Return To Lucid Dreaming (Help)

So its been four days now. I've recorded a short dream or two each night and have had a really low level lucid once.

I've also found a really good dream sign that has appeared in at least one dream a night. I work at a grocery store called Wegmans (Teenage Job For The Win) and I swear I have nightly dreams. Once I get back to doing rc's I'll have a good start. Literally every night I have a wegmans dream. Like last night during one dream, I was on register during a thunderstorm, and on another night, I was in a hunger games fight there.

Now I just have one question. Even before I left lding, I never had that amazing LD moment. I never had a high level lucid. I am able to tell I am dreaming, but inside the dream, I don't understand what that means. I don't see how amazing it is. I just keep doing the nose RC (Best one ever). I just want to know how I can reach higher levels of awareness so I can have one of those profound LD experiences. Any help is appreciated.

My lucid dreams are very short.

is it a bad idea to set alarms 5-15 minutes apart all the way from 3-7am? One of my alarms woke me out of my Lucid dream :(
If so, for someone who wakes up at around 7am, what are some good alarms to help with recall and wbtb?

oh and also, I have failed to fly in every LD I have ever had :(

Hello Suck4Luck. I will try the best to help you. So here are some advises:

Getting vivid LDs can take some time. It took me arround 3 weeks to get my 1st vivid LD. For some it takes days for other it can even take months or years to even get a single LD.

WILD: WILD is a method that CAN be a bit scary but if you succeed and get used to it, you can get VERRY vivid LDs. I tried it but still didn't succeed.
Here is a tutorial:
WILD Tutorial - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views


WBTB: This can help allot. I personaly use this metho and all my vivid dreams happend with WBTB. WBTB means Wake Back To Bed. Here is a tutorial: WBTB Tutorial - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views


Choose a easy mantra: I used to use:
I will realize that i am dreaming.

That was a bit complicated.

So now i use: I am dreaming.


ADA: This means all day awareness. Basically do reality checks during the day and ask yourself if you are dreaming. I recommend a app called dreamer. It will remind you. If you cant download it then set up your calendar on your phone or ipod .

I hope this helps you. And good luck with dreaming

Thanks for responding. I started lding in 2011, left, came back in 2012, left, and now I'm back. I've had over 20-30+ lucid dreams but haven't had a vivid dream.

In terms of WILD, I had some bad Sp experiences a few years back.

I once woke up fully aware but was in SP. I had never heard of or had it before, but I really did think I was dying. I couldn't open my eyes and I heard strangle voices ).

I've also had a few groggy half awake ones. THEY ARE THE WORST. I didnt comprehend I couldn't move, so I tried to move anyways.

I've don't WBTB AND DEILD, and some MILD.

For now I'm just going to focus on recall before I try any of the methods.

Thanks
