hi from a noob :)

I'm not new to lucid dreaming, but i've only had a few sporadically. I'd like to learn to increase the frequency of lucid dreams and dreams in general.
I just recently got myself a Kindle and found that you can put a whole nights worth of mp3s on it and listen with headphones. I thought it would be easy to just go over to amazon and find some stuff but got overwhelmed by all the available mp3s there and that's how i found this forum. I know this is the introductory forum so i'm not looking for help here and will find the appropriate forum..maybe lucid aids? so i just wanted to say hi! :okbyenow:

Howdy and good luck! :D

Hi and welcome! I'm not sure what a Kindle is, but you definitely don't need music to induce Lucid Dreams. Read up on the different techniques there are, there are loads of tutorials lying around. Start by improving your recall, you do this by writing down your dreams. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask!

Yea you should really check out King Yoshis tutorial first probably. They are some of the best tutorials i have found while searching the WHOLE internet.

I wish I had a Kindle. By the way, Matte, a Kindle is a book reader of sorts. Great for reading books without needing an actual book. I know a few friends who have them and they love theirs.

Lucid Aids is the place you're looking for. Well, probably Audio Aids in particular. Either way, welcome to the forums! It's also nice to have new members. :)

thanks guys! i will check out those tutorials! sounds great. i love my kindle, it will hold over 3000 mb of books and/or mp3s. i don't do well with audio books so i figure i could use it for some brainwave and meditative stuff. Speaking of recall, which is difficult for me but getting better.....a long time ago i took some lucid dream 'course' on the internet. I got daily emails full of techniques and stuff. One of the techniques for recall was upon awakening and you realize you've just had a dream and it's slipping away fast to lay there completely still, don't do anything physical, including speaking and inside your mind only say some words over and over. I can't remember what the words were though :( It was something in the OHM or AHM family....like RO Ahm, Go Ahm. it was incredibly effective, my mind would flood with memory and recall of my dream and you'd think that i would remember what it is. but alas, real life things that are good for you and you 'ought' to be doing slip out of consciousness just like a dream too.
Thanks again for the nice welcomes! hope to post some successes soon!

You're probably speaking of RAOM GAOM. It's nonsense really, what you do when you wake up and lie completely still, is that you trick your brain into believing you're going back to sleep. This activates your "Dream Memory" and allows you to recall what you've dreamt. Just lie still with your eyes closed, and try not to fall asleep.

Just do that every morning and you'll get better and better :)

Wish you lots of luck man ! kinda doing the same

ah yes, that's it :) it really did worked for me though. I guess it helps to deactivate your linguistic, judging, narrating mind and keeps you in 'experiencing' mode.
