I've been coming here for a little while, and I just started working on my ability to lucid dream a few days ago. At the moment my dream recall is absolutely horrible, so I'm working on that before I start attempting to have a lucid dream.



Anyway, I have a couple of questions I would like answered, if it's not too much trouble...


For anybody who has tried the HILD method, does it also work well to increase dream recall? I was thinking of trying that soon, but I don't think it would be worth the time just yet if I still couldn't remember my lucid dreams.

Secondly, for the VILD method, am I supposed to imagine the reality check succeeding or failing?
