At first I was thinking of writing detailed comment about techniques, but this sentence made me change my mind.Quote:

There is nothing like 'the easiest method'. You have to be motivated to have a lucid dream, work on your dream recall, start doing reality checks etc.
The easiest method for one person might be an impossible method for another, it really comes down to you deciding which one suites you best.
You will not learn how to become lucid from scratch in one post, Mogo; it simply does not work that way.
That said, given the brief summary of your needs, it looks like you should start by trying to become lucid through DILD, perhaps starting with MILD as your technique. I would link you to a DILD tutorial in the DVA forum, but you're not interested in that. So I hope you'll check it out on your own, and come eventually to understand that you won't learn to become lucid from the information in a single post on a website.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that there is no easiest method; the method you use is one of choice, personal needs, and timing; not of quality.
The easiest one is SSILD which works good for many people although suddenly it stops working for many of them too! Ha ha
WBTB + MILD seems like a pretty solid combo for most people.
alll i am looking for is someone who can write his own method
so far no one helped me :(
There are really only 2 "methods" (or WAYS is probably a better word here), and the rest basically fall under one or the other:
DILD - Dream Induced Lucid Dream
WILD - Wake Induced Lucid Dream
You either find a way to become lucid while already in a dream, or find a way to go from awake to immediately in a lucid dream once you fall asleep. There are many approaches to both. Reading about them and combining other members' experiences with your own is the best way to "write your own way" as it were. I know you don't want links, but you should really read about the basic lucid dreaming methods in the Start Here section. That's why we have it :)
We all have our own methods. We worked them out after reading pretty much every tutorial known to man. Then I listened to advice of experienced LDers and newbies to start with a DILD/MILD. I tried and realized that some things will work for me and some will not. So as I practiced, I adjusted my method. I still keep adjusting it, because LDing is a work of art, rather than strict steps to follow for everybody the same way.Quote:

Nobody is gonna retype their "method" and define what every acronym means just so you don't have to look them up. There are tons of tutorials and methods here, so try reading them first and then asking questions.Quote:

It's personally varianted stuff
So if one person can get easily lucid dreams from one technique then there's chance that other people won't or they will likely struggle with it.
That's why people rather offer you link to few guides than write down their techniques.
Those guides or tutorials were wrotten mostly in that way so they could work for most people.
Example WILD Guide Written For All:
1. WBTB (Wake up 3 - 8 hours after falling asleep, you need to figure out your perfect timing)
2. Get Up (Get up or don't get up. This will more than likely help you stay conscious, from no time to 50 minutes of staying away from bed till trying wild)
3. Relax (Just get in comfortable position in which you sleep)
4. Wait till transition, and if you will regain consciousness then more than likely lucid dream will succeed
That was example guide written for all
And here will go example personal guide:
1. Wake up after 8.5 hours of sleep
2. Stay awake for 15 minutes
3. Get back to bed
4. Sleep on back
5. Wait till sensing vibrations and when they happpen visualize dream scene to enter it
That was example personal guide
And it is more likely to fail than previous one
Since some people won't be able to sleep longer than 7 - 8 hours
And some might be unable to fall asleep on back or be uncomfortable
That's the example difference
Since we all lived and experienced different stuff the lucid dreaming wil work different for us.
If lucid dreaming learning would be as simple as learning mathematical patterns and then using them then there wouldn't be so many tutorials and different approaches
There would be small amount of them and there would be probably one technique that is most effective and would be used by all
- Hopefully i've helped you understand stuff :yeah
I think we do help you, a lot actually.Quote:

Browse the crap out of this forum. Not only will you soak up a lot of information if you can filter the experienced from the inexperienced posters and weigh their advice proportionally (there is a ton of misinformation around here), but just BEING on DreamViews all day may give you what you need to LD. I had over 72 posts per day at my peak, and I was lucid dreaming several times nightly just because I was thinking about it all day from being on here so much.
For me, and many others, successful LDing is dependent on your motivation and exposure, rather than any complicated techniques. (Though RCs and general awareness are still helpful ;) )
