Hi, my name is Rory and I'm sort of new to lucid dreaming. I have been trying to induce lucid dreaming for a week or so now and believe I was very close last night. I am starting out using the mild technique, for i have done a lot of research and it states it is best for beginners. Last night while laying still and repeating my phrase there was a loud high pitched almost radio like sounding frequency. Then there were very loud foot steps. I was disturbed by this and when I went to check my halls, nothing. Is this something along the lines of sleep paralysis? I could move but I was just curious. please help and thank you!!
