Transforming in my lucid dreams, first step into the community

[paigeyemps]

Thanks, Paige! I do already keep a dream journal, but not very structurally. I usually remember my dreams until days later, the most interesting ones sticking for months. Writing down every dream helps remembering them for even later though; I should really be more consistent, haha. I've nearly managed to induce a lucid dream while falling asleep yesterday, by the way, but snapped back to reality. Is there any way to prevent that from happening, besides relaxing? Not only does it help you improve you recall, your dream journal is also very helpful for motivation. You can look back on past dreams and lucids when you're having a dry spell, as well as use it to evaluate your attempts and be in better touch with your dream world. And I don't necessarily mean in a spiritual way, but mostly like in a way that you have a better understanding of how your dreams usually work. As for snapping back awake, pretty normal. You can try focusing on the dream and visualizing, to sort of pull you into the mental aspect more. Should you get snapped to reality, don't fret, just start over, maybe shift to a more comfortable position.
