Thread: New and Interested

Hey, Im new to all this Lucid dreaming stuff. I recently started reading about it and I found it really interesting and im looking to take my interests further. So last night I started my journey to my first Lucid dream. I started with the reality checks. Every time I thought about Lucid dreams id hold my nose and try to breath then look at my hands and asked if I were dreaming. Id do this everytime I thought about it, I dont it about 6 times today which I think is alright. Hopefully it will pay off soon enough. Also before I sleep I told my self id wake up after my dream, which I did but failed to stay awake to write my dream down. In the morning I woke and remembered my dream luckily enough but I probably missed out on other dreams or missed important parts.

I also started my dream journal last night. I must say I had quite a strange dream to start it off .

I seemed to be at K-Mart (shopping center) for some reason there was an announcement that there was a new teacher. The announcer had the voice of Side Show Bob from the simpsons. When I saw this so called teacher that looked like Keanu Reeves he instantly tried to kill me. I somehow had a gun but when I was shooting at him the bullets either didnt harm him or they didnt come out the gun. As I ran out of bullets he stood over me with a knife as he slashed I woke.

When I woke I stayed awake enough to check the time it was about 4:20 in the morning.

Anyway thanks for reading


Edit - Also I was wondering will listening to calming things like rain while I try and sleep affect my chances of a Lucid dream at all? I was listening to rain last night I had a dream but it wasnt Lucid.
