The past week i have been listening to a loop voice recording of myself saying the words 'when i wake i will remember my dreams'.After the first day i saw that it worked and i was remembering 1-2 dreams a day and some bieng quiet long.
Now my dream recall is classed as average iv decided tonight as im at work to do my job as usual but with a new voice loop i made which is 'i will see my hands and will know that i am dreaming'.I read that stephen leberge when young chanted this for like an hour before bed and that same night he saw his hands in his dreams so i want to follow his mantra.
I listen and say it aloud or in my head for about 1-3 hours which is alot of times i chant this so im exited to see when i get the *hand dream*.....ofcourse iv been practising different techniques on and off for about 3 years now and reality checking comes natural to me before i become lucid and sumtimes i dont need to RC but i do only have like 2 LDs a month.
I do believe mantras can be very powerful if you use them in the right way and visualise the words and picture yourself for instance seing your hands in a dream.....has anyone else used mantras and how effective have they been for you? Thanx =D
