hi im new, i have been trying to LD for a while and i have managed 2 kind of LDs, but im not sure. i could feel myself in the bed as i was dreaming and had a dim sense of the room around me but i was definately dreaming.also i could control what was going on. That was with the wbtb method. But the problem seems to stem from the fact that i dont really experience dreams as im having them, i can only remember them afterwards, so how can you perform reality checks without already being lucid? i dont understand. help please
It’ll come to you. I suggest doing WILD’s, they help you concentrate, that makes your SC to concentrate too, and you’ll know. I recommend WBTB also.
but still, how are you supposed to perform reality tests using MILD without already controlling you actions?
Im having these dreams now which im lucid but because the lack of visuals i can’t control them at all.
That was a LD - feeling you’re bed could be put down to two possibilities…
- You were almost awake
- You just dreamt you could feel your bed - when you really couldn’t.
About the RC thing - dreams are based off RL, no? So, fi you take RC’s in RL, then they may go through into your dreams.
Also, when you notice something odd, you go into what is called a ‘pre-lucid’ state. From here, you can conciously decide (almost as if you were lucid) what you’ll do - such as take RC’s.
In most of my LD’s I can feel my IRL body when I focus on it, feel myself breathing etc. Im positive also that im not dreaming it up, also I dont need to be near waking state for it.
