Sleep Deprivation and LD Practice
I've tried for a week now, roughly, to practice lucid dreaming waking up at three different times during the night. Three things happen, none of which are very useful. One, I sleep through the alarm suppose to wake me up; two, I wake up in the morning with my alarm switched off, not remembering the time during the night I woke up and turned it off; or three, I wake up during the night and have no memory of my dream or am too "dead" to get up and write it down. Worse of all, out of all of these scenarios I always feel tired most of the day the next day.
Anyone have any tips? Can you LD'ers consistently wake up throughout the night and maintain a waking life too? Does your body get used to it over time?
