alright
just thought id say hello. found out bout this lucid dreaming lark couple of days ago and found this website - tis very helpful
anyways i got a quick question for ya. night before last i began to start my dream journal. went well, i seemed to wake after every rem (i think?) and recorded bout 5 dreams all together.
so anyways last night, i woke up after about 2 hours of sleeping and after recording my dream (was like some low budget minority report) i remember reading about this WILD technique where you induce lucidity by repeating to yourself 'im gonna have a lucid dream' over and over till you fall asleep.
so i tried it. it was weird at first. i was pretty knackered, so my body was half asleep. i started to see these colours and shapes in front of eyes so i concentrated on those and kept repeating said quote. then i began to have these fuzy feelings (since read-up that these are called 'vibrations'). they passed and i carried on, feeling pretty wierd.
then the second vibrations came along, and my god they were strong. cos i hadnt read up on WILD i didnt know they were normal. it were so weird and i felt myself kind of slip into a dream state like. but it was strong a strong sensation that i werent ready for (whole body felt soo fuzzy), i kinda freaked out and snapped myself out of it. wen i did my heart was rapidly beating and i felt well strange.
was this a kind of WILD experience? or is it just something else? just asking cos im new to all this
cheers if anyone could help us out,
andy
