Thread: Mild without daytime awareness and rcs?

My personal observation is that it is possible to become lucid without doing any RCs, whereby you rely on an induction technique that is working for you. However, doing RCs would help increase the chance to have an ld. I would strongly recommend going for a WBTB and intending to have an ld when going back to sleep, you can use a mantra "I realize I am dreaming" or something similar to help you achieve lucidity. You can do this with MILD pre bed as well as with WBTB.

Also, ADA and RCs do not need to become a burden during the day. Ada is simply about acknowledging your surroundings, no need to stare as if something wrong is happening etc, just pay slightly more attention to things around you. As far as RCs are concerned, you can try to be creative and think of something that is not that obvious. Take a second to imagine you are flying, try telekinesis, if it works you are dreaming. Try to read something and see if it changes. Ask yourself where you are going and if it makes sense. Finally, don't forget to review your dream signs. If you see a vampire, a bear or maybe a famous actor, chances are you are dreaming. Hope that helps. Good luck!
