Thread: Lucas(Potter)'s Workbook

Nothing really happened, but a song playing in real life played in my dream, that was fun!

Yup, sometimes music and sounds from waking can affect dreams can affect dream, one time i even WILDed that way, some people were noisy in my home before i fell asleep for WILD and after noise was gone it returned in form of HH and then dream transition, haha.

Finally home! May my comfy bed bring me many lucid dreams!

Nothing new to report, I'm afraid. I have high hopes for tonight, though!

I've been having a hard time remembering my dreams lately. Usually, when I wake up, I can remember most of it, but one minute later... it's all gone.

Sometimes recall drops can happen, it's can be just random or life related. Have you changed your sleeping schedule recently? Or have you had stress or some major changes in life? Those can cause recall drop, but either way, think positive, it will be back eventually for sure
Also, keep your dream writing tools close to bed so you can write dream before recall goes away. Also meditation or just relaxation for a bit can help recovering them, i often find myself remembering some dream details while relaxing/meditating before nap/WBTB.

My recall kinda disappeared after I got back from my trip... the last day was pretty chaotic. I left five am from the hotel, got a bus ride for four hours, waited for six hours, got two flights, then waited for another three hours before another flight. I slept a lot, but they were al like five minute naps. After that day, I've been unable to remember my dreams as clearly as I'm used to...

That said, I took a nap today and I could remember it pretty well, so yay! And I almost got lucid!!! Actually, I did get lucid, but five seconds later, I convinced myself I had woken up... weird, but getting there!

Congrats! But please do not say you almost got lucid when you did get lucid even for five seconds. Even a five second lucid counts, and you mind deserves to be awarded for a job well done.

Congrats on lucid and what JoannaB said, mini lucid dreams(As i personally call them) are good and are signs of progress!
As for recall, sounds like you have transitioned between time zones alot and your sleeping schedule was not the best, from what i heard travel between timezones can temporarily affect sleep in ways, but either way nice that your recall is getting back now.

Thanks. I was just a little disappointed that it lasted so little and that I didn't even manage to do anything...

As for today, I slept for four hours and can't remember anything. The only thing I remember is dreaming that I was late (I woke up six times thinking I was indeed late... which I wasn't) and I think I dreamt about my dog... then again, the little bastard jumped on my bed last night and I woke up with him sleeping next to me, so... who knows?

Anyway, I've slept very little last night, so now that I'm home and have had a greasy lunch (oh, McDonald's...), it's nap time!

Bedtime! I'll try to have a WILD tonight... I feel like I haven't been trying hard enough to have a LD lately.

Good luck!

I had a lucid dream AND did the TOTM!!!

Awesome! Now if only I could have an LD too - send some good vibes my way, ok?

Always!

Oh, I forgot to mention this, but I had SP last night. It went away pretty fast, though. I'm so happy that I managed to fix this. When I first found DV, it was because I used to get stuck on SP a lot, but now I know how to snap out of it in like... five seconds. Mission accomplished!

My name is orange and I have this now!



Exciting!

Congratulations dude!

Aww, thank you!!!

Bringing this back!

Things I've done in lucid dreams:

1. go through a wall
2. fly
3. summon someone
4. look at the mirror

Things I want to do in future lucid dreams:

1. talk to myself/my subconscious/my dream guide
2. turn into a man
3. have ideas for a book
4. visit a place I've never been to (for example, a concentration camp)
5. see what my mind thinks the future will be like
6. talk to someone (famous) I've never met (sort of done this when I summoned Lindsay, but it'd be interesting to talk to other famous people)
7. turn into an animal (maybe a wolf?)
8. use an elevator to find out things about me
9. ask a DC if I'm dreaming
10. go to Hogwarts
11. shoot fireworks out of my hands
12. ask a DC what my name is

And on that lovely note... bedtime!

Oh, and just want to point out that last night I had my tenth lucid dream since July! I guess that ten LDs in two months and a half aren't really all that impressive (it's what? An average of four lucid dreams per month?), but it's still an accomplishment to me!

Congrats on tenth lucid and TOTM!

Thanks!!!

My dream last night was so boring that I wasn't even interested in writing it down. Now I regret that cause I don't remember much... I'll be better tonight and I'll write down my dream, even if it's just as boring (or more boring!) I don't want to get demotivated again.

So... here's to a lucid dream tonight!
