I'm not big on introductions, but I figured I'd give a short background as it how I got here and my personal experiences with lucid dreaming. I've been interested in lucid dreaming for a year or two now, but I haven't used any techniques or taken any steps towards having regular lucid dreams. The main culprit for this was the huge amount of techniques and things you could do to improve your chances of lucid dreaming. It all seemed a bit daunting and I simply didn't have the time to go through all the WILDs, MILDs, DILDs, and other popular techniques. Before I move on, I'd like to say that I HAVE had lucid dreams before, and I still have them 6-7 times a year. That being said, about a week ago I decided I could spare the time and get a list of techniques that looked like they would work for me. I found this site two days ago while researching various WILD techniques, and this site grew on me rather quickly. I've compiled a few induction techniques to try over the next few months or so, starting with Harionago's "Rhythm Induced Lucid Dream" and going on from there. I will be trying the RILD technique tonight and will post the results tomorrow. I figure I'll give each technique a month or two and see which ones work best for me.

Well that's pretty much everything I can say about my experiences with lucid dreaming. I'm very happy I've found this site, and any beginners tips would be greatly appreciated.
