New person thread about me (Hi).

[Charles_Freck]

Hi. So, I'm an 18 year old guy from Norway, and I've known about lucid dreaming for about a year or so. I've been doing RCs on and off for a while, but recently, after discovering this site, I decided to really go out of my way to learn this. So I've started a dream journal, and already after a week I've noticed my dream recall becoming much better. I've tried WILDing once or twice, plus a WBTB, but so far no success. So, yeah. That's me. Wish me luck?

Welcome to dreamviews Charles If you have any questions just ask us or go check out the tutorial section. It seems that you are off to a good start. Keeping a dream journal is by far the most important thing to lucid dreaming (well it is for me). I have one tip for you too, its that you have to know that lucid dreaming is easy, this makes it a lot easier. Good luck

Thanks, guys. Already checked out the tutorial section, and it seems like there's a lot of good tips in there. And I'll try to think positive thoughts (does this sound like a self-help class, or what?). One thing though: I was writing down my dreams from last night earlier today, and suddenly three old dreams popped into my head (like a year old or so), that I don't think I've ever remembered for more than an hour, if that, before. Is this a normal side effect of better dream recall? As in, it works retroactively as well? 'Cause that felt sort of great.

[Jdeadevil]

I guess so, yes.

WILD is by far the hardest induction technique, you should probably have a few regular lucid dreams first. DILDs are the easiest, but DEILDs are nice too. Every so often I have recall months or even years later, it's nothing out of the ordinary.
