hello everyone,

this is my first post so be gentle

I have recently been trying to lucid dream for about the past month i'd say, and so far i have only had two lucid experiences but they were both fantastic and i'm sure all of you can relate to how great that first lucid dream feels! Anyways, basically with my lucid dreams (and non-lucid dreams) I find that they don't feel very realistic. I have read that lucid dreams are supposed to be very lifelike and vivid and it seems that only one has felt 'vivid' and the rest are usually pretty hazy. I have been using the MILD technique, keep a dream journal (with recall of 1-2 dreams per night), do reality tests throughout the day and have a glass of warm milk 1hr before bed. To be honest it hasn't been working that well which is a shame.

I'm getting a little impatient it feels like a huge effort with little results, i realise that this isn't the right attitude and patience is the key but i was kinda expecting more lucid dreams in one month than just two! Can I please get some advice on how to make my dreams feel more vivid and how to increase the frequency of having lucid dreams.

thank u
