Im 22 and learnt about lucid dreaming from a text file my flat mate sent me. It sounded interesting enough so i do wat anyone who requires more info does and googled, hence i found this site. Im farely new to forums also and this is the first one i belong to, but thats another story.
Anywho. Ive never lucid dreamt but am very willing to learn. I am one of those types who is able to remember dreams well enough however since putting in the effort and recording them in a journal, my abilty to remember every detail has exculated. In fact i find it quite tiresome to write down all the info i remember hence i tend to just store it in my head. My dreams are interesting enough that i seem to be able to store quite a few in there, and mainly just focus on the details that are most obviously signs that i am dreaming. The most freaky thing that happened to me was by following some instructions i found on here, and telling myself before i sleep that i will wake after my first dream cycle and remember my dream, it actually happened. I was amazed, my subconcious listened to me. So from that point on i have been motivated to train and learn. So far i have about 30 dreams in my journal. I have made a single reality check (check my watch - i was surprised to find i had a watch on even though i dont wear one in real life ) however this wasnt evidence enough convince myself i was dreaming . So im at the point where i need to be able to make reality checks. I wake from my dreams (god damn my imagination is creative) and kick myself everytime for not noticing how extravagent the dream is, and how obvious it is a dream.
so yeah, thats me. Just wondering if anyone has any ideas on how i will be able to enoucourage reality checks in my dreams. I guess the every day training in real world will probably help, am i correct?
Thanks for reading, catch yas around
Welcome to Dream views! If you want to know when you are dreaming, ask yourself everyday, "Am I dreaming?" anytime an event that doesn't usually happen happens. Also, you can try this method, b/c this is a guarenteed way. Make yourself ultra-hyper b4 you go to bed (watch a comedy or eat a candy bar), lay perfectly still in bed, & after a while (90 mins max), you will start to feel static running through your legs, & won't be able to move, & you might see mirages. This is when you repeat to yourself in your mind "I am dreaming!" Works for me all the time!
PS: please work on your grammer a little
