Thread: EyeofNight's Workbook

This seems like an interesting way to get back into lucid dreaming, so here goes.

Reality Checks:
- Thumb through hand.
- Counting Fingers
- Reading clocks, screens, books, etc.

Dream Signs:
- Masks.
- Distorted locations (Staircases that go up and lead to a lower floor, odd proportions for hallways, etc.)
- People I have not spoken to for years.

Short-Term Goals:
- Improve recall.
- Have a lucid dream.
- Regulate sleep cycle.

Long-Term Goals:
- Fly freely.
- Summon a castle, vehicle, person, animal, or object.
- LD twice a week.
- Experiment with information processing in dreams. (Could some dreams be utilized not only for enjoyment, but for memorization, mental skill improvement, or thought experiments?)

Lucid/Dream Recall History:
- As of late? Very poor. In the past I had fairly good recall and had LDs with some frequency, usually around one or two a week. However for the past couple years I've been lucky to have an LD once every three or four months and my recall has basically vanished.

Current Technique:
- DILD
- MILD

Sleep Schedule:
Natural: Sleep 2-4 am. Wake around 10-11am. (Despite often getting less sleep than the other cycles, I feel most comfortable and refreshed with this schedule.)
School 1: Sleep 1 am. Wake 9 am.
School 2: Sleep 12 am. Wake 7:30 am.

Despite how much I have tried, I have never successfully changed my natural cycle. Even with consistently waking up for school for long periods of time. The moment my schedule no longer requires specific times, such as during breaks, I fall back into my natural cycle almost immediately.
