Hello everyone.

I've enlisted in this class in order to regain my lucid abilities and advance them further than I've ever been able to before. I've been Lucid dreaming on and off for years, and took particular interest in the subject about 7 years ago. I began studying lucid dream books and keeping a dream journal, but after a while I lost my focus and the will to pursue it any further.

Recently my desire to explore the Dreamscape has come back with a vengeance. I began reading material on dreaming and focusing my intent once more. I was doing great, having two or more LD per week and remembering a whole lot more. Then it stopped once I started trying to WILD. I haven't had a LD since. I feel like my mind was just giving me a taste, letting me know what was possible. Now it's forcing me to expand my consciousness in order to achieve the next level of lucidity. I've only done WILD once and I don't remember how, I only remember it happening and this was before I started studying it.

I started taking supplements recently as a method of reaching my goals. While this has yet to assist in a LD, I don't feel the attempt has been a waste. My Dream recall has doubled at least. I was able to remember at least 1 Dream every night, now it's 2 or 3 a night. My awareness during the day has also increased, I feel like my mind is working faster at certain times. Ive been taking 2400 mg Lecithin, and 1200 mg Omega 3 twice daily. I also take 400 mg of 5-htp half an hour before bed. I'm going to start taking GABA as soon as it gets here, so if anyone out the has any comments on supplements I'd love to hear them.

My short term goals are to attain lucidity again, and to make it a consistent thing. I would also like to be able to expand my control within the Deamscape. I can manipulate certain things, the coolest I think being my venue. The last LD I had involved me changing my surroundings into a jungle. I feel my awareness is good, but it isnt good enough.

My long term goals are to be able enter a LD at will. By WILD or DILD, I want to be able to go to sleep knowing I will LD. I would also like to be able to have a perfect balance in my Dream of controlling both the Dream itself and my emotions, allowing me maximum time in the Dreamscape. I wish to do this because I believe this kind of ability can be extremely useful to waking life as well. Every night we Dream, I want to do more with mine.
