That's all good, man. Racking up, recording, and analyzing those vivid non-lucids is a huge part of the game. I spent more than two months doing that before I figured things out and finally got my second lucid dream. It takes time, but as you spend more time in both regular dreams and LDs, you get to know your dreamworld better and better.

At some point, you get to know it so well that some situations won't even require a reality check. You just get an "Oh, I know this..." feeling.

And dude, congratulations to your girlfriend on her success! So is she trying anything at all or is it purely down to how much she hears you talk about it? Hopefully she wrote it down so that it really sticks in her mind. Although, to be honest, I didn't write my first one down for several days (since I had no idea I was supposed to be doing that) but the memory of it didn't fade at all. I'd had my mind blown.

Keep up the great work! Both of you! Your girlfriend has earned herself a gold star in the Intro Class, even though she has never enrolled.

Hey Canis and thanks for reading again!

Well all she knows is that lucid dreaming exists.. i didn't even tell her about WBTB or Reality Checks.. nothing really. So it was more of a unattended lucid dream.. because she didn't even want to achieve one really.. she was interested in lucid dreaming, yes.. but she didn't take the effort to ask or read herself in hehe

Will hopp to bed now, update tomorrow!

Welcome Michael!

Looking forward to reading some of your Lucid Dreams

Thanks Chimpertainment!

Really fun because last night/morning i had my first lucid dream people!!!
YEAAHS!

Thank you OpheliaBlue, CanisLucidus, Paigeyemps and Xanous for the tips and the help at this workbook!!

Outstanding!! Great job, Michael! I am super excited for you! I'd say it's time for:

That LD is the well-deserved fruit of your hard work. To the many, many more in your future!

I'll go check out that DJ entry.

Thank you very much CanisLucidus!

Yeaa

Have to say congratulations Michael! I'm still working on getting my first one!

Thank you reddite!

Just keep believing in your self and dont stop!

YOU DID IT! YAY! I had a matrix construct WILD like that once my self. That's so cool, man. By the way are you sure you were rubbing your real hands at the end there? I have a few false moments like this before.

Awesome news Michael!

see, I know how to time it just right so get here right when the action starts!

That was a crazy dream experience too, very rebirth-like imagery. Its like you have a new body in another dimension.

Congrats!

Xanous.. Actually.. NO haha.. But it felt so real and i remember me telling my mind stay in the lucid.. *hand rubbing* but some how i lost it haha..

Thanks Chimpertainment! Yes your timing is about right haha!
And yeah the experience was very cool!

Woohoo congrats on the LD Michael!

So that point where you thought you were rubbing your hands in your bed WAS still a dream, if I read that correctly? I'm just asking because if so, it was a false awakening (and FAs are just another chance to get lucid again). If you have FAs frequently, you can RC and turn it into a chance to DEILD, once you get used to the feeling of it.

Thank you very much OpheliaBlue, yea i think it was a false awakening.. haha but i didn't know how to deal with it since it was my first lucid ever.. Thanks for the tip and reply!

I can't comment on your journal entry, so I'll say it here -- congratulations on lucid dream #2! It's funny that the heavy winds gave you sort of a natural WBTB, followed by an LD.

Nightmares can be a great catalyst for lucid dreaming due to the strong emotions involved. Two of my most recent three LDs have been converted nightmares, in fact. I don't blame you for bailing out, as I've done it myself. Later on as you get more and more comfortable with lucid dreaming, you'll have the opportunity to turn the nightmare into a fun lucid dream and/or learning experience. My own tendency in lucid nightmares has been to escape and then go have fun somewhere. But I'm working on the idea of speaking with nightmare figures, asking them what they represent, etc.

Keep up the good work! You are on a roll.

Hey CanisLucidus!

Thanks for you reply, that is very interesting!

Yea your right, once i get used to Lucid dreaming i will get Neo to teach me his skills and then i will gonna fight them

Hopping to bed now, will update tomorrow!

So last night i had my third lucid dream! a very cool one!

Can me found here for who's interested: Superjumping and Neo taught me fighting, and I defeated him. - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

Thanks! ~Michael

CONGRATULATIONS!!

SALSA DANCE HAHAHAHA

One question though. In the dream you mentioned that when you went into the water you thought about 2 choices. One was to let yourself die and wake up, or get lucid and breathe underwater. How did this moment feel? Was it kinda lucid already, or was it nonlucid and just kind of part of the story?

Heeey Paige!!

Thank you very much, and yeh yeh the SALSA DANCE... i was laughing about it aswell when i woke up, haha

Uhm yea that moment with the 2 choices was pretty lucid already.. a little bit like the same feeling as my first lucid nightmare with those vampires, where i decided to end the dream because i was a little scared.. so yea thats the feeling i had when i was underwater and thought about dieing and wake up.. in the other hand i knew i was dreaming.. and it was like 'just do it michael.. breath.. dont be a little scary bitch.. its a dream!' so yea i think this is the best way to describe the feeling.. it was very very nice once i'd step over my fear (i guess thats what it felt like?) !

That's amazing Michael. Not just the whole lucid dream, but the fact that in nightmares you are beginning to have that lucid choice making moment. I think this is huge because one of the main goals of lucid dreaming is to help people get out of terrible nightmares. And even better, you could have ended it and woken up, but instead you decided to turn it onto a fun dream. And if that wasn't enough, you achieved your goal of "Fighting Like Matrix". You even got a one-on-one training session with Neo, how bad ass is that? So well done my friend, you're making leaps and bounds and I predict many more wonderful lucid accomplishments in your future.

Well phrased

Thank you very much OpheliaBlue!

Yeaa i achieved my goal in this lucid, very cool!

And yea.. i am making steps and sometimes i think; i really did that?.. Because i thought i wasn't ready for 'this' or 'that'.. but it seems I am.. and doing great!

Thanks everyone

Today i reached a milestone in my dream recall..

I had 4 dreams and woke up 3 times total.. after the first dream recall i didn't write anything down.. nor the second.. and after i finally woke up i was still able to recall all dreams from memory, normally when i wake up after a dream.. and then fall asleep and dream again.. this dream is 'highlighted' and i forget about the other dreams.. now i didn't
