Thread: Hi everybody!

Hi, after seeing someone talk about lucid dreaming on another forum I got curious so I done a bit of research and all I can say is... Wow... Just... Wow.

I have actually had a few lucid dreams recently without knowing it, I was on the edge of a cliff and I dropped, and I was fully aware, but I was all shocked (coz I was on the edge of a cliff about to fall) so I woke up but I was all sweaty and I actually had a physical feeling in my feet they where on a cliff edge when I woke up and I jumped up in my bed. It happened a few times so I suppose thats how I became aware, and I could have done things like this loads of times but not remembered, I guess.

Anyway, this stuff is all amazing and I am gonna learn it!

Hi! Welcome to DV. My friened just bought a used DeLorean last year. They are very cool cars.

Cool!

They certainly are, I am saving for one ATM!

Hey, welcome to DV Falling from a cliff sounds scary! Once you've done more research, you'll know how to control those dreams and wake up with a smile instead of a pounding heart

Make sure to check out these threads to give yourself a good introduction.

And if you have any questions at all, just ask

Thanks!

The tutorial database and archive will make for good reading!

I am gonna try FILD tonight, probably wont get anywhere but practice makes perfect!

Oh yea, the tutorials are great I personally think that if you are new, you shouldn't try to WILD for a while. But seeing as you've had a couple of lucids before, go for it!!

Just make sure you read this before doing FILD http://www.dreamviews.com/community/...ad.php?t=64325

Is this known to work well?

It's still a fairly new technique, but it worked pretty good. Try it out. Actually had my longest LD yet from it.

I dunno, I'm pretty skeptical of it. It's basically a VILD, and you confirm the fact that you've been successful by actually materializing things and then grabbing them with your dream hands... I don't like focusing too much on my own body in lucids, as that tends to make me think of my real body and wake up

I tried the Quick Grab thing earlier today a few hours after I woke up coz I read you are still in the REM cycle but I couldnt do it.

I think its because: 1) I may have left it to late 2) there was too much light 3) I was thinking about it too much so I couldnt relax properly.

You are supposed to sleep for 4-6 hours, then try it right after waking up.. Waiting for hours after waking up will not work.

Welcome to the boards btw

Yeah, it said you need to have to be in REM cycles and I read somewhere else your REM cycles last a long time after you wake up and someone managed to have a lucid dream in school, thats the only reason I tried... The funny thing is, it almost worked! I felt like I was wobbling around, like I was in a boat, and I had wave patterns in my head (think PS3 background)!

Thanks!
