Thread: Hey guys, brand new to this

WELCOME TO DREAMVIEWS RED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey man, all your questions are fine. I'll just breeze over them really quickly, and you can just PM me if you need more help.

I would DEFINITELY start with a dream journal. That's where I started, and it improved my dream recall and frequency of lucid dreams immensely.

As far as having a mentor, we have an adoptions program here. You have to be here 2 weeks before you can be adopted. Until then, I would be more than happy to walk you through stuff here.

PM me anytime, ok?

Welcome to DV!

Yes, keep a dream journal and review it every couple of days and look for common things that occur often in your dreams. These are your dreamsigns. Whenever you are awake and you run across one of your dreamsigns or something that reminds you of on, ask yourself if you are dreaming and perform a reality check.

Good luck!

Thank you, i'll start my dream journal right away.

I think i'll try and keep my dream journal and thats all for the 2 weeks, and work solely on my dream recal skills. Then after the 2 weeks i'll look into the adoption program.

One more question, if you dont mind:
About how long do you have to keep a dream journal before you are good enough at remembering them to begin becoming lucid?

Thanks

That's different for everybody. I kept one for a week before I started having LDs. Then I regularly had 1 or 2 LDs a week. So I'm about average you could say. So try it for at least 2 weeks, then we'll see where you are, k Red?

Sweet Dreams!!!

I on the other hand took about 2 months, so don't feel bad if you don't get anywhere quickly, the reward is sooooooo sweet.

My me if you ever need any advice. And have a good time here.

Thanks you two, i'll start tomorrow. Now this leads me to another question (lol i wonder how long it will go on line this.. bear with me, eventually i'll get a clue )

My next question is: After i keep a dream journal, will i start becoming lucid automatically? What do i have to do to start becoming lucid? If i have to do anything; should i start doing it right away, even though i dont have good dream recall yet?

Thanks,

Welcome Red! (nice name )

Usually your confidence will do most of the work. Rereading your journal periodically helps too. Also, dream recall should be worked on to a certain degree...I'd say at least 1 dream a night. Generally you should start in whatever manner you like (within workable means), and take it from there. If your the type of person that likes gradually increase in achievement, that's fine too. Just take it at your own pace, and don't get discouraged!

Good luck!
