Hiya! So I just joined the forum. I've been trying to actively have lucid dreams on and off now for probably 2 years now, cant say I keep track of time well. Not done too well though. So, I thought I would join this little community and see if it might help and maybe makes some friends while I'm at it. :cheeky:
Hi there, i'm sure it will! Welcome :)
What induction method do you use?
I try to stay conscious as I drift into sleep but that's yet to work. I used to use reality checks like light switches and reading text but since I started using that I can now change light levels in my dreams and can at least comprehend text. So at the moment nothing really.
Do you combine your WILD with a WBTB? It is very hard to WILD at initial sleep as you do not go straight into a REM cycle.
I have tried but I have only had partial success on one occasion with doing so. Normally I don't remember to try WILDing after waking up. I'm actually getting ready to head to sleep. Is there any suggestion you could make before I do so. I took a run about 30min ago. I'm hoping that may get me to sleep a little faster.Quote:

Time taken to get into REM at initial sleep is 1.5 hours up to 2 hours whereas duration between REM periods are much closer throughout the night. It is also easier to get into SP.
Best advice i can give you is be aware, but also be very calm. Relax and relax further.
