When I first started to practise lucid dreaming, I managed 2 lds in 4 nights, along with an extent number of dream recalls.

Now, some months later I'm trying again, combined with All Day Awareness, and some exercises of noting some parts of my daily routine while focusing on small details:

-day 1: due ADA, I had so far my most vivid dream (not ld).
-day 2 and 3: not a single memory of any dream. Which is weird since I intensified my ADA exercises, like a lot.

Should I not use an alarm in the first days? I kinda think I'm messing my sleep a bit due putting alarm clock for 4 hours after sleep, but since I take ages to fall asleep, I mess the cycles calculations. But I bet I won't wake up w/o alarm, and C.A.T is not an option due my working schedules

Thanks for the advice and nice to meet you guys
