Hello, I'm new to this forum, this is my first post. I've tried multiple induction techniques for Lucid Dreams and I can't seem to do it, let alone remember ANY of my dreams. So where do you all think I should start? Any tips or pointers would be of great help.
Hi Allen,
I've tried all the classic induction techniques but none of them have ever worked for me either. What does work for me is just classic mindfullness - just being here and now instead of being lost in my thoughts all day. I use my breathing to keep me anchored in the 'here and now' - just be aware of your breathing and whenever you realise that your back lost in your thoughts, go back to the breathing. Eventually you'll find yourself being aware of your breathing in a dream and once this happens you'll realise your dreaming but become 'conscious'. Maybe you could try that? Lucid dreaming aside, mindfulness is also just an excellent way of living a relatively stress-free and joyful life anyway, well worth a try :)
Hey guys :D Welcome to Dream Views! I recommend you learn to recall your dreams every night before you start Lucid Dreaming. There is really no point doing Lucid Dreaming methods if you wont remember you had one anyway :P Luckily, it is easy to learn to remember your dreams. Keep a notebook next to your bed every night. Make sure you get 8 hours of sleep each night and wake up and go to sleep at the same. Then, when you wake up each morning, write down ANYTHING you remember from the night before. Even if al you remember is a feeling, write it down. In no time, you will remember your dreams :D
Yep, like Barbizzle said, just keep trying to record your dreams, and they will come to you. You have to convince your stubborn brain that you want to remember them. Try some autosuggestion before bed, such as, "I will wake after every dream and write it down in my dream journal."
If you're not doing it already, make it your goal to wake up multiple times throughout the night. That should give you a chance to record your dreams while they are fresh in your memory.
