Thread: **CrazyInSane's WILD tutorial!!**

For people who are on Macs, theres a nice application that you can use for the custom alarm. Its called Apimac Timer (http://www.apimac.com/timer) and its basically an alarm clock that rings once (or twice, or up to 5 times, check in options).

Im gonna try this method this morning. I set Apimac Timer to ring as "Purr" 4 times. That seems to be the best option. The purrs are about 1 sec apart and are a soft but distinctive sound. Should work fine.

Awesome guide, looking very much forward to trying this. I will prolly have no difficulties what so ever in not moving. Im a natural sleeper

Thumbs up, thanks for the great idea

So I tried to do this, I went to sleep at 10:30pm, and I set my alarm at 3am. I woke up and I kinda panicked and opened my eyes and sat up. But then I just laid down and went into Sleep Paralysis.

I did not recall ANY dreams today

I am happy to report a lucid dream induced by this technique



My tips, learned over the last 3 nights of trying this technique-

1) Use multiple times to set off the alarm. I had three times keyed in last night, and only the final alarm (4:30am) induced a lucid dream post-sleep-paralysis.

2) Familiarize yourself with the sound of your alarm.

I used this- "I will wake up, keep my eyes closed, lay still, and enter a lucid dream when I hear this sound" - and would then play the alarm noise I used.

3) Make sure you alarm is not too loud, or too obnoxious. I used the sound of a cat meowing to wake me up the first two nights, but every time I heard it I would think it was my cat and it'd wake me up way too much.



Unfortunately I got very excited and fell out of it extremely quickly, so I'm not counting it as an LD worthy of putting in my sig or adding to my official count. But I am a VERY new LDer so you'd expect my lucids to be fleeting in the first place.


Good luck!

Congratulations, Dpsbob!! So happy to hear our first official success with this method! Hopefully this encourages others who are struggling to keep trying.

The tips you mention are excellent. It is definitely best not to have the alarm be too loud or obnoxious, usually that will instinctively make you wake up and move. It also definitely helps to set the alarm at multiple times through the night, though some alarm applications may not cover that feature. Are you using the Easy MP3 Alarm Clock?

Yessir I am!

Same mp3 file you hosted as well.

That program's great, to get multiple times all you have to do is run multiple instances of the clock, each set to its own time.

I'm sure you knew that already though
