It is. Resolve to do a reality check everytime you see water. You can make a list of whatever else you see is a dream link and do likewise. Whenever I do a RC I do the following: Hold my nose to see if I can breath through it, read something, look away and read it again, jump to see if I stay in the air any longer than usual, and critically ask if I know where I am and if this is exactly like the reality as I know it. |

Thank you!! |

On MILD you repeat the last two steps for a good time, but when you think the intention is set, relax and go to sleep. Even though technically you're not supposed to think about anything else, if this keeps you awake I would say just let your mind wonder its marry way and forget about it. I can't keep thinking "I will have a lucid dream" and picture myself in a dream every time I think about something else either. Being able to go to sleep is more important than the technicalities. |

Am I asking too many questions?? |

Well when you're learning something new you can never ask enough questions. |
|
Before I go to sleep, I try to influence what I want to dream about. I did this even before I started to learn about LDs and it's kind of a habit by now. Basically I think about a situation and think about it and think about it. I tend to find my mind wandering, but I also replay it over and over. It has never worked its way into my dreams, so I guess I shouldn't do it. |

Well I believe that once you have the habit of questioning wither you’re in the dream and it reaches your subconscious level, you will obtain it even without the exact RC being performed. I think you do need to weave your way into more vivid dreams though since they are fragmented, dark, so on. How consistently do you dream? Every night? How lengthy are they? A lot of what you described reminds me of myself when I start loosing a lot of recall. I think right now recall is mostly what you need to focus on. Only my more vivid long lasting dreams seem to take place in particularly bright environments. Remember that even if you are just stuck as an observer, it is your subconsciously created dream with your thoughts and dialogue. |

I don't really dream when I don't have my dream journal. I have been neglecting it for a couple of weeks now (I went away and was too lazy to unpack it) and I'm going to start to have it at my bedside again. |

Hi Kcat! I'm new here too and just posted a bit about hypnagogic imagery and tingling sensations that sounds a lot like your account. It sounds like your experience was a lot like mine: |
