Thread: Newb experiences and questions, advice welcome..

Try the technique called FILD I have been recommending it to many poeple because it worked so well for me. It is basically the same thing as WILD look it up in the search bar. I always fell asleep trying to WILD but this one is basically the counter to that its like your mind throwing a jab and you perrying it if you know boxing. PM me and let me know how it goes and also if you have any other questions. Most important dont get frustrated and DONT GIVE UP! good luck!

Thanks for the advice, it's given me some ideas I think twice a week i'll try WBTB and otherwise i'll try FILD. I was planning on trying DEILD but perhaps as a beginner it's best to start with these two methods.

I was slightly dissapointed last night as I didnt wake aafter any of my dreams but not to worry I know i'm going to have to stick with it for a while before I get consistent results.

And i'll certainly be checking out others dream journals for inspiration

I've had almost all my lucid dreams from a MILD/auto-suggestion route.

Just started last month, so I've just worked on dream recall. Before I go to bed/anytime I wake up I just chant in my mind "I will realize it's a dream" and imagine myself realizing it.

And I've had 7 or 8 lucids in the past 2 weeks just randomly realizing I'm dreaming, not from any signs or RCs or anything.

Seems like a very good way for a beginner to start, but maybe I'm just lucky. It's not hard to do, so it wouldn't hurt to try. I'm going to put off WILDing until I'm very experienced, I've heard it's a hard thing to do and I don't want to get discouraged.
