Two sides of a coin You're right, the progress doesn't have to start with dreams, and it sounds like you've done a lot of good for yourself in your waking. I wouldn't worry too much about lost opportunity or regret, it's just the path you take.

I have a small iron necklace that I wear constantly, in dreams I can just hold it and it makes the dream more vivid and stable and gives me a "boost" to my powers. I have an issue with bodies of water in my dreaming life and relying on my necklace helps me face it. Maybe you could try something like that with your mushrooms? Or another dream object?

Great luck!
