Ok I'm back on the boat again "Smily face" lol do I remembered to dream last night an I also remember reviewing them three times before I fell asleep. I had every intention of recording them to Lol I well I have a great feeling about becoming lucid this week. I started nights so that helps a lot with being able to not have any interruptions well asleep. Hope everyone I doing well tty soon guys!
Welcome back Wurlman! :D
Best of luck to you as always :happyme:
Well last night I heard the "noise" again. I caint seem to get passed it this time when I felt the sp a loud high pitched screech came into my right ear it freeked me out and I thought to myself that I wanted to move but the sp will prevent me but shortly after the noise stopped and I must have dozed off. No dreams to recored so I took a nap and had a crazy dream found a cool pistol and was awoken by my girl in mid car crash lol. How do I stay calm during this "noise" it's so scary some times??
Hmm When I find myself hearing those auditory hallucinations, I try to morph them into something more pleasant, so I don't panic. Usually I hear loud scratching or banging noises, so I try to imagine changing them into marching band sounds, and for some reason, they turn into it. :)
I feel ya bro. Don't know if this is helpful or not: (just the first dream)Quote:

Thanks u two very helpfully indeed! I'm reading robert waggnors book it's is the best book I've read so far on lucid dreaming I highly recommend it!
I think you will eventually get used to it. After a while it will not seem like such a big deal. Or maybe that's just me.Quote:

RC and rrc everyday only a total of 12 dreams this month recorded and about 30 fragments lol <-- a bit over exaggerating but GREAT NEWS 3 of the 12 dreams have been lucid each one a bit longer than the next! Also I have been reading the book my girl got me every night. This book is the best on lucids ever! It has a lot of very interesting ideas and beliefs on lucids. Thanks for reading! INTENT EXPECTATION and WILL. TTY soon guys!
70hrs? That's gross.
Well I'm glad you are still making progress. I thought you had given up. I'm glad you didn't even with all that working!
Sorry to hear about the long hours but hey, great job with the lucids! I guess that in spite of the long working hours you've still been able to get pretty good sleep to get these good results...?
I keep hearing good things about the Waggoner book. Do you think it was this book in particular that got you lucid more frequently? Or is it down to other changes that you have made? Either way, congratulations!
I will never give up!! Lol anyways yes the long hours do suck but I try to stay focused. The Waggoner book I have to dedicate one of the three lucids. Chapter 10 I believe it was really influenced me and I though about it well I was dreaming. And yes I make sure I get at least 8 hours every night! Once I'm off this shutdown I'll be back on 40hrs. And hopefully back up to 60 a month!
Awww way to go Wurlman! Kick those 70 hours' ass! :D
Heads up: It's almost October! I suggest making a new list of monthly goals you want to achieve, as well as reevaluate your DJ for possible new dream signs or any realizations :D
Well I had another lucid this time I finally stayed calm and I had a false awakening realized then flash to another dream and lost it. Progress still. And yesterday I recorded more dreams then I ever have. I'm starting to be able to remember dream transitions from one to the other it's funny how u will b in a living room look at what's on t.v. Then suddenly zoom into the tv and carry out that as a whe new dream scape "might b a good way when lucid to teleport eh?" back to work lol tty guys soon
Hey, long time no see! Very good progress Wurlman. Yes its good that you are noticing the dream transitions. And yes that is a really good way to teleport. Its great you are beginning to pick up on stuff like that. And the recall improvement.... sweet! You have come a long way and it's really awesome!Quote:

Congrats on the lucids, keep em coming!
Thanks PAIGEY! I caint Wait intell I'm off nights and back to a routine scedual I hope then my recall improves that much more.
A few more lucids sence last post. 1 more week on nights! Then back to a routin scedual I'm excited my recall should skyrocket. I found some of the best guided relaxation sound tracks on utube check out Jody whiteley she is amazing!
Congratulations on the lucids! So how do you fit the relaxation tracks into your nighttime routine? Do you just fall asleep listening to them at night or during a WBTB?
1st day without weed 3 fragments 2end and 3erd night nothing to recored. It's horrible to see just a few post how far I came but gave it all up a second time for pot. Tonight will b tough 12 hours at work today so getting to bed on time will b unfortunate. My wbtb start tonight I'm also going to give myself a caffeine boost and some melatonin. It's not that I actually believe that it works but I try to buy into it for at least a placebo to help. My mane focus is recall only lucids r not in option now because I want all my focus into recall if it happens then more power to me. Glad to b back "don't judge me monkeys" love Wurlman
4 night 1 fragment and it had to b about work lmao small progress I do remember the last time I quit smoking it was 3 weeks into it I had a lucid a night for 3 nights. Something to look forward to
The caffeine helps make you more aware. It's still up to you to be lucid. I think for me it just serves as a boost when I already have the fundamentals in place. If I slip on my basic practices, I fail reguardless of any aid. Just a thought. :cheeky:
Glad to see you are back in the game. I really missed seeing you on here, man! You will be lucid in no time. It's like riding a bike.
5th and 6ths night same results not a thing to record. Tough but I'm in it to win it
A tip regarding weed usage...I smoke daily, and i recall more dreams than most. The reasoning being that I WBTB every night. Ive found that as long as I WBTB, all my dream stuff will be normal. That being said, not smoking does up awareness simply because being high is so relaxing. If you can practice ADA while high, that will also help dream recall/lucidity...
I don't smoke but I love this reply. In regards to lucid dreaming I never take anything I am told as gospel but more as a suggestion. Everyone is different.Quote:

