      Cool Returning to the world of lucidity

      Hi everyone,
      I first discovered lucid dreaming at 11 years old. I checked out books on the subject and started writing down my dreams, using brainwave music, etc and successfully lucid dreaming. As I got older other things got in the way and I stopped paying as much attention to lucid dreaming, though I've always dreamed vividly. Now I'm 20 and determined to master lucid dreaming. For the past week I've been writing down at least one dream every night, using lucid dream mantras, and doing frequent reality checks. I'm here to make new friends with this interest (idk many people who understand this sort of thing,) and learn more about lucid dreaming techniques.
      I do have a question: Should I be writing down every single one of my dreams, or just one or two? I have long, vivid, detailed dreams and if I wrote down everything I remembered I'd be filling 6 or 7 pages a night and missing on out on a considerable amount of sleep, but if that's what I have to do to become a proficient lucid dreamer than that's what I'll do. BTW, I've have 3 lucid dreams in the past week.
      I appreciate any advice. Thanks

      Welcome to Dreamviews!

      The purpose of a dream journal is to help people remember their dreams, and to help people find recurring aspects in their dreams which they can use to become lucid. If writing down one or two dreams a night is enough for you to keep your dream recall sharp, you have no need to write more. If you want to be really thorough in looking for patterns in your dreams, however, it might be beneficial for you to write down more.

      Keep in mind, though, that searching for dream signs is only one method for inducing lucid dreams. Different methods work best for different people, so I would recommend that you read tutorials and experiment with the commonly used techniques (MILD, WILD, Awareness, WBTB), then find what works best for you.

      Good luck
