Hello all dreamers. So, i read a little about Lucid Dreaming and I cant stop thinking about how wonderful this must be. I have never had a Lucid dream before, so i was wondering if you could maybe help me a bit. First: * How do I "activate" a lucid dream`? * Is there a special way to fall asleep needed? Please reply quick, im eager to start! Thiada

Hi and welcome to Dream Views. Here's a link to Seeker's Quick Start Lucid Dream Tutorial in the Tutorials sector of the site. >> Quick Start << I think that should answer your two questions. Do you dream journal? That's also a great starting point.

I have a dreamjournal right beside me at the moment, but still empty. But my question is, is there a good and effective way to fall asleep? And if there are, could you please describe it? Thanks Thiada

Welcome to Dreamviews! I don't completely understand your question about falling asleep. Are you referring to techniques to induce lucid dreams? If so, you can find them in this forum.

I mean like, is there something i can do to fall asleep easy?

I mean like, is there something i can do to fall asleep easy? I find that repeating something to myself, preferably lucid dreaming related, helps me to fall asleep faster. "I will recognize the dream state" would be a good phrase to repeat. You can also visualize a dream where you're lucid. I usually don't have any problems falling asleep, because I get up early during the weekdays and am dead tired by the end of the day. And on the weekends, I stay up until 2-3AM and then I'm also dead tired.
