Thread: Booney's Workbook

Week 05:
It has been a slow week for me and recall made a drastic drop.
But I know why! Which I guess is a step in the right direction. I think I've finally found out what my ideal sleep schedule is.
At first I thought my inconsistent working schedule would cause my LD attempts to fail, I thought I needed routine and stability.
But for me, I found out this is not the case, what works best for me is to attempt LDs during a natural sleeping cycle.
I came to this conclusion after two weeks of stable working hours. I thought it was perfect, finally I could focus and adjust to my regular bedtimes but no. Recall dropped and so there is no way of knowing if I had any LDs these last two weeks.
I did have one very vivid flying dream and made a mental/physical note of how it felt for future reference.
Also after reading a thread here about bending the elements I ended up bending air I was a full fleshed airbender, again made notes of the sensations.

So even though at the end, the dream recall came back and my dreams became more vivid it didn't come as easy as it used to be.

Next week I'll be back into my prefered working schedule which fits my natural sleeping schedule.
I expect great things then. Because I know I can, I've done it once, almost achieved it two weeks ago. It's just a matter of time and that time is soon.

Thanks Paigeyemps!
It really is hard to explain isn't it. Especially if you want to describe the difference between non-lucids and lucids.
Sometimes I'll mention lucid dreaming with my friends but then it always ends up in telling stories of these crazy dreams they once had.
They're cool stories, but I can tell they don't have a complete understanding what lucid dreaming actually is.

I run into this a lot. I've given up on it. At least there's dreamviews!
