Thread: New and amazed!

It could work, but the only fear i have is that your mind is so used to seeing tattoos on, say, your arms that it would also occur in your dreams. Some people wear a watch or some type of wrist band when they sleep and use that as a reality check. Most people plug their nose and try to breathe through it though. That seems to be the most common and reliable.

Also, be sure to start up a Dream Journal and read up on some induction techniques. It usually takes a few weeks for someone to get their first Lucid Dream and the biggest part is don't give up. Good luck and happy dremaing!

Thanks, yeah i figured that might be the case with tattoos,
I started a dream journal a few days ago and iv'e managed a dream a night so far I have a terrible memory but I the intrest ive taken in lucid dreaming is really helping. I suppose staying motivated is they key

A dream a night is a good place to start out. Making sure you are motivated is key, but don't over do it. I've seen too many people, myself included, who work too hard. You don't want to over exert yourself but you don't want to slack off either. Just going a few reality checks throughout the day, keeping a DJ and maybe browsing these forums every now and then is all you need.

Thanks I see what you mean, its better to stay consistently motivated instead of over doing it,
I was also wondering if people experience fear when lucid dreaming?
