You wanna increase your dream recall first - dream journal. Whenever you wake up, right down anything about the dream. Write down as much detail as possible! |

Hey :). I'm new to this.
So I learned about lucid dreaming just yesterday and I was amazed. I decided that I would like to learn how to do it but right now I'm not in an environment where I can really keep a dream journal (in the next 2 weeks I will be). So I came here to ask: What should I do to start trying to have a lucid dream? I've already learnt a lot about the techniques and reality checks (something I've been doing like every 10 minutes, lol), but I dunno what else to do. I tried to have one last night and while I was falling asleep, I kept thinking 'Am I dreaming?', and I just kept repeating that. After a while, I started hearing noises and felt vibrations. Next thing I knew, I awoke in the middle of the night, but I couldn't see very well and immediately fell asleep. Anyways, this morning I managed to remember a few things about a dream I had last night
. Sooooo.. yeah. How can I keep practicing without the use of a dream journal?

Well dream journal is crucial to recall. And recall is the most important skill for LDs. You are off to a good start. Remember, though, that with RCs, its the quality and not the quantity. You dont really have to do one every ten minutes, but when you do you must put yourself 100% into it. Also EVERY TIME you wake up, RC. Like always. Ive learned it the hard way this morning

Only RC when something wierd happens, or you feel strange, like you could be dreaming
WBTB is a useful method to get your first LD. Get up after about 5.5 hours of sleep, get up, and think about lucid dreaming for awhile, look over your dream journal and then go to sleep.
Remember, getting your first LD takes time and patience
And the noises/vibrations means your were pretty close to WILDing
well done!
Until you get a dj, just think about your dreams ALOT in as much detail as possible, but get djing as soon as you can Good luck. Also, when I felt the vibrations, I was only just starting to go to sleep, it wasn't in the middle of the night. So is that still WILD?

WILD is possible at the beginning of the night, but it is a lot harder and takes a lot more training to get done regularly, unless you are some LD god, which i have met one or two of. using WILD with Wake Back to Bed seems to work the best.

The evening hangs beneath the moon, a silver thread on darkened dune.
With closing eyes and resting head; I know that sleep is coming soon.
Upon my pillow, safe in bed,
A thousand pictures fill my head,
I cannot sleep , my mids aflight;
and yet my limbs seems made of lead. ---Whitacre's Sleep---

Yeah, I'll be getting a dream journal once I get back to my usual environment in 2 weeks Originally Posted by Ray23

Also, it was pretty hard for me to LD cause my cousin kept getting on my bed -.-.
