Hello there,
my first post and i hope you can read it because my english isn´t so good.
I am dreaming lucid for about 6 month.
So I have a new technique that works best for me and maybe it can help some of you.
It was a night where I tried the WBTB technique. So I felt asleep and had short ND before I woke up again. I didn´t move and slowly I felt that I was in the zone ( no not basketball ) between waking and sleeping state where my thoughts so absolutely clear. Then I thought of writing my sub-conciousness a letter… sounds crazy I know. But then I began writing the letter in my thoughts like:
Dear Mrs. ( or Mr. ) Lucid Dream,
I haven´t seen you so many nights…I miss it to fly………………………………………
bla bla bla……………………………………………………………… I hope we will see us soon.
And in the same night I had 3 totally vivid lucid dreams. In the whole month before I had 5 and now 3 in one night.
After I woke up I had to smile because who gets the idea of writing him-/herself a letter?
I tried it several times after that night and it works in over 50%. I think it’s the same as telling you “i´m dreaming” until you fell asleep but “the letter” is the funny version.
Maybe someone of you will try it and please let me know if it works.
And I have a question to you about how long you can stay lucid? In my LD´s it´s a few seconds to about 5 min. but I can´t get over it. I think it´s possible to stay lucid the whole REM-sleep period. Or comes the time with the experience?
Thank you for reading…and good dreaming
