Thread: Is it easier to Lucidly Dream if you have done so before?

Hey I'm the latest newbie.

Once, I lucidly dreamed completely by accident (I was on an adventure holiday on a zipline, and the line broke, but I landed completely on my feet. Then I thought, "Huh? That's weird." and then slowly worked out I was dreaming. And I could control things, just like some of the experts do. I'd heard of lucid dreaming before, actually by watching an episode of "Star Trek: Voyager" years ago )

Anyway, I've decided that was a pretty darn cool experience, and would like to repeat it. What I would like to know is, if I have had such a dream before, will it be easier to get to have one again than it would be for someone has has just discovered what Lucid Dreaming is?

Also, I have had dreams where I have been "aware" before, its a recurring thing I have quite often when I know I am dreaming, and in my dream my eyes are open, but I freak and want to wake up, so I keep trying to open my eyes, then after a while i realise that they are open, and this freaks me out even more, because I think "If my eyes are open, how am I dreaming???". The annoying thing is after this revelation I wake up. Next time I do this I shall somehow try to calm down, if I can, but it hasnt happened for a while.

Iill try some techniques from the internet, anyway
Thanks for reading my looong post (well, long for me). The spelling and grammar is pretty good for me, too!
