Thread: Tony's Workbook

Hi Tony,

I was catching up on your posts and noticed some dreams with seemingly heightened awareness and memory when a few additional aids might have pushed you over the threshold into lucidity:

WBTB is good for heightened awareness as I am sure you know and regular RC's. It sounded like you got rid of the alarm reminders which I agree are a crutch. Are you able to get a good number of RC's in without the alarm? It took me a while using truly random alarms before I was able to do fairly frequent RC's without the reminder. If I am slacking I still go back to it and I like to change up the alarm sound to something I'm not used to and something that sounds a little dreamy.

My most common RC lately is really thinking "wow, any moment could be a dream" (I can sometimes become fascinated by some aspect of my surroundings and start thinking about what I would do if dreaming, look at my hands a few times + maybe another RC). It is always great to follow up with "The next time I am dreaming I will (RC) and realize I am dreaming!"

Edit: Regarding one dream forgotten while writing down the first one. You might want to try writing down a few key words if not one sentence summaries for each dream before writing out the whole dreams so that you retain as many dreams as you want to.
