But now that schools out I can focus in on my lucid dreaming. Anyways I'll be starting my workbook and dream journal soon.

Love your avatar very intense and dreamy

The sleep paralysis stage is scary. I do it by accident all the time since I was 15though I didn't know what it was. It began as a reaccuring night mare where I was paralyzed and could only hear my heartbeat. I learnt to relax and sink through my bed to the void where I would fall faster and faster into a Lucid dream. It soon became enjoyable but still a little scary.

Have been dreaming (and occasionally lucid dreaming) for decades, but for the most part it has been a matter of just enjoying whatever comes my way, and having quite good dream recall much of the time. Though I have also kept dream journals for decades because I often find my dreams interesting, I've never really gotten all that serious about trying to control, program, or otherwise increase the benefits of my dreams. But now that I have this very involved community to work with and bounce off of, going to try and become part of the academy, and see if I can increase my lucid dreaming from an average of once every couple of months to much more frequently.

So here's my 'post a message to apply,' and next I'll go see what I need to do to start my workbook. Already started my dream journal here, and will continue to read, and find out what's next.

Welcome to DVA Batch

And 11 journal entries so far, wow! I'll have to catch up on them tomorrow, can't wait.

**Batch** · 08-13-2012 02:58 AM

Slightly more than half of them are older dreams, I think only 5 of them were dreamed since I joined here ... had a couple of really good nights, and for about the last three nights, nothing ... but I have been really stressed, so that may be impeding me. Trying to get more sleep tonight, and hopefully will be remembering dreams again!

Hi, I'm completely new to lucid dreaming but i'm excited to get in to it. I've read the intro thread and chatted to some people on the chat room who recommended I do this intro class. So yeah, i'm keen to get involved

**MoonWolfe** · 08-14-2012 12:08 AM

I would love to sign up for Lucid Dreams as I am very interested in the basics and would love to learn more & is 100% willing to learn as much as possible.

Hi,

Off and on over a number of years I have had an interest in dreaming, and becoming lucid in my dreams, exploring, etc. I have a small library of books, a folder on the computer, and put together my own ms access db of dreams. I have a little over 300 dreams in that journal, and a bunch of word documents of dreams from years ago. Yet, I have not experienced a true, 'hey, I am dreaming' moment. Because of a number of constraints, I enter my dreams in the morning or later in the day, and seek to 'remember' my dreams without physically writing them out, before typing them into my dream db. It works to some degree. So, I am in quest of the 'catalyst' that will get me to the LD stage and on to exploring.

Thanks for any input, and I appreciate what the course leader and apprentices are doing.

Cheers,

Welcome LucidLex, MoonWolfe, and FlyingRocks!

Great to have some more new students

I see 2 of you have started a workbook already. Here's Lesson I just in case it was missed.

thanks paige

Forumer "areyoume" recommended checking out the Dream Academy in my "introduction" thread. I love the concept and I'm very excited to meet everyone and try it out. Just think -- after all these years, I finally have professors that won't be upset that I've fallen asleep in class!

I've been on a good lucid dreaming roll recently (8 in the last 6 weeks or so) but I'm still a neophyte with tons to learn. Discovering the art of lucid dreaming has been a profound experience for me and I'm very excited to learn more.

Many thanks to the Professors for taking the time to share their knowledge. Now... off to do my homework!

Edit: I somehow forgot to mention above -- this is me signing up.

**OpheliaBlue** · 08-16-2012 04:27 AM

Nice to meet you CanisLucidus (lucid wolf?

)

Anyway, 8 LDs in 6 weeks is awesome, for a neophyte or otherwise. So congrats on that already! I look forward to reading your workbook, journal, and all that jazz.

Hey, you're good! Didn't think I'd have my handle decoded so quickly.

Apparently "LucidWolf" was taken and/or otherwise frowned upon by the forum software. Fortunately, "CanisLucidus" has grown on me in the last, what, twelve hours?

Thank you kindly for the gracious welcome. And is that an honest to goodness lucid dreaming podcast I see in your sig? Onto my iPod it goes! I'm psyched to find that such a thing exists.

It was an educated guess

You are so incredibly welcome! And yes, it's an honest to goodness podcast (I literally updated the episodes in my sig minutes ago.). We (RareCola and I.. it's his baby) hope you like it, and welcome again to the Intro Class!

**MoonWolfe** · 08-17-2012 11:35 AM

thanks for the welcome

**covlad96** · 08-17-2012 06:39 PM

Hi, I've listened to the first two podcasts (which are really good) and decided I would like to sign up.

I started last summer and started to have a few lucid dreams. I then stopped for about 6 months, tried hard again then stopped after I got one lucid dream. So I'm starting again serious NOW. This class seems perfect for keeping motivation up and progessing

Glad you like the podcast, and welcome the class!

This class should definitely help with your motivation. Make sure you keep us up-to-date and we'll do our best to provide help where we can

**Chimpertainment** · 08-19-2012 09:57 PM

Would it be possible to sign up for 2 classes at once? Im already in the general lucid dreaming course but I think I may have bitten off more than I can chew. Getting back into dreaming has really given my arrogance a run for its money, lol.

I have a lot of lucid and dreaming knowledge. However, I am at about 1 lucid every 2 weeks and basic recall. My last lucid was almost a fully conscious experience, and by that I mean for every successive lucid, it becomes more clear/stable.

Recapping all the basic dream practices would be a big help for me, and maintaining my motivation is a huge thing as well.

you guys think this would be good?

**OpheliaBlue** · 08-20-2012 02:33 AM

Hi Chimpertainment, we'd love to have you join the intro class. As I've said many times before, this class is also good for lucid dreamers who want to brush up on their skills. Plus it would be nice to have another student who has had lucid dreams, because it helps the less experienced students (especially in the #DVA chat!).

So, welcome! And please let me or one of the apprentices know if you need any help
