Your thoughts on my RC routine?

**Komisoft** · 05-08-2012 08:22 PM

I have decided that I will do reality checks (Pinching my nose and looking at my palms) whenever I am close to my dream signs that are possible in the real world. I dream a lot about playing pokemon and minecraft, so maybe I should perform 30 second RC's every 10-15 minutes, while observing my surroundings? I aslo have frequent dreams about being at school. So should I perform my 2 types of checks at school for a couple of seconds and observe my surroundings also? If you could give any information, it would be great! Thanks for reading

The absolute best thing to do is to drill it into your mind,
so that whenever your mind wanders it automaticaly jumps to doing an RC. For instance whenever i forget my keys i also remember to do an RC, wenever i start to day dream i purposefully day dream about lucidity etc. Off course I also have rc written on my hand and i do one everytime i sit down ( This is the hardest). I believe that associating body parts or worldy actions to a RC is relativily hard compared to just making yourself obsessed with it lol

. Good luck

Thanks for the advice. But I heard that doing RC's all the time is pointless, unless they link to your dream signs? I'm not sure

In my personal experience, a RC should be something you find a connection with, even better if it will be something you will easily recognize in a dream.

For me the color blue is prominent in my dreams, that is to say it stands out more than other colors and sometimes seems out of place. I've made it a dream sign and whenever I see vivid blue in reality I do an RC, which usually involves touching the colored object.

You need to find signs and RC methods that work for you. If they don't hold any significance for you they will fail to work.

I will experiment with my dream signs and maybe run into new dream signs

Or just try ADA. As some would say "an all day RC, the dream is your Dream sign"

Minecraft dreams?! I had many!
I had one a few days ago but it looked like the exact same thing!

I have not yet researched ADA. I will now though

I put post-it notes all around my room on objects I interact with on a regular basis. They all say, "Am I Dreaming?" When I see them, or interact with the object they are attached to, I look at my hands, then around the room, and ask myself, "Am I asleep? Is this a dream?"
