Thread: Hello

Hi everybody,

I found out about this LD thing quite recently and I have decided to try it, or should I say "do it" since master Yoda and the tutorial think so. My internet browser brought me here and since this place looks very professional and super cool, you might start seeing me here quite often . I have some short questions though. I don't know if they are somwhere in the tutorial or not, but here they are anyway... I found some people talking about some audio Hemi-Sync files, that have something to do with LDs, I don't really get it, so if anyone would care to explane? And I seem not to be remembering many dreams, not a night, but for weeks and so on. So the question is, is there a way to "improve that" besides sleeping more (Probably one of my main reasons for not remembering anything)?

That's about it. So Hi again! Thanks in advance for any info.

Hey Bonsay Welcome to the forum.

Glad you found the forum, I'm sure you'll find it extremely helpful. And the community here is great as well.

As far as improving recall goes, do you already have a dream journal? If not, that's #1 - start one. Once you know that you'll have to start remembering dreams so you can write them down, it'll be more ingrained in your mind to remember more dreams. Also, make sure you aren't drinking any alcohol or smoking pot before bed - as these 2 things kill recall. Before falling asleep, say to yourself that you will wake up after each dream and remember each dream - word it however you want. Keep repeating it and reaffirming it to yourself. When you wake up, don't move and keep your eyes closed. Concentrate on what you were just dreaming. Try to remember key words or sentences to help kick-start the memory of the dream. Scribble down keywords on a pad next to your bed so you can remember the dream later, or some people just write down as much of the dream in complete detail as they can remember as soon as they wake up. Just do whatever works for you.

See you around the forum - Good luck and have fun!

Thank you very much!
Any ideas about Hemi-Sync? I somehow got them... one more question, is it possible for a newbie like me to almost have a WILD? I tryed a newb tape of that Hemi-Sync in the afternoon, a person was telling me that I'm gona fall asleep in 10 seconds... After that I didn't really fall asleep. All I did feel was my jaw dropping and not being able to move it (Maby was I just so relaxed?), then my eyes went crazy and some light flashes happened. I just thought that my eyes are getting a little too much, how should I put it... "excited", so I just opened my eyes to give them a breathe.

Edit: Oh and my breathing, heart rate quickened. That was also odd too at the time.

Its possible for newbies to WILD but everyones different to it varies. It sounds like you almost WILDed with the lights. Just try to ignore any weirdness you feel and stay concentrated on WILDing.

Hope that helps.

Oh and welcome.

Thank you too... about the eye stuff, I somehow felt something is happening, but I didn't know what to do with them (my eyes), as they moved so much the only thing I could think of was opening them. I didn't read about WILD at that time, as it sounded like something you need lots experience for.

Welcome!

Hey, welcome to the DreamViews forum. Trippy avatar, by the way.

yer i know... i keep looking at it... its mad lol

welcome

have a nice day

This is a silly question, but should I write down some dreams I remember that are 3- 6 years old . I'm guessing not, since dreams probably change with age.

Hi Bons, and Welcome

It's primiarily the content of your dreams that's important, not their age. Dreamsigns are something that can start to appear in your dreams at anytime. The more dreams you have written down that you can review later, the greater the chance you'll have of finding such consistencies.

If you find it irritating to keep them closed, then you might as well open them (no sense in having something like that keep you from sleeping). Hoewever, from the description you gave it sounds like you were pretty close to WILDing&#33;

Next time, if you can, try to keep your eyes closed and try to visualize a seen in your mind. Any type of seen. You might then start to hear sounds and even begin to see the scene unfold before you. THEN you&#39;ll be dreaming&#33;

Thanks
Since I started getting interested in LD and such things, I seem to be remembering loads of them. I remembered a little snapshot from my dream this night and that&#39;s a big + in my dream recall, since it is one of the first dreams (that I know of) I remembered after quite a few years. Looks like thinking about dreams improves Dream recall . I also have some ideas for what my dream signs could be. Probably the time slowing down for my body while the scene goes on with normal pace, makes me run, jump,... slowly, which is quite annoying when a big dude is chasing me and I want to give him the super kick in the chest (makes me just push myself away from him slooowly ).

lol... how crazy.... I had this really wierd dream that kept on happing when I was little.... about vacume cleaners chaseing me (wtf i know) but then one time they connerd me... and I gave up I closed my eyes and hoped for the worst and nothing happend so I opended them and they were gone... so you could try that and maby when you open them that guy will just be gone... otherwise spin... lol might lose the scene but

I had a thing with lifts/elevators .
