Ive decided to start trying lucid dreaming again

**ExtraSour** · 02-07-2013 02:05 PM

We'll i went inactive for a little on the forums and i guess kind of gave up on lucid dreaming for a little too (because of a dry spell) anyway like the title says I've decided to get back into lucid dreaming and stay active on the forum again. Hopefully this time i do better at the dream journal thing :/ last time i only remembered to write down my dreams like 2 times a week. This time I'm going to make sure and have like a note on my ceiling saying WRITE DOWN YOUR DREAM! We'll hopefully i don't hit any dry spells this time around (i most likely will) but if i do i wont give up this time. anyway wish me luck

Good for you and welcome back. A lil tip for easy LD is as son as you wake up and look at the clock or whatever go back to bed, I don't do it cause im a heavy sleeper but I've done it and its priceless.

Welcome back!

Indeed, dream journal has a huge impact on your recall and amount and quality of your dreams. Even if you don't remember anything, write down something positive. Good luck

Welcome back! :yumdumdoodledum:
Reminder is indeed a good idea for starting out, also good idea would be to remind it to yourself regularly through the day and before going to sleep: "When i wake up i recall my dreams and write them to my DJ".

Good luck!

last night i was dreaming i was pushing my thumb hard against a button on a wall to open a door, and the door woulnd't open so i pressed as hard as i could. i then realized and said in my dream "im dreaming, this is a dream". at that moment the floor gave way form the building i was in and i starting falling. i had an amazing feeling as i was falling, as i fell, i could see the building/cityteh building was in get furher away and i fell into a black star filled void. i felt so heavy as i was falling and slowly woke up and still had the feeling...then i dozed back off and dreamed a lot more. ALMOST went lucid and kept it going.

I've been telling myself I'm going to do just that for quite a while now... Good luck with your quest. I shall join you soon.

In addition to writing them down. I found that reviewing your dream journal briefly before going to sleep also helps
