Thread: Best Technique for a student?

hey guys i have heard about lots of good ld techniques but a lot of them seem to make you wake up in the middle of the night

i have been trying the MILD but since i have alot to think about i just can seem to focus on lucid dreaming

anyone have a good technique besideds the DILD if there arent i can just keep trying the MILD but if anyone could give me a not so known technique that would be cool

thanks

Try Can-WILD. Pretty amazing...it works for me.

Yes a WILD is a good technique, but it is one that usually requires you to wake up in the middle of the night. But you can also do it during naps so it's worth a try.

Well, provided we're talking middle/high school student, then I assume you get up early and don't really have a convenient time to nap within 5 or so hours of waking. If this is, indeed, the case, then I would stick with MILD or DILD. If you have a hard time remembering to RC, then just leave yourself some reminders, like sticky notes, etc. If you put effort into your attempts, just about any method out there will get you lucid. Granted, some methods work better than others for different people, but when some methods (like anything involving WBTB in your case) become nearly impossible to pull off and work into your schedule, MILD works just fine (it is also my method of choice). Naiya is our residential MILD queen...try dropping her a line.

Good luck!

I am with you, I never have time to try any other techniques, but I think DILDs are the most impressive to be able to have regularly anyway.

One other that I might suggest, though it does involve waking up early, is a shortened form of WBTB, wake up an hour or more earlier than you need to be up, and just stay up for maybe 5 minutes thinking about lucid dreaming, then go back to bed, I have had quite a bit of success with this and it doesn't deprive you of that much sleep.
