Thread: Too many techniques?

I know FILD is not really a technique, but if rubbing fingers together helps some people get lucid then whats the problem?

Like supreme said, the more techniques the better!

Just that it's touted as an individual technique, and not something you can use to assist with a technique. That's like calling NOS a race car. It confuses people. Much better to keep things simple, make sure people understand the basic techniques, then when they want to try one they can make a list of all of the little tips and hints people have offered and they can pick what they think will work. Instead, everyone tries FILD straight up and doesn't even realize that it's just a DEILD, and that you could wiggle your toes, or your ears, or your nostrils, and have the same effect. I mean, just think if we had TILD, EILD, and NILD on top of FILD. Why not just have DEILD, and let people know they can do kegel exercises to help them accomplish a DEILD, if they so desire. There's no need for KILD. It's just something you can slap on to a regular, straight up DEILD.

We're open to new techniques. The new techniques just have to be proven to work through the Dreamviews Research Guidelines.
