Thread: Knot 'n' String Thing - (LD practice technique)

I started doing this today, screwed up a knot an found it was WAY to fiddly to try and undo it lol so instead Im using a lock with 3 digits (wrote 'am i dreaming?" and "reality check' on it, so instead just pulling that out an upping the number by one whenever I think about it/reality check etc. SIMILAR but yeah!

Yo, who told you to go movin' my thread?

It's not research or science - it's a technique for others to try to attain lucidity. I'll leave a redirect in here if it still seems a bit vague as to where it should live.

Might be helpful to use a cut rubber band instead of a thread. Then if you find yourself knotting more than you anticipated, you can stretch it.

Yah, try whatever counter method you feel most comfortable with. Originally, I thought about starting out with a strip of paper, then cutting slits all around it's edge where you would pull off a tab for every RC. But, that would a) leave you with something to discard, b) was a bit too delicate to keep shoved in a pocket or something.

Ideally, a simple click counter (like the ones an umpire in baseball uses to count strikes and balls) would work best. But then again, might be too simple to use in a dream. The method needs to be a bit challenging to perform if you were in a dream, else you would simply keep on counting while you're dreaming and never realize it!

The DV research guidelines...

Do you see any charts, graphs, data, or lab rats in my post? I'm simply sharing an idea based on a concept of training one's mind to have a particular thought during the day. Members may chose to try it at their own discretion with no requirement to be part of a 'team'.

Nonetheless, I'll leave the thread itself here, with a perm redirect in Attaining.

hi! interesting technique!
you can count the number of knots you are doing too! so, if you found that the number of knots it's different...you are dreaming
