So the past 3 nights I've had plenty of dreams (3-4 a night - check DJ) and my recall is improving dramatically, although no full blow lucid awareness.
One or two dreams i'd actually be speaking to Dc's about lucid dreaming,trying some arbitrary induction method or have a weird pseudo- lucid state where I'm only on the surface layer awareness but easily slip back into the dream state.
I find this fairly strange because before I started the workbook i seemed to have them more frequently,and now it seems as though there's some added pressure to perform and get results which is actually hindering the process.
The night of the 29th when I performed a WBTB i found it difficult to get back to bed.
Once i did eventually fall asleep I was extremely tired. That night i had many dreams,but none lucid.
The following night I slept over at my girlfriends place so i thought id take a break.
Last night I performed a WBTB, waking myself after 6 hours of sleep.
I decided to stay in my bed during the initial wake up and dream journaling so it would be easier to fall asleep going BTB.
The method worked for falling asleep quicker, but the MILD was slightly more difficult to perform having the groggyness from not getting out of bed.
Alas no lucids last night either 
I'll be trying WBTB tonight after a 4.5 hour sleep,with focused MILD, but trying not to worry about the results too much as i feel this is the very thing that is holding me back.
Anyone else have a similar experience?or advice on the situation?
thanks
