Thread: Is this really real?

I guess your a skeptic. I always heard of people yelling out : Dream Guide appear and the dream guide should appear.

I hope to have my first lucid dream tonight. I would do it right now on the couch but my dad is playing video games... when he dies... He yells so loud...

Also I'm going to eat dream food... I heard it tastes good

Thats extremely common, I'm just the same.

Anyway, the first thing I would do, is get a head-start and read on Dream Stabilization, so that you can hang onto your first dream long enough to enjoy it. Most people get overly excited and wake themselves up due to the excitement. So read up on the methods to stabilize your dreams, so that once you get it, you'll keep it.

Afterwards, start with something rather easy... flying seems to be easy for me, but if you find you can't do that after your first couple attempts, find a Dream Character, and start telling them its a dream, thats always amusing to see their reactions.

I know to stabalize it... rub hands, spin, swim in water, look at the ground, and DON'T PANIC OR GET OVEREXCITED. (and remind that it's a dream)

I would look for my dream guide too

I've never tried looking for my dream guide, because whenever I go lucid I instantly forget (almost) anything I was thinking about during the day. It's like my memory goes out the window. However this thread has inspired me to look for my 'dream guide'. I think the only reason our 'dream guides' exist is because we believe they do. Who knows. If your mind can produce a fully sensory environment, with sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste, and even emotions; who knows what it's capable of. And to think we (apparently) only use 10% of our brains..

When you first become lucid its all in your mind, eating dream food will only taste like you want it to taste, for example if i ate a peice of bread and imagined it tasting like strawberries it would.
When you become Lucid the only restrictions is your own mind, you can do what you want.
