my workbook
For the past couple of days, I have been doing the reality checks where you try and breathe while holding your nose and pushing your finger through your palm.
Hey Kingpin, glad you started up a workbook! What's your dream recall like currently? How long have you kept a dream journal, or have you just started keeping one? What are your goals for LDing? If you have any questions, feel free to ask right here in your workbook. I look forward to reading more from you!
That's great. What have you been doing to accompany the reality checks? Reality checks alone, from my experience, don't do much in the way of getting you lucid. Awareness is key, so each time you do a reality check make sure you're truly aware of your surroundings and really ask yourself, "Am I dreaming?" and come up with solid reasons why you aren't. I find it also helps to recall what I was doing 5 minutes ago, as in dreams, it's often not possible to recall what you previously did, or you'll recall that you went to sleep.Quote:

For a few days last week I remembered almost everything about some of my dreams, though. I started my dream journal back i may, but gave up on it after like 15 entries. I restarted it last week. In my lucid dreams, I want to be able to practice sports or other things that I can get better at.
Thanks for the adviceQuote:

Well done! Keep up the good work, let's hope your next one isn't too far away!Quote:

Did you use any methods or anything? Or do anything before taking a nap? :D
Btw, August is coming up! Have any monthly goals? Setting monthly goals can be pretty helpful to motivate you even more. Good luck.
I don't think I did anything special before the nap. For August I want to try and get at least 5 lucid dreams that are clear and last a while
Last night I had at least three dreams but i can only remember 1 fully and a fragment of the other.
I also think I figured out some of my dream signs: Cruise ships, Muay thai, and RP. (RP is a person but I'm not great friends with them so I'm not writing their name on here.)
Remembering 1 full dream alone can be a struggle, let alone with another fragment of a different dream!
Well done on working out your dream signs, you can put them to more use by using paigeyemps idea of Dream Sign Incubation right here: http://www.dreamviews.com/f12/incuba...-signs-134585/
I had the most amazing dream last night with 2 other fragments. Just thinking about it makes me want to cry. I wish my dad didn't have to wake me up for football
I read your DJ from the other night, congratulations not only on the lucid dream (really your first ever?), but also on using the spinning technique to delay waking up. That's the second person today actually that I read about having success with spinning.
What was the amazing dream, the lifeguard one? Just curious, you don't have to dictate it here. I was just wondering because I was trying to keep up with your journal entries.Quote:

Ah ok, makes sense. It didn't look like a crying dream to me haha :P
I don't think I'm going to post my amazing dream on here because it is a little personal.
I also decided I'm going to use the DILD method because I have to start waking up early for school and football
My dreams keep getting weirder and weirder as I remember more of them.
That's okay! You can use that to your advantage. Weirder dreams can allow you to better notice them, I'd say keep working on awareness and reality checks :)
See ya around!
I haven't been able to update this in a while because of football and work, but I had to take the time out of my day for this today, because last night I had three lucid dreams. it was crazy.
Oooohhh that's great!!! Congrats! :party:
What happened?
4 lucids in 3 nights? I'm on a roll
I got my goal of 5 lucids for august, now I just have to work on being able to control them. If anybody reads my dream journal, i'm sorry i haven't updated it in a while. I'll get to it eventually
Yes please! I want to hear about these 4 lucids in 3 nights. That's quite a strike, Kingpin :PQuote:
