Haha thanks hashmash!
yeah it was fun to walk about and not be a student =].
This morning i was barely able to recall anything, i got wrenched from sleep by my housemate running around the house like an elephant....
I am able to recall some fragments of being on some sort of holiday resort, it had a pool and a beach.... And i remember diving around in the pool, my family were there, including cousins etc.
I am really frustrated cause i remember thinking to myself, "ive not put any sun-cream on here.... And ive not burned" - by this point it was like on day 3 of the holiday.... So i was so close but didnt get lucid. Instead sun cream just appeared and i smothered myself in it.
Fingers crossed for tonight!
Haha too bad about the roomate... i swear, there is just no respect for dreamers :D Good luck tonight!
Lol yeah man i agree, more respect for the dreaming community!!
Im having some really vivid dreams recently, its really cool but if i am totally honest with you guys, im getting a bit sick of non-lucids =P.
Ive stopped using an alarm to wake me up for WBTB because i seem to wake up in the early mornings anyway and i must be still in my REM cycle cause i go back to dreaming very easily! Think i might have to try some DEILD's and then use the WBTB technique as more of a treat like you matte, it doesnt seem to be working for me and im doing it every night.
Im bolstering up my reality checks i know i'm due another lucid soon =P.
Here is the link to last nights dreams, its a fun one! Stealing and skating!
Nice dream nito! That was really cool, skating on the ramps, throwing that dude through a window :D Your definitely right about the vividness, keep it up dude!
Yeah man that was a very long and cool dream! I know it's hard to stay motivated when everyone around you seems to be getting lucid, and you're not. But try to stay confident and don't get discouraged! The harder you try and want to have them, the easier it gets. It's alot of work though I know, but TRUST me, one day you'll start having them regularly and almost at will.
I think you should try it like you said, to make WBTB something "special." It's worked for me quite well in the past and the placebo kicking in works wonders.
Just keep it up man, try to stay motivated through these hard times and KNOW it will get better. I myself never gave up even though I felt like I wanted to at times, taking a break does work wonders though, so if you feel like you're losing your enthusiasm, just take a week off and come back. Make sure you know why you're taking the break, and make sure you're going to want to come back full time once the break is over.
Those long dreams you have are awesome though, so don't see them for something they're not. Keep on dreaming!
Thanks matte, i think its just cause it feels like ages since my last LD.... But when i think about it, it really wasn't long ago. Im just hoping that i can manage to DILD near the start of a dream and have a really long Lucid, that would be ace!
I'm 100% not taking a break, i feel that if i just go for it. It will happen!
Im going to start the WBTB's as a treat, itll give me more rest too =P.
I think my main problem is that i dont RC enough during the day, i recently downloaded an app that reminds me to reality check every 45 mins... Do you think 45 mins is a good amount or should it be less, or more?
Yeah, i know im quite lucky really to just have long dreams. They are awesome and i enjoy them, i just enjoy lucids so much more =P.
Good! :) But don't be afraid to take one incase you feel like you're stuck. They can even increase your chances. Yes, every 45 minutes is a good start. Try to get into the habit of doing them, and then try without the alarm.
If you're not trying it already, ADA is pretty nice and has worked quite well for me when I've combined it with MILD and WBTB.
Hehe, i wont be afraid to take a break if i fell i need to. Its just, ill wait til im truly disheartened for that... Right now i'm not, im still fairly excited, ill crack it soon.
Im also heading to town tomorrow to buy Exploring The World Of Lucid Dreaming.... Gonna read it before bed every night to give my subconscious a kick up the arse =P.
Yeah that's what I thought hashmash =].
Ok so last night i had this really really long and vivid dream. I was back at school and I'd missed a maths exam, we were studying for other subjects, by this time it was quite far in the dream. I opened a window in the classroom and jumped out, and flew! I'm not sure whether i became lucid or not, I don't think so but still. What is interesting is I remember reading on here that if you focus your eyes and make them blurry, you know when you like flex them, its a trick to make you move faster. Anyway I did this as I was slowly floating upwards, and my speed increased astronomically! So just a heads up this trick definitely works! It was fun =p.
Oh yeah that sounds like a lucid man. Even if it wasn't, flying is so cool!
Yeah it was extremely fun, I must have been semi lucid to think about what I've read on here, I'm impressed, least I know I will be able to remember tasks when dreaming. I'm gonna do a WBTB tonight and I'm pretty confident I'll get lucid =].
Awesome dream nito and i'll be sure to keep that trick in mind next time i try to fly. Loving the confidence, good luck with your WBTB!
No dreams recalled from last night =[. Except a fragment of accidently cutting someones throat and then trying to bandage it.... Lol! (he was able to walk away, maybe i should become a doctor ;) )
i failed at my WILD attempt, when i woke up i was so tired so im going to try it again tonight =].
Idk i dont trust doctors :P Good luck tonight man! Did you get that stephen laberge book? Im gonna try to get a copy today or tomorrow.
Haha, doctors I trust, it's clowns that I don't, nobody is ever that happy all time unless they are up to something ;p .
Ok so no lucid last night, I'm going to start trying MILD from tonight onwards, going to visualise myself at school, on the grounds becomin lucid, as a lot of my dreams involve school somehow.
I did have an incredibly fun dream about me being a predator and using my wrist-blades to decapitate people, I was trying to escape, but to protect somebody as well, had a lot of fun stealthing around and killing scientists/military. I know that sounds fucked up but it was fun, I will post it in my DJ later today :d
Lol that's an interesting theory on clowns :P And just as it can be fun to kill people in a game, it can be fun in a dream too, so I won't judge :)
Oh and also, heres my dream from last night, its not long... But i was pretty high when i went to bed so not suprised!
PREDATOR!
Dang nito that dream was badass! You were demolishing them, very nicely done. "i tap him on the shoulder, he turns.... As he does so i un-sheathe the wrist-blade and stab him in the neck as hard as i can, i rip his head off"....Awesome! :D
Oh ok cool, i will look into ordering it then
Good luck with your MILD attempts dude!
Lmao, was a highly satisfying dream!!! could have had so much more fun if i got lucid!
Yeah i was well disappointed when i walked into waterstones and got told that =P. Im pretty sure you can download the PDF off any torrent site too. Thats what ive done just to tide me over until the book comes. I got it for £4.15 so thats pretty sweet!!
Thanks for the best wishes mate,
cant wait to fight you in the dream world :P
Badass dream indeed, and that's the kind of competition I want in my dream when I'm going to fight you guys! :)
Haha that's the kind of competition I want to give you in the dreamworld matte, don't want your DC of me to be weak. Wanna be at least little bit of a challenge :P . I'm determine to give young good fight matte, haha.
My dream from last night!
Just so you know i do NOT grow cannabis in waking life :P
Dreamy dream!!
