At a point when I was very young, I remember being able to do something that I have always wondered about since. I don't quite understand how, but when going to bed, I was able to induce a dream-state from a conscious state by focusing intently on the darkness of the blanket over my head. It seemed as if I was slipping from reality for a second, and then the dream (which was non-lucid) would begin directly afterward. |

That whole notebook visualization that you used is pretty interesting. Did you think of that yourself? You must have had a good natural ability for dream recall. |

If I'm tired enough I can do that now. Somehow focusing on the darkness makes random shapes turn into concrete images. Motion helps even more, and I can imagine flying through space or skiing down a hill and that induces sleep very quickly. But it's not reliable for deep sleep as often I jump back to reality as if I'm rescuing myself from falling into sleep. |

Yeah basicly when i was younger i used to have a nightmare i didnt like therefore i thought of my way to counter that, and that way was to go to a dream, I would lie in complete silence and visualise a notebook that I "wrote" the dreams in, and visualise the writing and then allow myself to drift away. |
