It does? I was starting to think this was practically impossible! |

@ stalthdan remember that if you are trying to go to sleep and insomnia hits, then it counts as the amount of time you are trying, not the amount slept. I would recommend putting some time into learning what causes insomnia and what you will do to fight it. I found out quite a few things about how I can, but it is probably different for every case. Something that will enhance your life without even counting the LDing part. |

It seems that an odd amount of people around me are suffering from insomnia. With one person I recommended that they do some meditation, they said that helped a lot, and even if it doesn't help you still get a plus because you got in some meditation. What I'd recommend is some typical breathing meditation, just focus on your breathing, then from breathing meditation go into some visualization meditation. Try it and tell me if it helps. |

I'm back, and checking in with 4 lucids. |

Day 1 and I half-did my first task. |
|
Yep! I tried to make it attainable. I haven't gotten the allotted time in like 5 days (last night I got 7 though!), but I am trying! My wife needs a little help during the night for now. :/ |

Well, it certainly has been a while since I've last updated. I've gotten significantly better at DEILD chains, giving me 14(!) lucids in 13 days! Maybe I should start thinking about raising my goal, at this rate |

Hello folks, I hereby quit this summer challenge |
|
Well guys I've had nothing, I got this one zombie dream a few nights ago, but it wasn't lucid, and it wasn't like crazy fun, or really fun at all. I've had little success but that's only with semi-lucidity and almost WILDs. Even with that I am not disappointed, I see it as a chance to succeed in the future, and I may be giving up with using techniques for a while, you may be thinking "HOW WILL YOU GET LUCID WITHOUT TECHNIQUES!?!?" and my answer is "I just will." That may sound a little stupid but do you really NEED techniques to be aware. I mean it's just awareness, I don't think I need a technique to know that I'm alive, maybe some meditation to add to that awareness in-dream but still, I don't think meditation is a technique and I won't be using it to the point where it could be considered a technique. Tonight will be my first night, though I'm still contemplating using a mantra, I'll do some meditation about it. |

Back to updating: not much progress with challenges yesterday and the day before, but had a decent wild today after a super long insomniac WBTB. Also reporting one HI/dreamlet - some palm tree that looks as if it is being painted. There were more dreamlets but I forgot them... |

Goals: |

I can't believe I've been so inactive in this thread. But anyway, I'm gonna change that, here's my update: NOTHING. But that doesn't anger me or frustrate me or anything, for this I have all summer. I also started another challenge, it's a 30 day challenge to re-learn everything about lucidity the right way. Because most of the things I know now have been learned from DV and don't really help with consistent lucidity. Brandon tell me about your stability watch!! I know it's just an in-dream thing but I want to know. |

Well I just had this nap that was constantly on the line of trying to become lucid and waking up. It was the strangest yet, most productive nap so far, I got really uncomfortable and that's what made me get up. Next time I'll nap in the bed and not in the couch. |
