Thread: Advice? and intro

New to lding and dreamviews so just introducing myself...
my name is Vikki, im 23 and from bayside, queens (NYC) and i came to hear about lucid dreaming when a friend recommended the movie Waking Life and was explaining the concept of lucid dreaming to me. and i was like "i've totally done that!" (Realized i was dreaming in a dream) but i never thought to try to control it. it was more like, "cool im dreaming and im aware of it" and just enjoyed it i guess.
so im really interested in learning as much as i can (ive already read sooo much in the last week or so) and trying out different techniques. as i mentioned in a different thread i just got LaBerge's book and intend on reading it cover to cover. i have had a hard time recalling dreams lately but i think that's because i tend to jump out of bed and run out of the door in the morning on account of lateness lol
Anyways, any tips from seasoned pros?

Hey Vikki, welcome to Dreamviews!

You've probably already found them, but in case you haven't, there's a Tutorials section with information about various techniques used for lucid dreaming. You might be particularly interested in the Dream Recall tutorial.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me or any of the dream guides (members with green names).

Vikki, I'm glad you decided to join us!

You might want to also check out the the Newbie Zone Guide which contains helpful information about this site: http://www.dreamviews.com/community/...ad.php?t=36723

If you should have any questions, please ask and we'll do our best to get you answers.

Welcome to Dream Views!
