Thread: Paige's Workbook :)

I had 4 lucids today! Not sure what triggered it, but I had a bunch of false awakenings. I told myself in the second one that I would reality check in the next dream, and weirdly, I remembered and got lucid. The first and last lucid were uneventful, and I didn't have control. The second one was pretty cool, I went on a chasing scene wih Wolverine, and I made myself invisible and phase through the trees. The third one was.. sexual

i need to find a way to remember my goals, I've been having trouble remembering them lately despie my mantras which have worked so well in the past. Any advice?

Spoiler for November Lucid Goals:

•Morph into an animal
•Fly with angel wings (already done this but I wanna do it again)
•Complete any of the TOTM
•Make something grow (and watch it doing so)
•Turn the dream into cartoon-mode
•Summon myself
•Have 10 lucids

Lucid count so far: 15

Holy crap that's awesome! But our resident Dream Yogini is asking for advice? Wuuuuut? LOL I'm kidding. You just seems to have sooooo many LDs. Anyway, I have been having a hard time remembering things myself. But here's a thought, maybe you shouldn't always be concerned with goals. Maybe sometimes it is better to find out what the dream wants to tell you. Maybe I'm full of shit as well. Just a thought.

LOOOOL the last two sentences.

But you know what, that might be a really great idea! I shall not think of goals for the next few days and just go with the dream. I'll see how it goes. Thanks Xanous! And hahaha Dream Yogini WUUUUT

Wow! Congratulations on taking down four LDs in one morning. I don't know what kind of roll you've gotten on here. Whatever it is, I hope it's contagious!

Please take this! You've earned it:

What generally works for me with goals is spending some time during the day and particularly before bed visualizing the approach I expect to take with the task. When you play it out in daydream / dream incubation, I've found that it's a lot more likely to stick in your head and reoccur to you once you reach lucidity. In addition, when I'm daydreaming the scene, I include the (silent) mantra "I'm dreaming". This seems to tie everything together pretty well and I usually remember what I'm supposed to be doing.

Of course, this means picking just one main goal to pursue and perhaps a backup goal that you just sort of keep in mind without incubating / daydreaming.

Even if there weren't a task of the month, I always like to keep a goal of some sort in mind. I can sometimes run into issues where I lose focus or get obsessed with nonsense in an LD. Having a definite goal helps light a fire under my ass and make me do something. Otherwise I end up yammering endlessly to some DC until the dream ends.

And now I have a simple question for you. How do I have four freakin lucid dreams in one morning??

It's quite simple. Just choose your favorite family member, then sacrifice them to the sun god Ra. That pretty much did it for me. My mom will be sorely missed.


Jk x) I have no idea, just dedication and awareness I guess! And of course advice from the best people in the world — you guys! <3

OMG that was the best answer ever!!!!

So does this need to be done during a WBTB? How much galantamine and apple juice am I supposed to chug before performing this dark ritual?

Please answer ASAP. I think that Aunt Mildred is becoming suspicious!

Aww... I don't know where I'd be without the help of the DVA staff (and you, paigeyemps, are DVA staff 4 life.)

"Awareness" really is the answer to just about everything related to LD's, isn't it? Well, your hard work is yielding amazing results. It's great to watch.

Anyhow, I'd "Like" your post but this entire feature (along with the dream journals) has apparently been trashed. I've tried to tell you, Paige -- blood-pacts with Egyptian deities have consequences!

LOL Canis! **Like** awww thank you


Oop, I had a lucid today. I think it was due to the miniWBTB I did at dawn when I got up to charge my ipad.

The lucid was quite stable. I had a false awakening where I woke up and realized the girl on the shampoo bottle was talking to me. I got lucid, phased through the walls and flew up with angel-type wings. I also got to suspend the rain, sort of. It was raining and I waterbent it so the raindrops were suspended in mid-air. I've been wanting to do that for a while, somewhere in the back of my mind. :
