Are you first? Where are you running/What are the surrounds like?

      Maybe autosuggestion (if you dont already try it) whilst hitting the sack/WBTB saying "The nextime I RUN, I will REALITY CHECK".. Actually try to make it the very last thing you think of before you drift to sleep. Believe you will. Imagine running in your cross country dream then doing the reality check you normally do and becoming lucid. I WILL HAPPEN!

      Hope this helps GOODLUCK

      AWAKE?

      I don't have an online dream diary, and the dreams change. Most consist of me running with my old team. Sometimes, I just see old team mates. Whatever the case it's my dreamsign.

      While I'm awake now, whenever I see anything that reminds me of running; whenever I talk to anyone I've ever run with; whenever I think of my old HS; I try to question whether or not I'm dreaming.

      And it's working! I had my first Lucid in several months last night!

      I was talking to a man in a construction/repair shop, and he told me that repairing a car is harder than running a 5k. I dismissed it at first, then remember thinking "Wait, did he just talk about running?"

      I then looked at a price tag near me for a "Krika" product. I looked again and it was a "Skrika". I was dreaming . At first I didn't believe it because it felt so real, but I just convinced myself "Nick, you're dreaming, you can do whatever you want!" So naturally I started hitting on the women mechanics. I slipped and made a fool of myself, but I told myself -- you're just dreaming, it's not a big deal, so I kept laying my moves on.

      Then my alarm went off!

      My alarm went off 10 minutes earlier, so I was in a half-awake half-asleep mode. I just forgot to turn my alarm back off. I had class shortly though, it's probably a good thing.

      Yeah sounds awesome, you´re doing it exactly as Stephen LaBerge proposes!
      One way to turn this dreamsign into a lucid dream is to visualize the whole dream in your head before going to bed and when the dream sign occurs, visualize that you recognize it as a dreamsign, perform a reality check and become lucid!

      Hey! My first lucid was because of a recurring dream symbol... I was talking to my mother on the phone about how I keep dreaming about Tornados. I told her, sort of jokingly, that I was going to make the tornado go away the next time I saw one. Sure enough, the next one... I cleared the sky, all the clouds and saw the bare blue sky. Ran up the hill, to the house... went nuts cause I was so excited, flipped on light switches, threw things, got a helicopter hovering right outside the window BUT I could not figure out how to open the window to get to it (dream brain wasn't tough enough yet!) hehe. I still remember my first and second LD's... I remember a lot of them. Eventually after so much dreaming, dream recall, lucid dreams, false awakenings, your dream brain gets so strong and you gain more ability. I have been dreaming forever and just the other night I did the spin move and went to a whole other place. It was sweet. I'm also gaining much more control over my flying skills.
