It may, I find I can block out sounds if I just try to zone out.

Affirmations are tricky. It takes a long time to feel the effect and adjust the affirmation properly. I personally use a list of my dreamsigns + common RCs. For example I would say that "If I ever find myself in a particular classroom I will always and instantly become aware that I"m dreaming", "If I ever experience a strong or weird emotion/see something bizzare I will instantly perform a RC", etc. Then I go over a list of 3 RCs: "If I ever look at a digital clock and see it change/black out/act weird I will instantly realize that I'm dreaming", then I go over the light switch RC, and then over the text RC. It takes only a couple minutes.
For more effect you may want to say these affirmation every time you go lay in bed - so if you woke up in the middle of the night and went to the bathroom, repeat the affirmations once you get back. It gets annoying sometimes, but it gets your mind focused on lucid dreaming.


Lol, I dont remember posting about a plank of wood.



And yes, this technique works well in the middle of the night, best if you go to sleep early. Reentering the dreams after 9-10 hours of sleep is tricky. For example I start seeing fragmented dreams that are like 10-15 minutes long, then I wake up, look at the clock and drift off again. This is a good time to reenter dreams, but it is hard to do if the light is shining in your room, there's noise outside, etc...


As for WILD - you may experience the genuine WILD onset, but I wouldnt count on it if you are trying the focus on the image thingie.

Haha, I swear I remember you posting that you focused on a plank of wood as you enter the dream, and when you got in you were looking at a fence. I mean, I checked and I didn't find it, but I still swear you did. Whatever, It seems like a good idea to me!

Nah, I dont use planks of wood.
I use familiar rooms and doorways. Sometimes I'm aware, but cant remember which location i"m supposed to use or the last reentry on that location failed. So I randomly select an image that is intimately familiar (like my old appartment, my grandmas house, my summer house, my old school, etc) and focus on it. Familiar rooms/doorways work good cause they are easier for the mind to recreate.

Here is the plank


Last night before i went to bed i did again my affirmations but this time i was doing it for about 20 minutes in more than one way.
I wrote them Down , i was saying them loudly and i entered them in a subliminal program.
And it really worked.
I woke up 3 times after a dream , i had a great recall at the morning(i'm the worst recaller) and today i was performing all day RCs(i always forget them).
Although i couldn't perform a Deild it was a great step for me.
Today i might even succeed ^_^

Ah there we go!!! I knew I saw it somewhere lol.

EDIT: Going to bed soon! That means a LD. At the rate I've been getting better with this technique, I'm due.\

THANK YOU FOR THIS TECHNIQUE!

Ok, reporting results...

I was lazy for a long time to try this technique properly but I did last night.

I managed to stay still after waking from a dream. Few seconds later I wasnt sleepy all, I didn't want to sleep anymore, but I continue to stay still. But there was somthing strange but couldn't figure out what. Then it stroke me, I was asleep and dreaming that I m still there waiting to fall asleep! I did a reality check and I was dreaming!

That was cool, I didn't return to my dream but I was lucid anyway in a kind of false wakening. This lucid didn't last but it a good start, I m going to test this method more.

So DEILD:1 so far

Actually, I think that's what happened to me... I did the tech, and got into SP. While the vibrations and sounds were going on I couldn't move, but then they stopped and so I assumed that I just didn't get into SP. I should have done a RC, I wasn't even tired anymore after they stopped!

Oh, Interesting!
I should add this into the first post, I don't know why I never thought of that before.

That happened to me a few times last night, now I know I should do a Reality Check when it does happen

I didn't get a chance to try it today, I'm afraid.

I know, when I read Lupo's post I was like, Ah crap! Oh well, I will give it another shot tonight.

This technique seriously makes WILD alot easier.
I tried WILD in the middle of the night last night, and got to SP right away, less than a minute
At school so don't want to post alot, might not go through.
Try WILD after doing this though, I would like to get some results on that.
If anyone easily did WILD while learning DEILD, that's why!

a few quick questions...


1. Alarm clocks have never woke me up so the only time i record my dreams are in the morning, can this be done in the morning? if not how can i wake myself up in the night.


2. When i do wake up from a dream i automaticly open my eyes, will this effect if my body still thinks im dreaming?

1.It is possible to do in the morning if you still feel sleepy. If you usually wake up in the morning refreshed and get out of bed right away then you might not have much success.

2. Yes, if you open your eyes your chances of success would be lower. If you open your eyes and see morning light your chances would be even less.

The best time to do reentery is at night when it is dark outside. If you got to do a RC, do so with one eye rather than both. It is important to be able to fall back asleep fast when trying to do this technique, so you will reenter a dream rather than start a new one.

1. If you want to wake yourself up in the night, set an alarm for every time you are in an REM State.
Of course it will most likely jolt you awake, but your body may become accustomed to waking up at these times and you may be more likely to perform a DEILD in the middle of the night.
You CAN Do a DEILD in the morning when you wake up, it is possible if you are still tired, which you most likely would be

2. Sometimes the waking up point is easier to catch and sometimes it's not.
When it's not you would open your eyes right away, but if you do, you must shut them promptly and keep them shut, if you are incredibly tired it may still work, it lowers your chances however.
It would lower chance of a Lucid to like 70%, and as Ev said, if light greeted your eyes, maybe down to a 40-50% chance of an LD.

Haha... I got another, this morning. Right after my lucid dream about "The Rocky Horror Picture Show"... What? We were doing the time warp!... but ya... I made sure I stayed still when I woke up, then I fell right back into the song! It was awsome... Best song ever!

Hah....I actually failed a DEILD today.
Well it just goes to show you, no method is perfect, but it still works!

Ya... I got put in the 5 percentile, rofl.

I failed too tonight. I think I m starting to concentrate too much to what I m going to do, or I m too excited from my previous results, and I cant get to sleep. I trainned my self to stay still but minutes passes and I couldn't sleep anymore, because of the excitement or maybe because had enaugh sleep.

Maybe we need a particular thought to consentrate so we can sleep in a matter of seconds. Thinking the last scene of the dream I woke from didn't work for me

I usually don't concentrate on anything....
Allthough, here is my surefire way to do a DEILD, I came up with this alternate technique the other day:


1. Get up when you normally do (Best on weekends because of school and whatnot)
2. Stay up for three hours, if you're tired, that's great, have a shower, eat some breakfast, and relax on a chair
3. After three hours have passed, you will get up from your chair, and go to your actual bed.
4. Do the usual thing, go back to sleep, and dream. (I remember all dreams I have by doing this)
5. Perform DEILD upon awakening.
6. Your body will be so tired, even if you open your eyes and move, you should still be able to make it to a LD.

No proof that this works except on me.
Try it out on the weekends or weekdays!
Good Luck

It must be the longer REM periods your body has later on that makes this possible


Edit: lol! I found it funny that if you search "Lucid Dream Re entry" on google, my topic comes up

perhaps someone can put together a very short MP3 with a shorn connery type voice modified with a slightly robotic and echo room effect saying "Remain Perfectly Still...". Then set it up as an alarm clock MP3 - to go off say 6 hours after sleeping.

After being awoken by this message, you will automatically be reminded to remain still, therefore helping achieve the DEILD

... but you'll still have to roll over and turn it off...

Not if it's a short MP3 file, then it will end and you can still remain motionless.

just one sort phrase and it stops. by the time you wake its finished. the volume would need to be adjusted to just wake you up without being loud enough to scare the sleep out of you.

if someone has got a good, authorative, shorn connery type voice recording ill do the MP3.
