BrutalNightmare's Workbook

Hey! ;) I though of starting this workbook because I need some extra motivation to get back at lucid dreaming again. I've been into LD for about 4 years now, and I had at least 20 lucids, unfortunatly all of them were pretty quick because I never got to improve my dreaming stability...So I never really made much progress in lucid dreaming, but of course, that's about to change now! =P

Reality Checks:
-The hand RC
-Looking around and thinking if this makes sense
-What was I doing 10 minutes ago?
-Looking at my wrist tattoo that says "oneironaut" and checking again to see if it has changed

Dream Signs:
-Started recently dream journaling again, so my dream signs are probably not the same anymore, so yeah, don't know.

Short-Term Goals:
-Have a great dream recall
-Have better stability in LDs
-Visit the places and meet the characters of my fav books and movies
-Dance in a magical forest by a fireplace and surrounded by mystical beings
-Meet my higher-self

Long-Term Goals:
-To lucid dream whenever I want

Lucid/Dream Recall History:
-20 something Lucid Dreams, mostly MILD, and one WILD.
-Once upon a time I could recall 3-5 dreams a night, now I'm back at 1-2. -.-'

Current Technique:
-MILD with WBTB

Latelly I've been also improving my spiritual life, so I started meditating whenever I got the chance, and I'm also trying All Day Awareness (damn, really hard xD but I notice some improvement!)
Also, I've been reading about lucid dreaming (currently reading: The Tibetan Yogas of Dream and Sleep by Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche).
Before bedtime I try to relax and use autosuggestion for better dream recall.

WBTB
-During the week and Saturdays: Micro-WBTB 4:30h after sleep, go back to sleep, and micro-WBTB again after 90min (even though I'm considering not doing this last WBTB because today I felt sleepier and tired in the morning). I write down dreams, I meditate for 5/10 minutes, go back to sleep with autosuggestion: "If something weird happens, I'll know I'm dreaming"
-At Sunday: WBTB after 6h of sleep. Stay awake for about an hour. I write down dreams, watch some videos about things I want to experience or places I want to go in LDs, listen to some inspiring music, DreamViews, autosuggestion, reality checks and meditation.

And that's it for now! ;D

Thanks alot! Yeah Fight Club is awesome :D


I was on the right track for a few days, but tonight it was weird xD I went to sleep at 00:00h but I was so exhausted that I couldn't even use autosuggestion for dream recall, I pretty much fainted... But for some reason I kept waking up after a lot of dreams but of all those times I only remember fragments.
I even performed a micro-WBTB from 4:00h til 4:10h (went to the bathroom, let my cat in to eat something and waited for him to go outside) and I was thinking about using autosuggestion while falling asleep, but once again, it looks like I fainted.
But not everything is lost! Tomorrow is Sunday, which means I'm going to do a real WBTB (yeiiih), so lets see how it goes!

Things have been chaotic lately, so I couldn't focus on LD and my sleep schedule have been irregular... But things are back to normal so I'm going to start again today. For now I'm just going to focus on a better dream recall and let's see how it goes! ;)
