Well, I'm really getting into a groove now. Fourth lucid fourth morning in a row. Again technique was woke up did SSILD and then once in dream DILD. The dream I had was really odd though it was more like multiple dreams in one. Also, my recall is back to normal around 3-4 dreams remembered per morning. So yea I'll get to posting my latest dream in my DJ.
Awwww mannnn gimme some of that lucidity powah! :P
Haha would if I could. :PQuote:

That's really cool that your most recent dream was Inception-inspired. =p A little confusing, but interesting!
Yea, I didn't even know what was going haha.. hence the dream journal entry title.Quote:

My, streak has ended! Well sort of I guess. I did my normal routine woke up naturally like 4:42 AM SSILD go back to sleep, but then I woke up again and this time it was hard for me to fall back asleep. So eventually I did end up falling asleep again. But now like every ten minutes I would wake up. So I kept waking up and going back to sleep. I was still having dreams in these short periods and realized I was dreaming twice but it was too short and I just woke up every time.
Congrats on the lucids, Kraom! Shame that you didn't seem to sleep well last night, but at least there was a perk that came with waking up a lot. Waking up regularly probably helped to make you more aware while you were dreaming.
Your findings have inspired me to take up SSILD again. Good job and great lucids.
Alright, so this morning when I normally have my lucid dreams I woke up and messed up my SSILD I fell back asleep because I was worrying to much about trying to stay tired. So as a result no lucids today :(. Dream recall was meh bits and pieces of a few dreams and one really really long dream.
So, this morning I had another one of those morning where I kept waking up again very frequently. It's beneficial for recall and realizing I'm dreaming but I can't really have an actually lucid because the dream ends essentially right after I realize I'm dreaming. Also I messed up my SSILD again I keep falling asleep when I wake up, I guess I have to wake myself up just a little bit more before doing it.
Not much to say about this morning, I woke up around 4:52 feeling rather awake so I did my SSILD and then went back to sleep. And I did have another waking up a lot fit this morning but not every five minutes maybe about everyone twenty. Yep, after that all I know is that Hulk Hogan thinks I'm a bitch for not eating special K cereal, yea met him in soak city in a dream..
I'm glad you were sleeping a little more easily last night. Did you become lucid again in any of your dreams?
Hulk Hogan scolded you for not eating Special K? Good god. Have we arrived at the age where businesses insert commercials/product placement in dreams? :O
Yea in the time where I was waking up a lot I realized I was dreaming but you know I just woke up..Quote:

Hm. Have you considered trying DEILD? Might be worth a try, if you keep waking up.
Yep, I was thinking about starting to try DEILDs.Quote:

I thought about trying a DEILD when I naturally woke up because I woke from a dream, kinda a nightmare of sorts, and still had my eyes closed hadn't moved, but seeing as I've never tried I thought I'd just do SSILD. And I'm glad I did. Oh, also I need to stop being lazy and write more in my dream journal.
Congrats on the LD! So glad to see SSILD working so well for you.
Well, this morning I woke up in a dream. And once in the dream I became lucid. Alright so now I did RCs even though I never ever do them. And they just proved to me why I don't do them. Two Rcs failed. So then I was like uhh okay maybe this isn't a dream, because I did wake up in a classroom maybe I was sleeping in class. So then I lost my lucidity because I now had convinced myself that it was real. So yea won't be using those RCs anymore.. >:C
Aw darn, that's a pain. One of the other students (I think it was Xanous?) stopped using RCs because he had the same trouble. If you become lucid and are aware enough to not need to RC, then yeah, don't bother. Perhaps just move on to stabilization.
I've not had a RC fail me, but I use the nose plug. I usually RC twice, because it's difficult to tell what the result of the test was the first time. But I usually either RC out of habit, or out of suspicion. It's uncommon for me to know that I'm definitely dreaming. Just do what works for you, kraom!
Alright so this morning no lucid but I didn't do any SSILD so maybe that's why. I was going to attempt a DEILD but when I awoke at my normal natural wake up time I kind of jolted awake. And I was tired so I just went back to sleep. Also I was at my dad's house and I seem to LD more frequently at my mom's.
Alright so I had a lucid this morning. Woke up around 4:43 AM checked my phones time and then did SSILD went back to sleep and had a lucid dream.And I finally full on flew this morning woo. Also, my stabilization is pretty good now I don't have to use any techniques like spinning or looking at my hands anymore as long as I'm focusing in the dream it's stable. Although this morning was weird because I had three FAs.. And some dreams within dreams. It was a little hectic. Anyways I'm going to get to posting in my dream journal.
:D That's great Kraom, good job! How long did your flying lucid last? It's a shame you didn't get to talk to that DC, I guess your dream wanted you to do something action-packed.
I'm impressed that SSILD is working so well for you. You've had a ton of LDs in such a short time! What do you think you'll do in your next LD? Talk to a DC without it disappearing?
Yea I'm hoping to have a conversation with a DC. I'm also going to start experimenting with time dilation. Anyways we'll see how it goes. Also the flying didn't last that long, but It's alright it was still enjoyable.
I just read your DJ, it sounded great. My first (only so far) flying experience I didn't feel much physically. It was a bit frustrating, so I think it's really cool that you felt the wind while flying.
Time dilation, or making your LDs last longer? Either way, exciting! Best of luck to you man, I hope you succeed. Tell us all about it if you do! I'll want to learn your methods.
So nothing really to report this morning. Other than I think I tend to lucid dream more at my mom's house.
