Did you try the tactile imagery steps I outlined? Funny I decide today is the day I'm gonna get back into DEILDing and there is the first reply to my thread in half a year.

Welcome back, LucidDreamGod. =)
Thank you Xel I've always been fooling around with WILD and such, with little luck. And well I think maybe through conditioning deild could also be a way of having lucids at similarly high rates at mastery, at least for me. I think it has to do with how well we can anchor ourselves into this response when waking up, when a dog hears the dinner bell it drools automatically as a response (for those of you who know of the anchoring principle, you've heard this analogy many times). I am curious if I can make it so the deild process is so natural to me when waking up that I don't have to really think about it anymore.
Ah, that's an interesting goal. Best of luck.
Yeah I always imagine either the feeling of getting out of bed or the feeling of sand under my feat and warmth while imagining a beach. Odd thing is I had a dream about being on an island that night but it wasn't lucid and didn't come from deilding I went through lying there with out any results and just fell back asleep after moving around and stuff and hours later I dreamt about it. Hmm I know i'm not going to give up on it but I don't know what I should change to get sucess when I follow the rules exactly....Quote:

you say think about e.g. flipping while you're trying to DEILD - my question is, if you find yourself on your bed in your dream, doesn't that defeat the purpose of imagining yourself performing tactile actions or moving about?
Just wondering if e.g. you'll find yourself somersalting in the last dream scene you had as opposed to waking up in your bed.
Maybe i should imagine touching my desk in my room?
Well if your already in the dream and you know your in a dream then yeah your good to go. But if your not sure the feeling of actual movement well you try to just imagine it will confirm your dreaming like an rc does.
You could imagine touching your desk, anything you like really.
I read this yesterday and tried it last night but i didnt even realize that i woke up then i moved and thats when i realized :(
1.Would this technique work as you woke up in the morning even if your not tired?
2.When you do the summer-sault, do you imagine yourself in bed then jumping out of bed or starting it out of bed and finishing out of bed?
Sorry if these dont make sense. :P And one more thing:
When i woke up i had a really dry mouth which felt uncomfortable would this affect the DEILD? :P
This is a very good guide. I just had a DEILD last night but I couldn't stabilize it. I will be sure to follow this guide and I'm sure that next time I'll be able to control the dream. :)
