Thread: FriendlyFace's workbook

So recently I've been noticing that in the mornings as I'm trying to fall asleep, I have these "dreams" that are a lot more coherent and detailed than the stuff I get in hypnagogia, but I'm not actually "there" the way I am in a normal dream. Like it's a scene playing out in front of me and I have no part in it. I was just wondering if that's maybe a step in the right direction for WILDing? Like if I could insert myself into those scenes I'm sure I would know I was dreaming.

Other than that not much to report. I've had a few lucid dreams since I last posted, but I didn't really do anything cool. When I become lucid I often don't quite realize that the characters in my dreams aren't actually the people they represent (with a few exceptions. a couple weeks ago I told my brother in a lucid dream that he wasn't my real brother. specifically I told him "you're just a little man in my head." he got really offended) so I treat them the way I would treat these people in real life... for example I will still be awkward around people I'm awkward around in real life, even though when I DON'T know that I'm dreaming I always connect with them in a really great way. I feel like if I could get over that I'd make more progress, not only in lucid dreaming itself but also in the analytical opportunities it provides.
