Thread: Probably The Best Way To LD

You do a RC every time you drink and then don't drink about 6 hours before you go to sleep (so you dream while you're thirsty), you will probably get a dream about drinking something and then fail the RC

Don't be lazy! RC every time you drink!
On my last dream i was dreaming about waking up and going to the kitchen in the middle of the night to drink something so i thought "like i don't know i'm in the f**king reality now" and didn't RC .

It's a clever idea, but labeling it "The Best Way" is a bit too much, isn't it?
Either way, even though I sometimes wake up thirsty, I'm pretty sure I've almost NEVER dreamed about drinking.

EDIT: Also, dehydration is bad mmkay

Yeah I'd probably rather be hydrated and healthy than not have LDs.

Interesting idea. For me, it seems that every time I'm thirsty in a regular dream, I find something to drink. The only problem is, no matter how much I drink in the dream, I remain thirsty. When I wake up, lo and behold, I'm really thirsty. So for me .. this technique might come in handy. At least I'll know that the next time I'm thirsty and take a drink, maybe I can do a RC as well then bingo .. back to Dream~World. I will research this. Logically it seems like a surefire way (for me at least) to go lucid. Of course, like bushi said, I too would rather not go to bed thirsty. The technique would be good on special occasions though when I have to absolutely, positively get to Dream~World ™

This isn't the best way to ld..

ya i dont think ill try that i dont like dehydration

I highly doubt that not drinking anything for six hours or so before you sleep is going to affect your health in a negative fashion.

Maybe if you eat some peanut butter and crackers along with a spoonful of salt before you go to bed, that might make the 'xPerience even better.

I agree with Pojmaster. it sounds like a good idea, but It's definitely not going to be the best way to lucid dream. I can almost guarantee I wouldn't dream about getting something to drink because I usually don't dream about anything directly relevant to what was going on that day. But that's just me. My point is, everyone dreams differently so although it sounds like a good idea, nothing's fool proof or will work for everyone, therefore can't be labeled as the best
