Thread: Rman's Workbood: Intro to Lucid Dreaming

I am in training to drive a big rig.

I dreamed I was watching an old training video for trucking. My road instructor was in the movie; he was
about 25 years younger than he is in waking life.

I am pebble deaf in my right ear, which is something I have to deal with regularly. It bothers me a little.

Someone was telling me something but I couldn't hear him. My hearing was way worse than usual. I couldn't really hear anything
he was saying. I decided to clean my ears with baby oil, which is a trick I learned from Dr. Oz in waking life.

I had a false awakening in which my hearing improved, as my bad hearing was only in a dream.

I was playing Tetris last night in waking life.

I dreamed I was calculating miles driven on a trucking run by the
shape of each leg of the run.

Lesson 2

Two Reality Checks:

Look at my hand
Put my finger through my palm

I have been holding my nose as my second reality check, but
I think that would be a bit disturbing in a dream. I feel as though
it might wake me up due to the moment of possible discomfort.

Two Triggers:

Walking through doorways
Dogs

I will continue to be under a fair amount of stress, so I will practice
to own that piece of the puzzle now.
