I have been trying to induce a LD for the past month and a half. I do the WBTB method every night, coupled with MILD affirmations and WILD counting, and also RC’s by staring at my hands. I have absolutely no problem recalling my dreams in great detail after I wake up, but I am yet to become lucid in a dream. I have had a few recent dreams where I talk about Lucid Dreaming in the dreams! I even recently saw Stephen Laberge’s name written on a piece of paper - but still failed to realise I was dreaming!
Am I getting closer? Do you guys have any additional tips for me? All my dreams are very clear and easy to remember - its just that ‘spark’ to realise you are dreaming whichI find hard to achieve. Many thanks in advance!
You sound like you’re very close. Anytime you start thinking about LD’s it is a very good sign. You mentioned you do RC’s… how often and when? You really need to make sure you ask yourself if you’re dreaming at all times. It doesn’t matter if you’re 100% sure you’re awake, do an RC anyway.
Keep asking yourself where you are and what you’ve been doing for the last 5 minutes. Do it all the time, as often as you can possibly remember. Keep trying, keep checking your reality and keep LD’s at the front of your mind. And don’t get discouraged, you’ve made more progress in a month and a half than some people do in a year
Hi Rhewin - Thank you so much for your kind and helpful response! That is very encouraging to hear that I am making good progress.
Funnily enough, RC’s is probably the one thing I am not doing too consistantly. On your advice, I will step it up, because I think that really is the last obstacle for me to become Lucid - to have that eureka moment when you realise you’re dreaming.
