April went pretty well. I'm still holding about 20 LD/month. I'd love to have a lucid every night but I'm pretty happy holding it right here. |

Awesome job in April, man. Twenty LDs! Seriously, that is amazing. Gives me a great target to shoot for. It really does seem like holding it there is right for you, given that you've got a family and full-time job, and most importantly that you're having fun at this current quantity. |
|
Well I felt like I had slowed way down on my LD's this month but I got a total of 17. There have been longer periods in-between LDs but I made up for it a few times by hitting 2, 3, or even 4 in one night. I'm pretty OK with that. |

17, that's a fine score! I'll be watching to see what you come up with to remedy the darkness, as I tend to have the same problem. Right now it's not really an issue, but it wouldn't hurt to be prepared for winter. |
|
Some excellent stuff Xanous! Talk about some motivating experiences, nice! |
|
Awesome month, Xanous! I'm excited to see where your explorations take you in June. Just please don't OBE in on me when I'm on the can or whatever. |
|
Just a quick thought... |

Thanks, lots of good thoughts there on Monroe! His material still sounds really interesting, even if it might challenge my preferred (dream)world-view. So is his technique all about waiting for the experience of vibrations? I wonder why an experience like this lends itself to OBEs whereas the more traditional WILD causes the formulation of a new dream scene. |
|
Yes, It seems so. I don't know if he changes his ideas in his other book but it seems like it's all about inducing the vibrations first. He has a lot of good ideas but that part really throws me off. Lately, I've just been finding myself thrown straight into the dream vibrations or not. I think it's ideas like Monroe's that caused Sageous to really emphasizes the noise being unimportant. It's very misleading but all this was very new to the western world back then. |

Thanks. Yeah, I'd love to have the experience. At the same time, not having vibrations proved to me beyond any doubt that they simply aren't necessary for a WILD. Some people tend to have them, others don't, and there's just a lot of variety between dreamers. |

Great update, Xanous! I think you are heading in exactly the right direction. MILD is such a foundational technique that you really can't go wrong maximizing and honing what you can get out of it. |

I guess it's ok to go ahead and resurrect this old workbook of mine. Though I've been a DV member for so long, I seem to cycle in and out of focusing on lucid dreaming. I suppose this is normal and OK, but I'm really wanting to get my motivation and inspiration back up. I guess at my age it becomes more difficult to cultivate such a hobby and most don't seem to understand the importance of dreamwork. I consider myself to be a psychonaught and lean towards Buddhist influence in my spirituality (thought I am lacking in this area as well) and I think knowing yourself and cultivation the amount of awareness it takes to become "woke" in the dream state is one of the building blocks to living life to it's fullest potential. It seems I've let a number of distractions lull me away from things that are important and it's time to step back and take a look at it. I'm really not sure where I am going with this workbook or how much I'll post here, Perhaps it's just a reason to log into DV and interact will all of you wonderful lucid dreamers again. Anyway, It's back to the basics for me! |

Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is.
Yay NyxCC! Missed talking to you. Yes. I need that support group. It makes all the difference in the world. |

So this week I'm reminded of how proper sleep patterns are really a foundation to dream work. I realized that I really need to focus on getting enough sleep during the week and not just try to catch up on the weekend. My recall has been good but not great. I think I can improve there. The good news is that this morning I slept really late and was able to have a mid level LD! |

Man... I guess I really dropped the ball here. I haven't given up on my practices. I still strive for them. It's just there are so many life distractions right now. The good news is that I was blessed with a nice LD this morning, so perhaps I'm doing something right. This should fuel my motivation for the coming week. |