It's great to have you back, Wurlman! I know how it is with small children, full-time job, etc. It really can be tough. But all you can do is, as you say, find a happy medium that lets you fit everything in without putting too much pressure on yourself.Quote:

I've noticed from the time I listened to the q&a podcast that rather than doing RC I check constantly for anything in my world that might b odd or different then when I finally find anything that is odd I do in RC and imagin what I might do if I was dreaming and lucid :-). Doing this method made my awareness increase dramatically! I check about every 20min. Thx again for ur help canis!
That's great, man, it sounds like you're doing it exactly right! You are cultivating that habit of critically questioning your environment and taking nothing for granted.Quote:

Thanks for the reminder! I want to have an LD-full weekend, so I'll be trying to do practices like this rest of the day too. :goodjob2:
Hey Wulrman so glad to hear from you again!
I'm happy to be back it was a long break but I won't do that again though I hate starting over lol. But latly things r getting better with lucidity good with dream recall and great with finding whats odd in my world to do RC's :-)Quote:

:banana: Huge success last night!!!
I had 4 back 2 back WILDS it went like this.
WBTB at 245am stayed up for 10min. drank a cup of cold coffie then I layed there forever and just like all the other night I would get the "swallows" and the vibs would disappear. I read alot about ignoring it and just focused on "Jeff's" wild Tec. I read earlyer that day on his free fall how he lets his mind wonder and just sits back and watches his thoughts I did just that! Finally becoming uncofertable I rolled over onto my right side then I beautiful sceanery of high snow and pine trees my dog "oden" was getting pretty for from me exploring I was lucid and decided wistle with my fingers it was the loudest wistle I have ever done and the scean started to fade but my wistle carried on echoing as I faded in the darkness apon waking up I decided to relax and start another WILD as I watched my mind wonder again I found myself yet again lucid :-) i was walking into a gas station I walked up to the clerk and realized my shirt wasent on I felt like white trash and was afraid of being judged. When I looked back towards the clerk and he was gone i started fading to black again but I could still feel the floor beneath my feet and I could hear the door jingle as it opened i felt/heard two people walk in behind me feeling valnerable from the dark void I amagined myself as a cardboard cut out in a waving position so as they passed me they wouldent notice me lmao :-)...... I faded out of that dream and awoke in my bed. AGAIN I attempted another WILD this time it started out NL "WARNING A BIT SEXUAL BUT IT IS MY WORKBOOK SO HEAR IT GOES"...... I was working in a Walmart type store sitting at a desk in the middle of a isle way I had in understanding that there is a tube you can hook up this odd looking tube thats under the desk to ur penis and get a blow job from a worker girl in a different room i faded to black. It's hard to explain what happen next but basically I had a FA I was in my bed masterbating super fast I almost ejaculated when I kinda moaned out loud at this point I realized I was dreaming again and the sound from my moan echoed louder and louder also the darkness was replaced by in ever growing light. I stoped masterbating after realizing I was dreaming. I faded to black but this time instead of waking up I layed there in the void i felt the bed under me and questioned myself if I was still in a dream state. After a bit of time I decided to try and float up as I Tryed my body sort of slid slowly off the bed again I questioned if I was really falling off the bed but said no ur still LUCID AND DREAMING so I stayed relaxed and thought about the TOTM I told myself I need to hug somone and punch hittler in the face ..... As I was still what felt like half off my bed I also though about xanous a fellow LD"er" and how he felt somthing squishy that help pull him out of the void I felt nothing though. Just after that I could see just down the hall were my girlfriend was sitting up on the bed I said "babe I'm stuck in the void" and she replyed "try not smoking pot" I woke up after that......
WURLMAN!!!! THAT'S GREAT :party:
A huuuge congratulations! Just a tiny tiny detail I should say is that the part with the FA is not a WILD since in a WILD, you must've have a non-lucid moment between waking up and being lucid. The FA was the nonlucid bit, though you did get lucid shortly after. The other ones are still WILDs though, and no matter how you call em, they're lucids so that's all that counts! Great job at keeping calm too, and lol at the ending x) seems like you're one of those people who are prone to getting into the void. You could use that to your advantage, perhaps use it to teleport to a new dream scene. I'm very happy for you!
Holy smokes dude! I'm so happy for you. That dream cracks me up too. I'm glad I'm not the only to dream crazy Sexual situations.
Please check out my caffeine thread when you get a chance. I'll be adding a questionaire soon so keep that in mind
:bowdown: CAFFEINE!
Ahhh yes PAIGEY good eye on that one :-) I'm so happy right now I really think I found the best way for me to do it :-) basically when ur ready to give up roll over on my side and let the lucids begin :-) THANK YOU FOR ALL UR SUPPORT!!!!!Quote:

I was going to point you to the caffeine thread but Xanous beat me to it. :) So I'll just add -- keep up the great work!
I was hoping to get a reply from u :-) thanks for the incouragement! I've been on a lucid high all day! I caint wait for tonight. One day I will be in the big leagues with the rest of my buddy's on dream views :-)Quote:
