LucidRaider

Hey people,

just wanted to share a lucid experience I had yesterday.

So, first thing, I was taking a midafternoon nap. I had gotten about 7 hours of sleep already, and went back to bed shortly after noon. After waking up briefly from the nap, I rolled over and attempted to use the affirmation technique to attain lucidity by repeating mentally "I am dreaming", however, I added a twist to the method in that I also tried to write the words "I am dreaming" in my mind's eye, or on the back of my eyelids if you will.

I could see the words take shape, and then suddenly I was looking at a picture of a tree, still repeating "I am dreaming". That's when I realized I was dreaming. A quick reality check confirmed my suspicion, and there I was. Dreamland. Awesome.

To summarize:

I used wbtb/ taking a nap,
I mentally repeated "I am dreaming" and also produced these same words in written form in my mind.
The images of the words led to dreamscape images.
I performed a reality check to confirm that I was dreaming.
Dreamland baby, dreamland.


Just wanted to share a tactic that worked for me,

Happy dreaming everyone.
