How do you train yourself to wake up after each dream? And do people normally wake up after every dream every night? because I can't remember waking up after a dream even once. If you can train yourself, that seems like a surefire way.

WOW this is an amazing technique! But here's the thing, for me, the alarm noise he recommends is way to "jolting" and I find myself flinging out of my sheets when it goes off. Does any one have a more..relaxing tone for this method?

Hmm well I've been able to get vibrations well WILDing the normal way so I'm thinking of trying this to see if I can get stronger vibrations to take me to dreamland. Problem is when I try normal WILD I think I wake myself up too much and get frustrated going to sleep if I fail. I'm going to attempt this method 6 hours after going to sleep, and my original WILD 8 hours after so I can just wake up for good if I can't get back to sleep.

The problem for me though is I don't have an ipod or iphone and I just don't want to leave my laptop on all night. So I'm going to try a variation by leaving my phone alarm right by my bedside and very quickly flicking it off. I have heard that idea from someone else a few years back and they said it worked for them, or maybe someone else in this thread has suggested it but I'm too lazy to read it over .

Another problem I noticed is I often wake up 10-20 minutes before my alarm goes off, that is a pain in the neck, though I'll try to WILD then anyway, or perhaps DEILD if I can react fast enough.

LucidDreamGod, if you move at all it will ruin this process, so quickly turning your alarm off will not work for this method.

This clock works really well for multiple alarms. No installation, too.
I created an mp3 that repeats the alarm 15 times, and set the repetition of played file to none.

Hey! I tried this technique tonight because 1º-I cant relax long enough to enter SP 2º- You dont have to wake up in the middle of the night and 3º I found a solution to have a 3-4 sec alarm on my PSP xD (just had to add 1 hour of silence to its alarm lol!).

But I wasnt succesfull because I put the alarm to 8.00 AM and I woke up at 6 30 because my window wasnt very closed so it woke me pretty much :S the good thing is that I had my longest lucid dream! (DILD xD) But Im kinda sad that when I woke up from it, it was 07.58 :'( I will try this again tonight but I will put the alarm to beep at 07.30 and I will post here the results. Stay well

Hey rynkar3, I agree with you that this tone is very startling. In an earlier post on this thread I replied to something like this, and here's what I said:

"I didn't like that sound either, so I went onto a sound effects website called freesound.org and found a sound effect of wind chimes:
http://www.freesound.org/samplesViewSingle.php?id=22346

I find this much more calming to wake up to. You could use this sound or search for other sound effects"

Thanks a bunch wes

No results today :S Went to sleep at 01.00 AM (couldnt go earlier) and I put the alarm to beep at 7.30 fearing that I would wake up again at 8.00 but I woke up at 10.00 xD. It beeped, woke me up, I stayed still for a minute and nothing... The beep isnt the same which its post but it's still strartling... Which could be the problem? Was it the beep which its a bit startling but I didnt move (could it awake me more than a relaxing tone?)? Or was the time I sleeeped (6.30 hours until the alarm)? Im gonna continue to try this method, but I really want to know if the tone is startling, can awake me more and ruin my can-wild?

oh my god I laughed pretty hard at that. It is really startling, and I usually jump out of bed as fast as I can when I use an alarm, which might be a problem because I might not remember I have this.

I don't regularly sleep at any specific time, and I wake up at different times, so I don't really know when I'm gonna wake up. 2 days ago I went to sleep at 1am, and woke up at noon, and last night I went to sleep at 2am and woke up at 10:45

i tried this today took a nap and the alarm scared the shit outta me. i dont think i gotta enough sleep and that alarm really startled me so ima try tonite when i have more time...

Hey guys, this is actually my first post on the boards here, been lurking for a while.

I have tried this tech seven times, with no success. But im sure that is because of a few factors which can be corrected:
1>either the alarm jolts the crap out of me and i instinctively reach to turn it off or
2>the alarm never wakes me up

as a solution to part 1 and 2 of this i have created a file of my own, which can be found here:
MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service

its an MP3 synth riff that fades in and out for 10 seconds, followed by a minute or so of silence. i am using Alarm Klock for Android on my phone and tweaking the fade in and out times, with the alarm set to time out for a minute.

another variable is manipulating the time the alarm goes off. if it goes off too early in my cycle, im in deeper sleep and don't hear it. if it goes off too close to time to go to work, my mind urges me to go ahead and get up and get the day moving.

i have also began to "practice" with the alarm, having it go off throughout the day and next to my bed, while visualizing keeping still, quieting the conditioned desire to "reach for the alarm", entering the dream, and then looking at my hands saying "i am dreaming, i am dreaming." i have read of similar practice for OOBer's trying to "awaken without moving." this whole skillset would be valuable to have in general as it can be the springboard for many techniques and dream recall.

First off, Thanks for this incredible guide!

Last night I set my phone to receive a text message - hoping that it would wake me up.
At 5:00 last night, I tried this for the first time, and it worked. I successfully woke up and didn't move an inch or open my eyes.
The problem is, I didn't know what to do from there :O

I felt SP - it was really heavy - and tried focusing on my breathing. I also tried observing any HH, but there were none.
Any tips on how to make the transition into a lucid dream from here?

You probably need to try at a different time, so sleep for maybe one more hour and a half.

Hi all, I'm Sarge_Maximus2. First of let me say a big THANK YOU to crazyinsane for this technique. It really is just what I was looking for as I have been researching about lucid dremas for almost 5 years on this very site. Lol. Anyhow, using this technique I have become Lucid (I Think) the last two nights, which are the first two nights I tried. But I need some expert opinions to let me know if I was truly being lucid or not and how better to remain in the dream. I hope you don't mind long posts

Ok, so the first one was two nights ago and I attempted it as soon as I read this tutorial. I downloaded the sound and alarm clock, set it, and went to bed. Unfortunately, I was SO excited, that I couldn't get to sleep for the longest time. I'd finally fall asleep then hjave a long, vivid dream (non-lucid) and then wake up. Get a drink, go back to bed, unable to sleep, then finally get to sleep, and have another vivid non-lucid dream, wake up etc, for about three of these cycles. However, in the final one, I was having a dream and decided to look at my clock as I've trained myself to do, and lo and behold, it wasn't consistent! So I thought "Aha! This is a dream!" so I immediately started rubbing my hands together and examining them and things got ultra-real. So I decided to examine the mechanics of my dreaming mind, how things behaved, etc. I remember feeling completely aware, I remember checking the mirror to see what I looked like and I looked the same and was kinda dissapointed but the image was slanted, also I'm 80% sure that I created things to see how that worked, basically this was a training exercise for me, and that's how I worked it. When things started to get blurry or dark, I'd rub my hands together again and continue exploring. I'd say I was in the dream for a perceivable hour.

When I awoke, the next day I had such a sensation of accomplishment, as though I'd actually done something with the time that I'd otherwise be wasting in sleep, and I pondered what I would do next.

So, for the first lucid(?) dream I was not able to use the clock, but I became lucid(?) because of how anticipant I was.

Anyhow, the next day at work I checked the clock constantly, did more reality checks, and thought of what I'd like to do next. Anyhow, I decided I'd like to learn summoning next, and so I picked Tricia Helfer as my subject. I theorized that if I was to summon her, as per this site's guidelines, it would need to be believable, so I theorized that using my phone (which is my "totem" if you will) to have her on speed dial would do it, that or going to a building that seemed like the kind she might be at.

So, I got home, read up on more techniques especially in controlling a dream, decided the passive way was best, and went to sleep. Well, AGAIN I was too excited to sleep and had much difficulty, but since I remained awake, I entered SP at one point, tried to sit up in it, but ended up waking myself up and recalling that someone had posted and said it's better not to because you risk waking up. Better to just enter the dream. However that is supposed to be done I thought. Anyhow, later, the alarm went off! And I heard it but faintly, and so I thought "this is it!" I was already in SP and was waiting, trying to remember what to do, when my body felt like the top half of it was being lifted. But no my physical body, more like a floating body, if you know what I mean. Anyhow, I thought I'd just let it happen, so I did, I got lifted up till my top-half was 90 degrees with the bed, then I shot up out of the room and entered the dream (which was my room lol) but I was standing in it.

Anyhow, I remembered how the day before I had been talking to my cousin about doors and if you could make some other destination appear when you open the door, to go to that is. So anyhow, I opened the door and it was just like the norm in my house and I got frusterated and slammed the door. Can't remember what happened next but eventually I got into a fancy restaurant and thought "this is where I'll find Tricia Helfer" and when approached by the hostess I said "Yes for two, but she may be here already" so I went into the dining room but found that she wasn't there. I thought this odd because I thought I was being quite cunning in my manipulations but I waited for a while and she still never showed up. So I thought "why don't I call her?" so I checked my phone, and sure enough she was on my speed dial, I called her and she said she wouldn't be able to make it. At that point I thought "I thought I was controlling this dream? Guess I'm not." but she said she'd meet me "somewhere" so anyhow, I ended up walking down the street when suddenly, from the sky, came a rocket ship, crashing into the ground like the canisters of weapons on Halo 3. The policeman opened it and freaked out. When I got there, I saw it was Tricia Helfer and I explained to the officer (to his confusion) that I knew her and it was fine. So we left, I asked her what took her so long, I forget what she said, but I pondered why she had come out of the sky rather than just be "around the corner" so to speak. Anyhow, we both navigated through the dream and there were some people after her for some reason but mostly I tried to get a handle on creating things. Again, I felt completely aware in this dream but found it odd that I was jumping from one location to the next.

Anyhow, that's it. So, were these lucid dreams or no? Also, any advice you could give would be appreciated, thanks.

I don't know if this is any use to anybody but my mobile is fine for waking me. I set the alarm to go off at 4, set the alarm sound to its lowest level and put some sticky tape over the speaker so I can't hear anything at all. The light of the mobile alarm starting wakes me up. I put snooze on to go off every 15 minutes in case I'm facing the wrong way when it goes off. I don't know if every mobile is suitable for this but I can let you know the model if you like (it was the cheapest one in the shop!)

If you were aware that you were dreaming, then those were Lucid! They sound awesome. What time do you go to bed and set the alarm for? I'm on a really messed up sleep schedule during the summer (going to bed at 12:00 and getting up around 9 or 10)

I'm so happy they were lucid that I'm getting even more excited now!! Thanks for confirming my hopes. I go to bed at 11 pm, set the one-time -alarm for 5 am, then have my real alarm on for 7 am when I have to get up for work.

I'll give this a go. I've already stayed up way too late to get enough REM tonight so i doubt I'll have any success yet, but I'll keep it up a couple of days in a row.

Yep they sound amazing. I bet you can get them even more clear and realistic if you keep doing it! Try rubbing your hands together in a dream (don't remember if you mentioned that in the post)

Yeah I did, and they were super real. But lately I havn't been able to enter SP. It's getting frusterating but I know I have to just keep trying. Any tips on how to induce WILDs more successfully or SP for that matter?

Hmm... thing is, i don't want to leave my laptop on all night. Wasting electricity and all that.

My phone setting goes off by itself, but only after 1 minute minimum. Is that ok or will it be too long?

Otherwise imma just have to hope my dad doesn't check i'm asleep...

If you have any kind of mp3 player, you can just add several hours of silence to the beginning of the custom alarm noise.

*sniffs* Unfortunatly my iPod ended up in the washing machine. It died...
