Your LD breakthrough

[AirRick101]

Hey, I was just wondering what technique you credit your LD's credit to. I thought about posting a poll, but I'm sure that many methods unlisted are possible. For example, did reality testing do the job? Dreamsigns? MILD? and so on?

I would say a combination of all.

For me, something just clicked. It just happened. My brain seemed to suddenly engage.

Generally MILD with wake/back to bed method. But i did a WILD yesterday

[dougdrums]

Well, now I can just do them natrally, but that is how I started out.

nothing I just kept a journal. I don't even do that anymore, and I still have an LD every other night. there;s the oocasianal MILD on a saturday morning but other than that....nada.

For me it was a dreamsign, but I think it was more luck then anything else.

Me and Paperdoll EP were discussing this earlier. In my past LD's i have used no technique to attain lucidity...just the fact that i am dreaming, its a 'feeling' i get, thats different to the waking world. While WILD, MILD, and all that stuff works for some people, it just doesnt 'float my boat'...

[AirRick101]

Wow, so it's not the techniques in themselves, I see. I know that there is no right way to have an LD. Oh, what about anyone who has been LDing naturally without learning from an outside source of techniques? If you could dive back into your memory, could you try your best to say what you did to experience LD's? Was it surprising to see if your personal methods resembled the popular ones nowadays?

I'm trying a new technique; its called: "Go-to-school-come-home-read-gorge-on-food-fall-asleep-do-homework-workout- furiously-drink-tea-go-to-the-forums" GTSCHRGOFFADHWFDTGRTF tonight i shall be testing its success

I think that its better to start with a technique and when you are comfortable with the dreamworld and learn to recognise his texture you'll have them without the techniques.
