Hi everyone.

Hello everyone. A few nights ago, I had a very vivid lucid dream and was able to memorize quite a bit of it the next day. This came totally out of the blue for me. I've known about lucid dreaming for quite a while, but never took the time to explore it. So this being the first personal experience with LDs (in my adult life anyway), I've decided to do some more research about it and here I am. I've been here since yesterday, lurking around the forum and reading all the basic introductions on the site. I was suprised how quick the development is going. From never recalling any dreams I went to recalling at least 3 long dreams a night right from the start. For now I'm just keeping track of everything with my journal. In a few days I will do my first attempts in triggering LDs. Looking forward to share my progress with the community on this forum!

Hi and welcome! Congratulations on your first lucid Which technique have you looked into and seems to fit your lifestyle the best? It's good to try them all out, but focus on one that feels the best for a few weeks to see how it works for you. If you have any questions, we're here to help!

Hey there Booney and welcome to Dreamviews! Congrats on your first lucid dream! You got pretty lucky seeing as most people's first lucid dream is short because of excitement! I hope you learn lots on this site, and start having ferequent lucid dreams! And doesn't it just motivate you to have another lucid dream once you have one? Oh and by the way, what was your lucid dream like? I would love to read about it!

Thanks guys. The dream was some sort of fast forward date with a beatiful woman. I gained consciousness pretty early on and just kinda rolled with it. The ending was as good as a date could end, if you know what I mean. What triggered my consciousness in the dream was the fact that it took place during the summer on a white beach and beautifull blue ocean. And most off all the sensations I felt in general, I could feel the warmth of the sun, the breeze coming from the ocean, and how the woman slightly tightent her grip on my hand to show her affection during the walk. This took place 4 days ago. Since then my main goal has been to improve my dream recall. I've been very succesfull so far, right away my DJ has 6 dreams from the last 2 days. I think I should try to keep this up before I can really get into the lucidity. But when I do, I think I'll give DILD a try first. Seeing as how I gained consciousness in the first by observing the environment.
