RC-1 Cabletv

Sorry for the delay in creating this workbook, but my life has been very hectic lately, and even briefly lost internet connection. I will catch up with all work I have missed. CLASS NUMBER 1 - HOMEWORK Pick several RCs to do: 1) Nose pinch 2) Counting fingers 3) Look at watch twice Pick 1-3 RC triggers: 1) Everytime my watch beeps (ie on the hour every hour) 2) Whenever I receive a text Dream Signs: 1) Old house in grandparent's old house location + oval, gravel driveway 2) Sliding while trying to move quickly (I'm not sure if this is exactly what you mean, but whenever I try to run in a dream, particularly from a pursuer, I'll slide and usually overshoot where I am actually running)

CLASS NUMBER 2 - HOMEWORK Post#1: I was walking to the bus stop, and I thought "Oh, damn, I forgot my bus pass!", I started to walk back, and then thought "Wait a minute, this is a dream, I don't need a pass." I didn't really become lucid, because I didn't think about the fact that it was a dream after that. No control over my body or the dreamscape. I think Wavefunction missed becoming lucid because he failed to pay enough attention to the fact that he WAS dreaming, although this is probably due to the fact he never performed an ACTUAL RC. Depending on his natural day-to-day routine, it should come with time. Post#2: A week or so after I first became interested in lucid dreaming I had a near miss. I performed a reality check which involved changing the colour of a wall (stupid one i know). I couldn't change it so instead decided to go to my house and see if i was in bed or not .. I got to my house, checked my room, and my bed was empty... "ahh, cant be dreaming after all"... Just to make sure however i asked the family if i was dreaming or not.. They said no.. and i said... "Oh, nevermind then"... I think RooJ missed becoming Lucid due to an RC which may not of been the best choice, and then believing dream characters telling him he was awake. Perhaps another RC could have changed his mind and lucid status. Post#3: Last night I "woke up" in the middle of the night and went to the bathroom to get a drink of water and the light didn't work. So I stood there flicking the light switch stupidly for 10 seconds and "remembered" it burnt out. JackSparrow had a false awakening, and by performing an RC immediately after waking up he could have prevented the failure. That has happened to me quite a few times though, too..

Reality Checking With a Purpose: RC Process When I perform an RC I begin by looking around me, and being fairly critical of what I see, questioning if it makes sense (such as justifying why my english teacher is in my english class or so). Then I simply perform a nose pinch RC, and then either count my fingers or look at my watch twice. I think about that particular scenario and what it would be like if I was in a dream-state, too. I've decided I'll consider my dream goals after that too. If not, I'll replace that with thinking about that scenario in a dream-state.
