Thread: Another novice lucid dreamer

Hi everyone. It's so nice to meet you. I am Eliza Palmer, a thirteen year old who discovered lucid dreaming many months ago. I haven't had many lucid dreams, and the ones I have had have been very brief. Is this because I do not do a good job recording my dreams in my dream journal?
Anyways, from my research, lucid dreams are much more vivd than normal dreams. I don't find my normal dreams particularly fuzzy or vague as they are ,though. I also can usually remember them pretty well too. I am interested in lucid dreaming mostly because of the control it is said to offer. Must I really write in my journal?
I am wondering if, because everything is more realistic in lucid dreams, if lucid dreams can be as vivid as, or even a whole lot more vivid than real life. I am a bit worried about this because if I was having a lucid dream in which I was flying over swathing corn and wheat fields, and hit a telephone pole, would it hurt more than a normal dream? I have been shot full of holes in normal dreams, and it still doesn't really hurt.
I want to have lucid dreams, but every time I have one, I have to remind myself that I am dreaming so often that I don't have time to do I anything else. If I get off my butt and try to go hangliding or something, more often than not I get so caught up in trying to find one, I forget I'm dreaming. I also try to fly in my dreams whether or not I am lucid. Everyone seems to be able to do it but me.
Also, what is your favorite induction technique for beginners? I would really appreciate some guidance.
Please offer some tips.
Thank you for reading my post and have a nice daywish-3.jpg
