This is how I have been practicing MILD this week:
*during the day, I have a LD goal prepared and feel excited about it
*I take a peaceful walk right before going to sleep, and imagine my surroundings as a lucid dream
*I go to bed early, usually somewhere around 9 PM
*I decide to wake up at every REM stage, and note down key points of the dreams I had - usually I have about 2 or 3 micro-awakenings every night
*I fall back to sleep again, sometimes while repeating a mantra of some sort
This actually seems to work really well for me, I became lucid once last week and twice this week - but is it something that I should keep up with?
Also, does it matter that all my LD’s start out in my bed?
Because I do seem to get lucid dreams quite easily nowadays if I really strive for it, but they all start out as False Awakenings for some reason.
Basically, I have a bunch of vivid ND’s, then I suddenly seem to wake up and realize it’s another one of those FA’s.
