Thread: Hello, everyone.

Welcome to DV, Frank! I hope you enjoy your exploration of lucid dreaming.

Thanks for the kind words of welcome. I'm excited about the affirmative decision to pursue this old, but satisfying experience and see if I can recoup some of the abilities I once possessed. Its been a long time since I put any effort into cultivating, and enhancing my dream world/life, so I've been pleasantly surprised by recent results. Until I actually read up on lucid dreaming and began to employ some of the techniques I read about, I'd not remembered a dream in ages. Remembering ten dreams in three weeks is like an avalanche to me, so I am really encouraged.

One thing I've ALWAYS been able to do was to suggest to myself a time to wake up. I have this incredibly accurate internal clock. I never really need to set an alarm (although I always do). All I need to do is tell myself what time I want to wake up, and I usually nail it to the minute. I'm hoping whatever that ability represents will also help me achieve a lucid dream (or maybe several) in 2014.

Anyway, once again, thanks for the nice words of welcome.

Frank
