      Lately I have not been recalling anyhting, I have been getting bad sleep because I broke my back last week unfortunately. That and staying up late and waking up early hasnt helped. last night before I went to bed, I thought about how my recall has been non-existent lately and I would make an effort to recall or lucid. I also went to bed early. It paid off big time, totally a great night last night. I had another wonderful dream with the orca. one that makes me sad I cant see them now! It was a pretty powerful dream for me. Aghhh i feel empty that they were just a dream lol. One day Im going to see them and maybe work with them if marine biology is truly where my passions and interests are.

      Hi there, still alive ive been gone for a while though! Slowly working on dreaming up again figured I would start tracking my progress again. I had a very brief lucid dream a night ago so I m glad some of the practice seems to have worked its way to long term memory. I have been out of practice lately and trying to get up to speed a bit. My recall the past two weeks has been good, just havent been recording everything.

      Almost a full year ago I made that last post. Time really goes I suppose. This past month, perhaps even longer than that, I have been thinking about lucid dreaming. I haven't even had to make a conscious effort to make sure I think about it, it has just naturally been flooding my mind more often, which is certainly welcomed. So more often I have had it on the mind, and I have slowly crept back into the my desire to LD. I had been on a fairly long hiatus, and last time when I thought I was "back again" I really wasn't at the time. This time though it feels different, for as long as I have been thinking about it, pondering whether to jump back in or not, I think I can safely say it's time to increase my efforts again. The final motivation came to me last night/this morning at about 3AM. I awoke due to drinking too much water before bed. Got up, got back to bed and lightly thought about LDing. I lay on my back and just wait. 20 minutes go by and I cant fall asleep, so I finally roll over on my back, with a slight sense of defeat and fall asleep. Only I enter a dream, non lucid at first. I open a padlock and fall into a dark room where I cant move, realizing i'm experiencing REM atonia my awareness heightens but I wake up, partially an instinct to wake myself up from it as I did out of fear as a child, forgetting it's current usefulness in LDing for me. Now I lie awake and aggravated I woke myself up out of it. So I fall asleep again, and I immediately enter he dream conscious. I am amazed! It was short; 30 seconds long only. I had forgotten the feeling of being Lucid in the dream world and it was very rejuvenating. I wont link it here, it was short and a bit odd, but it's in my dream journal for those interested. There was even one more instance of becoming aware in another dream after that one but the recall is really lacking on it so I am hesitant to fully confirm it, despite recognizing my LD time-goals within the dream as the only fragment. Now that I remember the feeling, I want it back. This time though, I wont force myself and tire myself out of the practice like I did before.

      Welcome back and congrats on the ld!

      Yes, time flies by pretty fast, doesn't it. But on a positive note one way or another we always end up coming back here - because we are lucid dreamers.

      Now that I remember the feeling, I want it back. This time though, I wont force myself and tire myself out of the practice like I did before.
      Agree. I think what matters most is setting your practices in such a way that they are not intrusive. Consider them a continuation of the adventure that was already started in dreams. Think about having a lucid dream and examining every item in great detail and amazement. Then during the day, in our practices we can do the same. So, in the end, we are not forcing anything, just enjoying ourselves by being more aware. And with time results will follow - both in dreams as well as in waking life.

      Quick little update. I had another Lucid the other night, but did not post a journal. I should have though, it was interesting. Basically it happened mid nightmare-ish. I remember being in my dorm but all the hall lights were out and it was really dark in the hallway but some light in the room I was standing in. Once I became lucid I tired to summon a DC but looking down the dark ness of the hallway I kind of felt like something else was there and of course since I was expecting to see something creepy something creepy did show up, two shadows were moving down the hall at me and I knew it was a dream still but I was a bit nervous anyway since this is the first time it happened and I couldn't make them disappear. I did not get hurt or anything, but I did not have the best control over this one.
