I’m looking for some help. My dream recall and overall dream quality plummeted out of nowhere back in May. Looking at my chart https://imgur.com/a/mLKyMIP you can see I was on a major upswing nearly four months of great quality dreams but it’s been a struggle ever since May.
I did everything I was supposed to do: reality checks, dream journal, WBTB, daily meditation, mantras, etc. But the quality started diminishing to the point where I tried different things each time.
In May, I tried taking a break and then came back to the techniques, but that didn’t deliver any results. Somewhere in July, I tried some schema changing so I wouldn’t have any subconscious beliefs blocking my ability to lucid dream, and that didn’t work either. My last attempt was the best of those three: I started using a mantra that goes like, “I don’t give a ■■■■ about lucid dreaming, dreams come to me naturally.” It was going well for a few weeks, but then it started to disappear just like before.
