Thanks for all who is to read and help me throughout this and takin your time.
I have pretty good dream recall, and recently since i’ve been trying more, and reading more of LD, im having at least 5 dreams per a night that i can remember. everytime i wake up and go back to sleep theres a new dream, and when i wake up i remmeber the other one and drift back to sleep o.O? What can I do about this o.O
Your post is a bit confusing. You say you remember your dreams and they make you sleep?
I’m not quite sure I understand either…
ha no. Let me clearify it really quick. When I sleep throughout the night, I at least wake 3 times. So each time I wake up, i wake up from a different dream. But I can never induce them. Sorry for the confusion =/
Ooooh I see. You can dream several times and have a good recall but you can’t LD? that’s what you mean by “induce”? Try using different techniques for LDing 
Since you wake up a lot, you could try using WBTB
er… that seems to be the problem with most people
Try using the technique where you visualise the dream you just woke from, but imagine that you become lucid this time and that you carry out your lucid dream action. Repeat that technique over and over until you fall asleep - it’s a good one if you already wake up several times in the night, and I have had many lucid dreams this way.
Thanks. I’ve been trying that technique for the past couple of days, but I’ll keep going until it works. =]. Thanks. I’ll keep you guy supdated of how im doing.
My first controlled lucid dream was induced after waking up from a normal dream. I saw my dog in the dream, but this is 100% impossible in real life because she died a few months back. So as I fell back asleep, I did some MILD–I vividly imagined myself seeing her again and realizing that this had to be a dream. I fell asleep after a while and had another dream with her in it. In the dream, I suddenly realized that it might be a good idea to do a reality check. I couldn’t push one hand through the other, and I couldn’t breathe through a plugged nose. But when I tried the nose RC a second time, I could breathe. Bam! Instant lucidity.
Moral of the story: if you have no trouble waking up after dreams, you’ve already got a big advantage over some people. (Myself included, for the last week or so. 
) After each dream, relive it carefully and imagine yourself suddenly thinking Hey, this must be a dream! Get into it as much as you can, and maybe try doing the same thing with other dreams you’ve had. You are keeping a dream journal…right?
Hey, you don’t happen to live in California, do you? Sorry, random question, I know.
I try to. But than I just keep snoozing the alarm clock and than i have no time and i gotta get ready n bounce to school. ha, and no i dont’ live in cali, im in the complete opposite. But I’ll give it a try. YOu think you can give me a little more detail of re living it? Just think of it again, and re play the events that just occured right? But in addition, just add a reality check?
When your already awake from your last dream and its fresh in your memory, try returning to bed with thinking about it a lot. You’ll be drifting in sleep quite easely and if you add a RC or just by knowing your dreaming (And its quite easy if its 2 times you do the same dream…) and you’l become lucid easely.
While you’re in bed with the lights off, try to imagine being back in the dream as clearly as possible. Examine things around you closely, feel the wind in your hair, smell the food cooking, whatever. Just try to totally immerse yourself in the memory. Then imagine yourself seeing something out of the ordinary–preferably something you saw in the dream–and thinking Hey, this could be a dream! Then do a reality check (in your imagination, not in real life) such as plugging your nose and seeing if you can breathe. Imagine the feeling of breathing through your tightly shut nostrils (or pushing one hand through the other, or the time changing, or whatever RC you decide on). Then think to yourself Yes, this is a dream! and imagine yourself taking control of the dream. Fly around, do whatever. Exercise your imagination.
This is all done while you’re still in that gray area between being awake and being asleep. Keep your eyes closed and try to totally relax. The whole envisioning-yourself-within-the-dream thing is basically MILD. It’s effective. Just let yourself doze off while your conscious brain replays various dreams and each time, imagine noticing something that couldn’t happen in real life and confirming that it is a dream via a reality check.
Good luck!
thanks guys. I’ll try it again tonight. The problem I have is I can’t stay having consciousness. I just drift to sleep than wake and remmeber the dream i just had =/. I always had a thought if this technique would work. What if you just slept and just kept conscious throughout until you just fell asleep consciously?? But the con would be, what if you can’t sleep at all? hrmm…
Falling asleep while your brain is still conscious is the basic principle of WILD–a technique I’ve read a lot about, but never really seriously attempted. Especially if you fall asleep easily, you can try it. This site and others offer information on it.
However, remember that this isn’t a necessary technique. LaBerge was able to have lucid dreams at will using the MILD technique he developed, and in the few weeks that I’ve been interested in LDs, I’ve already had some success with it.
I see. Hrmm, I don’t think i follow any specific techniques but I combine all of them to one and try them when I sleep at night, but lately I haven’t been getting anything. Just remembering regular dreams when I wake up throughout the night. I dont’ even feel the lightness that you feel when you know your body your mind is leaving your body =/ Im just tired of not getting any progress at all, but I would like to share my expierences to someone that is at the smae place where I am you know?
You mean you’re frustrated at lack of progress? Then there’s plenty of people here to sympathise with you 
You LDing at all? Well today after school track and some basketball, I came straight home with the intention of trying to get some progress and I did. I set the alarm to wake me up in 30 just to see how far I can get in 30 minutes. I was doin the WILD and I am pretty sure I got somewhere. After all that losing bit by bit consciousness, I opened my eye lids just to peak, and I saw my school laptop in front of my eyes with the backround and such, but I closed out of that because I said tomyself I was gonna try to LD. rgr… than in a little the alarm rang, and I realized what I have done =/. Did I get anywhere?
i do that all the tiem with WILD, it gets really annoying apparrently it shows that your mind is straying and it shouldnt. if you are counting for a long time you start to stray alot…just keep at it!
