Hello all, |
|
Welcome! And yes, everyone can lucid dream with enough practice and motivation, some people just need more time than others. |

I like destruction and reality, and one invariably leads to the other.
'Dreams are real while they last. Can we say more of life?'
'We die to remember what we live to forget'
Thanks for the reply. I already drink a cup of apple juice before bed, and repeat my mantra while lying in bed with my eyes closed. Problem with the dream journal i've been having is since I never remember anything I have nothing to write in my DJ. Sometimes I MIGHT have a vague recollection of being on a boat or (insert location here), but other than that there are no feelings, thoughts, actions or other sensory stuff associated with the dream other than I remember being someplace, and then I don't even remember what the place I was at looked like just knew that I was there. I use boat because it was the thing I remember from the day before. |

Yes you can. I write any memory what-so-ever that I can recall. Even if I don't recall a dream, I write down "no dream memory". |

I would strongly reccomend trying ADA (All Day Awareness) it's a basic technique that encourages you to take in the small things during the day and concentrate on them, for example feeling the air your breathing in move trough your throat and down into or lungs, eventually you can tune into these 'little things' most of the day, it helped me a lot with dream recall when I was first starting out, but as others have already reccomended use your dream journal to its fullest potential, I always wright something in mine, even when I didn't remember a thing every night I wrote how I was feeling and my tiredness ect. |

Thanks all for the replies. Phased I actually spent a couple hours just now looking up ADA before I came back to this thread and saw your reply, I stumbled on it while looking up something else. It is hard for me to envision myself concentrating on such small things throughout the day I can't even really understand what the others are saying about being aware of things because I am always aware like when I feel my fingers clicking the keyboard etc. but it is something I decided i'm going to try. |

Good to hear buddy, you won't regret it, even if it doesn't help with obtaining lucidity it will defiantly make you feel better, it did both for me, don't see why it won't for you. I'm not sure what it is about ADA that appeals to me, but it's defiantly one of my favourite recall enhancement techniques. |

It can be more difficult for some people to attain lucidity. It took me two years of trying before I had my first LD. I wish that were an exaggeration. It seems like very young kids might have an easier time with this. It also seems like it is easier to retain that ability rather than trying to obtain it in adulthood. Still, it is possible. You can do this. You are on the right track. You are becoming lucid. Trust me on this one. |

I'm not always lucid, but whether I'm awake or asleep I'm always dreaming.
Thanks for the advice, my wife owned a dreamcatcher that she had over her bed before we got married. Its been sitting in a box in the closet ever since she moved in, maybe i'll dust it off and use it as a tool to train my brain on the importance of dream recall and hang it over my bed. As for the length of time it took you SuperOhm it makes me feel a lot better. I figured since I couldn't remember anything, I was just one of those guys who weren't meant to remember dreams or reach lucidity or something. But it's good to hear from a few people that haven't easily gotten it either but are not lucid. |

The dreamcatcher idea sounds awesome, I like using triggers as well, worked a treat for me when I was first starting out. Good luck again. |
