Can movies effect your WILD experience?

Quest for Lucidity General Lucidness
1

Hey all! I’m new to this site, but certainly not new to lucid dreaming. I have never actually had any lucid dreams yet:( sigh

But anyways, I am extremely interested in WILD. I have tried it once but failed after the HI came on. Anyways, I was a little curious. Let’s say you watch a movie during the day and had it in your head the whole day and have seen this movie multiple times. During attempting to WILD, is it possible this movie can effect your HI and such? Like hearing quotes from the movie or seeing the characters? I have always wondered this and thought it would be really cool if it’s true. :happy:

It would be awesome if you can reply back! :smile: Thanks! :wiske: :thumbs:

well sure, HI and dreams consist of things that are on your mind, so whatever happens to you during the day can pop up

i dont know i would think so, but movies seem to affect my NDs very often. Maybe its because they are fresh in your head and that is a very recent subject in your mind

Thanks for your help! I’m just trying to stay near good HI, and not the bad kind like the whole: demon, old hag thing hahaXD

Welcome Lucidpony123, :grin:

What ever you think about will definitely affect your HI and WILD experiences. It’s possible to train yourself to not think about stuff other than only what you want to focus on, then what you watch won’t matter too much.

On a side not; did you know that most people would dream in black and white in the 50’s! (hmm, does television have anything to do with that?!)
