Well, you can pretty much start with anything Techniques I personally like are the one discribed in this thread and All Day Awareness, but there is a lot of other stuff to try out too. The only thing that I do need to tell you is that when you try a technique, try it AT LEAST for two weeks. Techniques often take a while to take effect, and otherwise you might discard a technique that actually works great with you. And confidence ofcourse. You WILL succeed, it is only a matter of dedication and time. Good luck!

I have noticed the past few nights, since I have learned about this, It seems I have been waking up periodically during the night, and recognizing that I have been knowing that I was awake.

Huge succes last night, FIVE LD's! My stabilization was unsuccesful and they looked like a minecraft world with only the ground, but that can be worked on The technique works wonders!

Dude thats sweet! Minecraft is awesome. Once I am part of the forums for seven days, in my signature one of my goals will be to be in a minecraft world. I haven't had any chances these past couple days to try out this method, but I guess I need to work on my dream recall first... Then again, I only learned of this about four days ago.

Another thing I noticed. When I was really tired at 12:00 a.m. last night, once I fell asleep (I don't know how to say this) I didn't wake up. I know that you wake up periodically, but I don't know how to describe what it seems sleeping all the way through the night.

I had one recently! It was totally rad. I was just digging in some normal dirt and BAM! Suddenly there's blocks everywhere and I was on an island in the sky with blocky T-Rexes!

On another note, nice tute Yuppie- I'm working on MILD and COBRA at the moment, but I'll try and work this if I manage to wake up from a lucid prepared for it.

Hey guys! Sorrry I haven't been able to post, I was on holidays at sydney, It was great!
Thanks for your help spy guy!
I'm still obviously happy to post and answer questions! Or feel free to PM me
Great work spyman! Was that using DEILD?

One morning, I was dreaming fully unconsciously, I went into a classroom, lied on a desk, and immediately, my eyes closed and I couldn't move (in the dream). I think I was able to feel my bed (not sure). I remember feeling the difficulty in moving. I was still not aware I was dreaming. I thought I was awake, but then I woke up.

Another morning, I had another dream like this, but instead in a bed room. I could feel the bed, when I tried to move, I was unable. I even tried to shout. I was not to do that either. I then woke up. I know that I was dreaming, and I was not just normally awake and in paralysis (what normally happens), because in this dream, I slept with my head at the "top" part of the bed, and when I woke up (or got out of paralysis), my head was at the "bottom" part of the bed. It only seemed real.

Can anyone explain this?

I don't really understand what you're saying?
You were in a dream, and you couldn't move? It just sounds like a weird dream we all get...
You weren't in paralysis, you were just dreaming.
So if the following is what you are trying to say: You dreamt you were in sleep paralysis, but you weren't aware you were dreaming, because you thought it was real life..
And then you woke up for real. What were you wondering about? Alot of us have dreams like that, it's no big deal.

Yuppie, this is terrific. I've had a hard time remembering not to move when I awake (often I start moving before I realize I'm awake), so I'm going to put your tutorial to use -- tonight. I'll let you know how it goes. Many thanks!

Cheers! Please do let me know how it goes! All the best luck, and don't give up if you don't get there the first time
It may take a few trys!

Last night was successful for me! I repeated the mantra "I will be aware when I awake" and "I will know when I awake" over in my head, and thought about what it means. The trick was that I had to think about it, not just repeat the words over and over . I woke up multiple times throughout the night, and was aware.

One time I even woke up, but with my eyes closed, and I wasn't moving so I tried your DEILD method. I didn't really have a dream to go off of though because I didn't remember what my dream was before. I have been working on my dream journal though, and currently remember about two dreams a night. I am not disappointed though because that mantra worked for me, and now I will start moving towards waking up still and with my eyes closed, and after that a successful LD.

Thanks for this!

Sounds good
Thanks!

Woah! So I was just checking this thread for updates and totally remembered that last night I successfully woke a couple of times without opening my eyes! I might even have had a false awakening without realising now that I think about it...

Definitely going to keep this one at the forefront!

Don't stop your other techniuqes, youe spend more time on the previous ones, give them at least a month before you dump them. I hate to say this, because I'd prefer people using my techniuqe, but you have to try a method properly first, switching around every few days gets you no where.

Was kind of busy in the past week. Not a lot of sleep, so not as much alert wakeups, but now it's time to get owning As for the 5 LD's earlier: I always have a hard time telling which method was the effective one, but it happened shortly after starting with DEILD, so it's sure to be a big part of the succes.

are'nt DEILD's and WILD's very similar? and what uf you wake up and move but then you remember and go back?

It is still possible to DEILD after you've realized you're awake, it's just a bit harder. The second the realization comes back, lie still, let your mind drift and experience the dream. I could say 'visualize it', but that isn't really the trick I think, really feel it rather than imagining the sensation

1. Yes, DEILD is an easier (or at least less time consuming) variation of WILD.
2. What? Like you forget at first, and then realise?
3. You stole my picture!

sorry i am a wolf obsessor and i meant if i was trying to DEILD but i woke up and opened my eyes or got up but then realized, would it still work if i went back into position?

i think they are pretty too short not much story line but still LD is LD

Durability of lucids doesn't have anything to do with the technique used to attain it, it has something to do with it's stability

I try with rubbing my hands and try to focus on hands but without results ... but practice make masters

I successfully chained 8 LD's this morning! It was really, really awesome. First time I've ever done anything like that. Each one was more stable than the last as well.

Heya guys, I've been a bit busy lately- sorry for the delayed reply.
The story behind that post was that I woke up at 8:30am and took a Galantamine pill then went back to sleep about 40 minutes later.
I'm not sure if the pill was the final decider in going lucid, but whatever the case shortly into my first dream I realised I was dreaming and almost immediately felt myself waking. In that sense, they were Lucid DEILD'; I knew I was about to wake up, prepared myself and lay still.

So while I'm afraid I can't shed too much light on how to initiate the first one, being aware of this technique gave me the greatest lucid dream I've ever had.
