ask yourself if you are dreaming 10-20 seconds after ppl start talking to you |

Hey! I'm new to lucid dreaming! So I need an answer to a question I have! I'm having a hard time including reality checks to my daily routines! Do you guys have any tips? I need something solid. The "do-a-reality-check-everytime-you-walk-through-a-doorway" trick doesn't work... I'm a forgetfull guy! xD |

TAKE DV members advice with caution! some have had zero or 1-2 LD's yet act like gurus
TOTAL LD's (almost all DILD/MILD) =160!!
new goals: have more LD's than Shift[X]
10-15min LD [ X] Article: A day in the life of an LD-er
the "Mind V.S. Body" Induction technique
Everyman 2 LD's/ sleep schedule progress
I'd suggest doing a reality check whenever you feel like it (such as "oh, I havn't done a reality check in a while", and then you do one) or whenever something strange or out of the ordinary happens (such as "is that man really talking into a sparkly pink phone?"). Hope this helps! |
|
set a reminder in your fone dude and jus try and do them as much as you can and aftera a while you get used to it more |
|
First off, try to RC every 10-15 minutes. If you find that hard, make a suitable timeframe for yourself. Try to look at a clock every so often, and notice how long it has been since you last reality checked. |
|
Write RC on your hand every day and RC when you see it and especially when you think about it without having seen it. |
|
Ok, guys! Thank you! I'll try these! But one mroe question, how often is it really needed to do a RC's per day? |
|
In all actuality, you could probably become lucid with very little to none at all. Granted, it would take more time, but it can certainly be done. I've done it...twice. |
|
If you want a reality check you can do without being conspicuous try to move things with your mind or put your hand through a solid object. |
|
RC as much as you need to to become lucid. What does that mean? Well, it depends on you and your life right now. So, if I were you I would aim for as high of a frequency as possible just to get it on your mind, and then when you're able to remember, I'd do it until it works and you have a concept of how much you have to do it. As Mario pointed out, DILDs are especially about awareness. On the one hand, you want to be aware of yourself, your behaviors, your emotions, your thought-processes, your unconscious behaviors, why you do what you do. You also want to be aware of your environment. Sometimes, raising awareness is sufficient to allow you to become lucid. You'll see something strange and it will suddenly -click- that you are dreaming. No doubt, you'll simply laugh at yourself for not realizing it earlier. |
|
What you have to do is you need to be in the frame of mind (always) that you could possibly be dreaming. Do not just assume you are awake. Instead, assume you are dreaming in the first place, so, the things running in your head all the time should be "I think I am dreaming, It is very possible that I am dreaming. Let me check just to be sure" then if the RC shows you are awake, then just go with it. Just say to yourself, "ok, I'll check later, you never know". And repeat that over and over the whole day, every day. |

Place notes around your room, in front of the computer etc. Also wouldn't be a bad idea to place pictures of your dreams signs about. If you're out of the house a lot, get either a watch that beeps every hour or write something on your hand to remind you to RC. |
|
Haha! It's funny, I did some of the things you wrote, and I acctualy had a LD this night! I remember doing an RC, and the finger went right through my palm! Did som flying and stuff, my first intentional LD! |

I'm not sure why I can't find it on his threads anymore, but Banhurt made a pretty neat pop-up reality check program. I've got it on my computer but as he's not hosting it I won't pass it on unless he says it's ok. Would be worth PMing him to ask. Both his programs (RC/DJ) are fantastic. |
|
Well, I'll be honest with you, I don't really like the DJ program. But I know I would if I was to get used to it. |

I RC every time I see a Pontiac. |
|
LDs: 0
Recalls: 6
I found a program for you! http://bytered.com/software-realitycheck.html |
|
Thanks for the tips! But if I had enough money for an Iphone, I could just as easily buy a Nova Dreamer. But I'll keep it in mind incase I ever get myself an Iphone. |
|
The program is great, the only problem is that I really don't use my computer that much...! |
