LD induction CD and how it merged with my dreams

I went to bed normally and slept like 6 hours, I woke up and put on the headphones of my mp3 player with an mp3 I downloaded that induces LDs. It kinda goes like "I am aware that I'm in a dream" then "I am aware that I'm dreaming" then "You will remember to check your reality and identify that you are in a dream" repeatedly with a male voice with a lot of echoe. (I downloaded it from ld4all.com)

I dreamt of this weird place that was a perfect combination between an indoor fun park and a casino. I was with the DC version of one of my best friends and we were at a black jack table. I started messing around with this card-spitting system the table had, that was very interesting.

Suddenly I got bored and decided to go somewhere else. The place shifted into what looked like a supermarcket not too far away from my house. Suddenly a guy from school walks past me and he says in english "Aware" with echoe (he himself reproduced the echoe). I looked at him real funny and thought: "Well thats weird... why would he talk about awareness? and why in english?" (I live in Chile where we talk spanish, so its not normal for ppl to talk in english in my dreams)

I walked past him, puzzled with what happened and entered a store that was outside the supermarcket. I starting asking myself why he would talk about awareness and decided that it didnt matter, that it was more important that I tried to just be aware, it was good advice anyway. I said "ok, awareness... where am I?" I looked around and thought the place was kinda weird, kinda dreamlike so I decided to do an RC. I have a good friend at school and we always remind each other of doing RCs, so, since I wanted to RC I thought it would be a good idea to remind him to do one too. I looked around and saw him but he was kinda far away and he wasn't looking at me so I just thought I would RC alone and I could remind him later. Right when I was pinching my nose to see if I could breath through it, my alarm clock woke me up! Right when I was on the verge of lucidity!

Anyway, after I woke up I started thinking about the dream and wondered why that guy said that and suddenly it all came to me. The mp3! Thats why it had echoe and why it was in english! That way I realized that those mp3s do work and that its funny how what happens in reality merges with your dreams, lol

So, I guess I recommend them, cuz it did seem to work out for me anyway. Im gonna continue experimenting with it and I'll keep you all updated :wink:

Oh man, frustrating! so close!
I've had sounds coming from my bedside radio enter my dreams before, it's always interesting how the dreaming mind incorporates external sensory info.


¿Como se dice "lucid dreaming" en español?
(I'm trying to learn some Spanish)

Al LD se le dice "sueño lúcido" y lucid dreaming se diría "ensoñación lúcida" :wink: también conocida como ensoñación conciente

That's pretty cool. My friends can't seem to be able to lucid dream, maybe I should just talk to them about lucid dreaming when they're asleep. The only problem is that my one friend always seems to be partially awake while he's asleep, like when you say his name, even when he's in deep sleep, he'll say, "What?" and just keep sleeping. It's really weird. And the other friend I'd try it on usually goes to sleep after I do, so that'd be tough with him as well...
