Chocachoc's Workbook

[Chocachoc]

Hello! I've had several phases of getting into lucid dreaming over the past 5 years and I'm wanting to improve further. This forum looks fantastic to keep up motivation and the classes and challenges look like they'll be a great way to develop lucid dreaming skills! Reality Checks: - Counting Fingers Used to push thumb through hand, but counting fingers I found to be a lot more reliable. Dream Signs: - No classic signs really spotted, will look through journal and highlight later. Short-Term Goals: - Improve Dream Recall - Lucid Dream more regularly - Stabilise Dreams - Get back into habit of RCs - Improve Flying Long-Term Goals: - Lucid Dream Regularly - Speak with inner self - Set up situations and put them into practice - Shapeshift self Lucid/Dream Recall History: - Previously practiced RCs and recorded my dream journal regularly, which I have recently typed up into word. Used to write in a book but now write in phone notes as I feel I can write faster and don't need to move to get a pen, turn lights on or sit up. Currently out of the habit so want to build up the routine again. Had a fair number of LDs now, the main thing I've been practicing in them is flying which I'm still trying to get better control with. Dream stabilisation is something I really need to work on. I frequently feel as if I'm aware of my own body in bed, particularly if I LD during an afternoon nap, and confuse my movements in the dream with the potential that I could be moving my actual body. I had one successful WILD during an afternoon nap, ending with my first experience of sleep paralysis, which was horrible as I misinterpreted the sight of my covers as a person that was harassing me and it was scary. I'm glad I had that experience though as it's another step in my learning. Current Technique: - DILD, MILD, WILD, WBTB
