Well I was thinking last night before I went to bed about a way I could make a lucid dream come easier, like it was being jump-started and I didn’t have to put alot of effort into it. So I thought about making a mark on my body, somewhere noticable but not like a cut or anything. I thought that maybe if I put a large piece of tape on my forearm that while in dream land I might notice that the tape isn’t on my forearm and that I went to bed with it on, assuming it is a dream. Then come the RC etc… I didn’t get to try since it was so late and I didn’t feel like searching for tape…So can anyone tell me if this works or if they’ve tried it? I really wanna have one of these dreams lol. So many things I want to do in them!
I once wrote “IS THIS A DREAM?” on the palm of my hand, but I haven’t tried anything mor noticable.
Hmm yea I think that’d be good writing it on tape ![]()
I usually don’t notice things that are different on me. (except one in awhile i have six fingers…)I usually notice things in my environment or on people, like if I am being chased by a bloodthirsty butcher, I usually stop and notice and tell myself that I don’t know any bloodthirsty butchers. But I will definitely try this new technique, I think that the tape thing is a good idea, and I’ll post back the results.
you can just imagine that the tape is on your arm and say to your mind
“Mind, when I am dreaming, cause me to notice this anomaly and become lucid”
So, kind of integrate this technique into the MILD technique? Repeat while falling asleep “I will look for the tape on my arm” or whatever, and visualise yourself doing it until you doze off… I wonder if that’d work as effectively as regular MILD.
Interesting idea, but I don’t think I’d want to walk around with a piece of tape on my forum asking if this is a dream. Might scare people. 
well what if you go ask real people if you are in a dream?
pssst, is this a dream?
I think WBTB/MILD is easy. All you really need to do is go to sleep then wake up, then sleep again with the intention of having a lucid dream.
