Thread: Bemistaken's Workbook

Hello Lucy,

So this has been my routine for the last couple of days:

Reality check several times a day (the reality check of my choice is levitation, this has worked very well with my successful LDs)

Stay excited, plan, and/or think about what I plan on doing in my lucid dreaming all day

I am getting at least eight hours of sleep .

I have always exercised at least 45 min- 60 min every day.

Go over mantras before I fall asleep ("I lucid dream" "I recognize I'm dreaming")

Attempted WBTB in a different area last night so partner will not disturb my attempt (my 'lucid hide out' which is the couch or recliner)

WBTB routine includes waking up after 5 hours of sleep, staying up for 10 min., then attempt to WILD.

WILD routine includes getting rid of mental chatter, wait for dream to start, and jump in. This is were I am failing miserably! I either end up falling asleep after 15 minutes or end up being to awake and can't go back to sleep.

Back up plan in case WILD doesn't work...I hope for a DILD. I have very rarely DILD in the past, mostly WILDs and DEILDS.

Does anyone have advice for improvement ?

Forgot to mention, my recall is great...I can remember at least 2-3 dreams every night.
