lbkali2710's workbook

Reality Checks:
-pinching nose
-reading a sentence, averting eyes and reread the sentence again to check if it changed
-

Dream Signs:
-can't remember any because I have bad dream recall, and mostly attempted lucid dreaming with WILD
so never gave dream signs any attention
-
-

Short-Term Goals:
-commit to writing a journal and discovering more dream signs
-stabilize my sleeping pattern (going to bed early and wake up at a decent hour) so I can recognize my REM pattern
-naturally have reality checks throughout the day
-having an HD quality lucid dream :lol:
-stabilizing lucid dream

Long-Term Goals:
-have lucid dreams on a regular basis
-have a WILD, and practice so I can have a lucid dream whenever I want
-interact with subconscious
-ask dream characters what they represent
-have good dream control and do the following just for laughs:
-ride an ostrich
-eat unknown things, or foods I love but choose not to eat in real life
-very cheesy, immature and cliché: but having sex with someone I cant in real life.
fly and live in my favorite fantasy worlds are also a very anticipated experience

Lucid/Dream Recall History:
-without any practice I usually recall 2 dreams a nigh, some really bad nights I cant recall a thing.
but since I don't write anything I recall only significant features.
but for the past few years I have the reoccurring dream of being kidnapped, but even when i re dream it i cant remember im dreaming :(

Current Technique:
- only tried WILD but unsuccessfully
but the few lucid dreams I have had were from DILDs

Yay, workbook looks great! DJing is really the best way to improve recall, so I look forward to reading it once you get one started.

I started out with DILDs too, WILDs came later on for me. In retrospect though, most of my best LDs were DILDs, so I'm happy to have LDs either way. :)

Hey there! Hope you're having some luck with your short term goals. I have to say you've chosen some excellent ones; a lot of people really underestimate the impact a steady sleep schedule can have on your dreams. Glad to see that you're working on that!

If you haven't already, read into the All-Day-Awareness technique in the tutorials, and see if its something you might be interesting in. ADA will definitely help with the "natural reality checks" part. =]

Keep us posted!

A bit late but welcome to the class. ¯\_(°‿°)_/¯

oh god the past two weeks have been the busiest i've had this year, a friend from abroad came to visit and "surprisingly" took a lot of my time so didn't have the chance to fix my sleeping pattern which kind of sabotaged my lucid dreaming training... i think.
enough excuses! :cheeky:
on the good note i have been keeping a dream journal and my dream recall has improved, i can now recall up to 3 dreams a night and usually recall 2.
I am going to join the web chat class today and see where this goes to, sorry I have been taking my time with this workbook and my lessons but I promise to be better lol :)

Totally understandable! Hope you guys had a good time. :content: It's really, really hard to tackle a transition to early-to-bed, early-to-rise when you've got a buddy staying over.

Sweet! I'm glad you made the time to write your dreams down even though things were so busy for you when you were spending time w/ your friend. It's really, really easy to let dream journaling slip, so good for you keeping up with it! :goodjob:

Enjoy the chat! I wish that I could make it!

Sorry you've been so busy lately, I'm with you on that one. But that's good that you are keeping up with your journal. I find I have more lucid luck if I write in my journal every day, even when my sleep and recall are on the low side. In fact I have a fragment to record right now.
