I started with 10 minute forceful zhine sessions, moved up to 15 minutes a few times, and just now I did a 15 minute session followed by a short break and another 10 minute session. My mind is fairly stable during these, mostly I'm trying to avoid jerking my eyes slightly and did much better this time. I was getting some fairly wild open-eyed HI by the end of the 15 minute session. Almost no blinking in the 15 minute session, but a lot during the following 10 minute one.

Had a short LD last night, got lucid but lot it pretty quickly. Tons of dreams, though, some moments remembered vividly. Need to refocus also on recall!
