Ready for Round 3

[Supurstamin]

I have tried over the past few years too keep a dream journal, and practice lucid dreaming techniques. Twice, actually, and rather unsuccessfully. So I thought I'd try again. Going for a WILD tonight, and I think I'll eat some bananas and cheese before I sleep for the B6 content. I guess I'll start a DJ up again tomorrow morning. It seemed I'd had a few LDs since my last attempt(December of last year), but thinking back it's almost like I had the illusion of awareness, and no control. Does this happen to you guys? Aside from that, this is an "I'm back!" post. Any tips would be appreciated.

Try deep relaxation techniques (slow breathing, progressive muscle relaxation) and at a certain point during the sleep onset process visualize the last dream, lucid or otherwise, that you can recall. Bananas and cheese are alright but knowing how your brain 'dreams' is information you can use. Good luck to you!

I decided not to go for WILD as it's my first night back. I had 0 dream recall, but this is most definitely due to my inconstant sleep schedule. Things will get better once school starts back.
