Hello,

I am new here. I have been doing DILD and keeping a dream journal for two weeks now. While I am yet to have a lucid dream, my dream recall has been improving steadily.I am now usually able to recall one dream and a few small details of a second dream per night.

Currently my practice involves performing a reality check whenever I notice a certain colour (I pick a random colour for the day). I do this because I was otherwise having issues remembering to reality check and now I remember to reality check all the time. Beyond this, as I fall asleep I ask myself to notice certain colours within my dreams, which seems to be working since I previously could not remember anything having colour in my dreams and now I remember the colour of a couple of objects per night. This has increased the detail of my dream recall.

If anyone has any advice or criticism of this practice please let me know. I should note that I have aphantasia so any practice involving visualization is not possible for me.

Cheers,
Shingles
