Thread: New to lucid dreaming, SP scared, recall ability

I do, however I have only written down one dream in it so far. I also have a physical dream journal with about 50 dreams in it, but haven't written anything in that for months. I should be more active.

You can write down some keywords with pen and paper if you want. Ideally you don't move and you don't open yours eyes yet when you try to recall your dream. You could also go through the dream in your head, then get up and type it in the computer.

Yeah that's what I'll be trying to do
I've already written down a dream from last monday in it

I'm also new to this. I've known about actual lucid dreaming for a while, but haven't bothered to try it out until recently because a sudden burst of interest.

I'm not sure if it means anything, but when I found out that dream recall was a necessary skill, I've been able to recall at least one dream a night, without even caring or trying. Any tips to help remembering and focusing in your dreams? I've read the main articles, but I want some more in-depth help on how to do this.

Thanks!

as for I know, it's just practicing and practicing, and it's also a very common thing to "instruct" your brain into remembering your dream.

I know how you feel, I used to be scared shitless about SP, but then I tried it, and it really isn't that bad. While I haven't completed a WILD completely, all I felt was a few vibrations, I heard a few noises, wasn't sure about whether or not they were real, and I was completely numb. It's actually pretty fascinating, and it can be very exciting! Anyways, good luck with your Lucid Dreams!
