Thanks for asking bro Im going to add another lucid for the DJ also have a good mornin! If ur eastern time lol

That's fine, we all have off days! Have you ever tried doing a WBTB without an alarm? Once you've recorded dreams for a while you should know your "prime time" for dream recall and lucidity, for my WBTB now I just let myself naturally wake up (with thanks to mantras and just general practice) and WBTB closest as I can to that "prime time". I definitely found it helped with my recall because you don't have that alarm shocking you awake and making you move, quite often instantly erasing all memory of your dreams.

That's exactly what it is to it shocks me awake and I forget I always say to myself I know I just lost my dream and mostly when I do remember its from waking on my own ill try no alarm tonight and see what type of progress I can make no work tomarrow so hopefully I can get 3 or 4 dreams recorded! Thanks for the tip jason you've takin a lot of ur time out of the day to help me I'm great full for that!

Well this workbook the past few post r like confessionals lol I'm going to blame my g/f for the sake of saying I'm to embarrasst to take all the blame but I dibble dabbled into the beer last night "sad face" but I still recorded one dream "Smily face". This dream brought up a few questions I hope to get answered. The dream went something like this, I'll save details for dream journal. I was running from the cops because I shot a man. Well I was being chased I went everywhere to fInd a good spot to hide but I kept getting found finally I made it under a dock with wood surrounding me and though " well I just need to not think I will get thought because in a dream it's based on ur will" then this girl came out and we smiled at each other I started to wake up. ---question--- this is a noob question lol but I don't think I've felt sleep pralisis before I I'm almost sure my arm was asleep and I though to myself damn I have to move my arm this can't b good For it so I tossed around a bit and a few min later it felt all tingly again so I moved again. ??did I mistaken sp for my arm(s) being asleep? I do know one thing though I found my happy place it was so beautiful in the water in a inclosed barge with the water up to my waist and the boats rocking up and down ugh so peacefull! So any thoughts guys?

Yea, I think your arm was just asleep It seems a lot of people make the same mistake.

Mabey that's why I woke up?

Yeah I definitely wake up whenever my arm or leg falls asleep. So annoying.

Can't say it ever worked its way into a dream before.

Time 4 a lucid ill have a great storie for the dream journal tomarrow. 6 miles on the bike 2 running and about 1 reality check every 15 min. It's time to end this dry spell. My DR. call me a dream desipal today because I talk to everyone about I kinda like that title. Some people get so weirded out by it though I guess it's natural to b afraid of the unknown. Sweet dreams friends

. I pulled a noob mistake I forgot a dream because I said I would remember it instead of recording it then and there!!! Ugh lol. Quick question can I move on to lesson three? Im still having trouble recording 3 a night or should I wait to advance either way for me I'll will keep up on my workbook and dj.

That's up to you, Wurlman. If you feel you're ready for Lesson 3, then go for it! The 3 dreams a night thing is only if you want the community hall points. If you're satisfied with the amount of dreams you're having, then there's no need to recall three dreams each night.

I think most of us make that mistake every once in a while. The dream is so vivid, so memorable, and we're so tired. Once we fall asleep, whoops, the dream is gone. No worries man, just don't make a habit of it!

Good call like I told blue ill try again this week I want them hall points not sure what there for but I wannem lol better luck on Monday but tonight it's time to kick that dry spell sweet dreams!

It's been a looooong time since I resolved a fight and a dream with calm words normally it turns into a sick and twisted cut sean of me either whooping some arse or killing the individual. I was very happy with my nl dream this morning. There was a crowd and dude made it clear he wanted to fight. I wait for just a moment and went almost at a fast pase in the crowd broke and I knew my facial expression was set to kill mode but when I seen him I put my hand just high enough up to we're he could see it and said were cool relax I don't like this one bit it makes my heart race and then explained why he had no reason to b angry. Then some other kid wrapped his hands around his friends throat and I gently touched his hand and said hey there is no need for this. I'm so happy I dident just murder everyone this is a great accomplishment for me. I'm so happy and it was one of the longest dreams I ever recorded lots of nakedness to lol

Haha, grats! Murderous rampages are quite disturbing. Now aim to record even more dreams that are longer than that one!

Personally I prefer to have a nice journal to write my dreams in detail. I always find that when writing my dreams I can just let my subconscious take over and I remember more and more of the dream as I record. Quite often that I'm recording and fragments of other dreams come back too, sometimes building up into another full dream remembered.

It all depends what you're comfortable with and have time for though, you need to find what suits you. If you like voice recording, stick with that! It's a perfectly valid method. I would suggest to go through and write your dreams out on the computer or paper afterwards though, because it's much harder to go through listening to recordings to find your dream signs and such.

I think the confidence makes a difference, you're right. So, it makes a difference to say, "I will have a lucid dream tonight..." as opposed to "I hope I'll have a lucid dream tonight..." But I wouldn't go so far as to get so worked up about it that you're frustrated if you don't succeed. You will dream, that's a given, it's whether you are aware of it or not that's the factor.

Yup getting worked up only makes it harder! I'm going to have a lucid tonight though lol!

Well my goal for tomarrow is 15 in depth rc's and a lucid dream tonight. New list of dream signs 1. Water big body's of water generally 2. Luna pier were I grew up 3. Any type of physical or mental stress due to violence or threatsSweet dreams ya'll!

I could sleep for a whole day I'm so tierd going to take a nap when I get home for sure nothing to record frOm last night. I think I'm going to have to start setting my wbtb alarms my internal clock just is not what it should b.

• Do you find the water scenes to be peaceful or is the water raging, like in a storm, a tsunami, or a whirlpool?
• If the water is peaceful, then it seems like a stark contrast to your stressful/fight/violence dreams.
• Do the water scenes occur before or after your violence scenes? Is this on a regular basis?
• Why (or why not) would water be a peaceful thing in your dreams?

I like the thought process u brought to this because I never though of it but it's always peacefull and yes it does seem like its the light from the darK dreams i have. great observation! I never though of that before! It seems that the water is always peacefull because 8 years of my growing up was on lake erie.

I think we often look back to our childhood with a sense of nostalgia. Sure, we only remember the good, innocent times of childhood, but we don't remember the struggling of not having any freedoms, not being able to spend any of our own income, the conflicts with Mom and Dad?

I'm guilty of the same thing. I look back to childhood as some sort of "crystal palace on the mountain" and I know my adult life can never achieve it. Partly because I'm aware that we as adults are evil people.

Yes as a child there is a lot of innocence that has a great potential to b lost as we get older!! I was just talking to my girlfriend about that yesterday. I loved living with my grandparents in Luna pier though only good came from that. After that though I learned how to hate lol and now I'm in evil adult like u said lol it happens though!!

Of course, your grandparents were completely perfect humans that made the best chocolate cake during the family reunion, and they always took your side, right?

Lol more like cheese ball but yes grandma always had my back! So we're having a lucid tonight bud so we can share tomarrow!!! Sound good??
