Thread: Caenis' Workbook

I had another dream and a few fragments last night, nothing too notable. I'm trying to RC whenever someone mentions dreaming. I never realized how frequently it's mentioned by others or in movies/shows. I spent five hours playing a video game today, so I probably didn't RC or use as much awareness as usual. I find it enormously difficult to not become completely absorbed in the game. As I tell more of my friends that I'm trying to LD, we talk about it more, which reminds me to RC and be aware, so that's handy.

I did a short WBTB yesterday, but decided to not DEILD, I've read that DEILDing every night can be counterproductive. I'm tempted to DEILD tonight, but I'll save it for the weekend.

As always, this would depend on the person. Seems like reasonable advice to me though.

I was with my family for most of the day, so I almost completely forgot about awareness and RCing while with them. I only remembered one dream from last night, and it was pretty fuzzy by the time I was able to write it down. I nuzzled a woman's bosom in the dream. It was very cozy.

I'll be using DEILD tonight. Hopefully that'll give me results, I'm itching to have another LD. I'm wondering if this workbook activity before bed was a good idea. I'm so tired when I type these things, maybe I should just read before bed instead. Or maybe I should do this earlier in the night. ...Could be good if I went to bed at a set hour too.
