Thread: Amazing Workbook

Hi I am amazing. I am a 22 year old male from the Netherlands. I have dabbled in lucid dreaming since 2008 but never really gave it a real effort since March 2012. I've had a few WILDs the past weeks and I had one DILD a few years ago.

Record my dreams on a voice recorder and write them out during the day. I usually get 1-4 dreams recorded. I try to get at least 8 hours of sleep at night. Some nights I take Choline and B5 before sleep. I need to start doing more awareness and RC's.

I want to increase my DILD count from 0 to at least once a week for now.

I feel my focus is weak. Can't seem to keep my attention on one thing long enough. My inner voice seems to be weak too. It's like its too deep in the mix of all thoughts, like its ing drowned out by random scenarios and images. I need to work on focus and volume of my concious inner dialogue.

Welcome to the workshop, amazing

Your recall seems to be good. Here is a small guide for RCs+awareness, and other stuff, if you want to check it out. Why you taking choline? Happy dreams

Finally had my first DILD this night!

I was participating in a martial arts class in a dojo I used to go to. A childhood friend I haven't seen in years appears and it becomes known that he is leading the class today (he has martial arts experience so that's not too strange). He starts guiding us through warming up and does to by throwing really sloppy, weak, punches. I copy but am not impressed. I start looking around and notice the room is a lot bigger than I remember. Some staff members are removing big plastic curtains to reveal the room to be huge! At this point I become lucid and decide to bail on the class and just jump up real high through the room. At some point I start flying to the ceiling and grab in between the ceiling plates. The plates are made of balsa wood and are colored dark brown or yellow. I notice the extreme detail in which I can see things. I try to climb into the room above the ceiling plates but struggle and fall down. During my fall I assure myself I can't be hurt, I calm down and start flying again. When I try get to the room above again I struggle again and decide to take a different approach. I tell myself the floor of the room below me is only feet away instead of dozens of feet. I let go and step onto the floor below me.

Then I want to fight someone and know the person I want to fight is coming around the corner. A fat Chinese man with a stern look on his face appears and before I can punch him he walks into me knocking me to the floor. He ignores me and walks on, another fat Chinese person appears around the corner as I start to lose the dream. I wake up in my bed with sleep paralysis, the urge to move becomes so extreme I can't help but roll over and wake up.

Why did the Chinese person knock me down without fighting me? Why couldn't I climb through the ceiling plates?

Congrats on your DILD!

1. Not being able to do something (ceiling plates)
Eventhough we know it's a dream, sometimes we may have hard time doing things we know are impossible, like flying and going through solid objects. I might help, if you not only knew, but truly believed, that there are no laws of physics in your dreams. Even then, sometimes it doesn't help. It just may take some practice.

2. And sometimes DCs do strange things, as if they had mind of their own (and some of them probably do).

Happy dreams.
