Hiiii everyone !
As my username says, Im jellamartin, but you can just call me jella :smile: . I've experienced LDs in the last year, but it seemed like a really low level.
I suddenly came accross something while I searched on google about lucid dreams,
and you have no idea how interested I was into getting one again.
I used to be getting multiple dreams of shopping LDs, but i figured that its stopped now.
I joined this site to meet other people who have experienced the same,
and to learn more about getting LD’s
last night, I think i made WILD. I had SP , HI and REM but my mind went
pretty astray and I blinked, making sure whether my eyes were closed or not–
which to me, was a pretty bad idea. Maybe I was getting closer? I hope so.
Anyway I’m hoping to be able to achieve getting better at having LD’s with this sites help(:
The topics have been super duper helpful.
/me takes a moment to throw a pineapple at ebil shrimp for trying to recruit more members for the darkside
hello jellamartin, welcome to the LD4all community
it’s possible to make low level LDs better by using commands such as “Increase Lucidity” etc, also stabilising techs work well too … rubbing your hands together and taking a moment to anchor yourself into the dream instead of rushing off to do things
Are you using WILD with WBTB? since WBTB will really increase your chance of experiencing a long LD If you feel really tired when waking at night … FILD is a good tech to use and is a variation of WILD. You can find descriptions and links to all the known LDing techs in the knowledgebase forum
Finally feel free to begin a DJ in our dream journal forum and if you remember your first LD, we have a sticky topic for the first LDs of all members in the same forum
As Moogle said, if you rub your hands or some other activity that engages your dream-body senses you can increase the dream’s vividness.
PS: The Animal Clan is another fun way to enjoy the forum, if I might advertise. (There are Dark SiDe members there too, ebil shrimp. Don’t hurt me!!!)
HEHE i like pineapples XD i guess the dark side doesnt sound so bad xD
well when I get LDs, its actually like pre-lucid or incredibly low.
The dream I had involved eating a Big Mac, and for some miraculous
reason I wanted to loose weight so I decided to eat one, but after that snapping back to the flow of the dream.
And when I rub my hands, should I do that if I’m trying to perform an LD
or while I’m in an LD? Because if in an LD, I can only control myself if I wanted
to do something to one of my surroundings, such as the Big Mac XD.
Nope I didn`t use WBTB, I figured I would get too lazy to get up.
(Actually no, I’m just trying my best not to be afraid of the dark )
By the way, is FILD the same as FLD?(sorry, I’m very specific >.<)
And yes, as soon as I get my first LD, I will be sure to post it there !
I’m just gonna keep trying for now on with different techniques,
and find out what works for me-- I am very, very desperate
once you become aware that you are dreaming, you should have control of your actions … so rubbing your hands is simple. If you are a disembodied observer then commands would work best.
FILD (previously known as HILD): Finger Induced Lucid Dream (in Pathways to Lucidity)
MILD/WILD related, instead of focusing on HI, move your fingers while getting back to sleep. link to topic and part 2 and the current part
bobulator & jella!!
This is definitely a good place to share your lucid dreaming experiences and to learn how to do them. FILD is an excellent technique for beginners since it’s so easy to do, you might even get lucid on your first try!
thanks miles !
by the way, do you think it`s a good idea
to start off with doing a MILD first , such as writing
“i will be awake in my dream tonight” or something, 50 times,
then later when I get to bed, doing a FILD ?
Or should I just do one first ?
That would increase your chances of lucidity. But if you do FILD too then it wouldn’t make much sense to be writing all of that down when all that happens in FILD is being transfered into a dream. I would say do one or the other, but not both. Do FILD + WBTB.
Hello everyone, I joined here a while back and forgot I had joined. I think this is my first post. I’ve had lucid dreams as far back as I can remember and started having them on purpose some time in the 80’s. I’m going to go have a look around the forums and see what interesting discussions are going right now.
welcome to LD4all
/me hopes you don’t forget us again
I think you would probably like the lucid adventures forum, we run a different official quest every month … this month it is read the book of your Life
Please post in the Sticky: what is the 1st dream you remember? Part II topic … we also have a first lucid dream collection in the DJ forum if you can remember the first time you became lucid
Finally … moogle spams the 30 years or older topic
I hope you enjoy your time here
Hahah! Hello, I’m new… my mate directed me here after we got all excited about lucid dreams at school. =P We had nothing else to talk about…
Anyway, it seemed interesting, so I read about it last week, and amazingly that night I had my first of 3 in the space of a week! =D The first wasn’t that great, but the most recent went well, still can’t make things transform yet though. =/
Yeah, so, that’s enough about me… hello people! =]
Neptune!!
Always a good thing to have a friend also interested in lucid dreams than one that makes fun of you for practicing it. Congrats on your three LDs too!
