[QUOTE=Sarge_Maximus2;1533131]Ok sounds like what I do but without the berrybuzz. I set the alarm for 5 am, then a calendar alarm for 7 but they both make the same noise. Are you saying the app will let me change the alert noises for different alarms?[/QUOTE]

Yeah

**Sarge_Maximus2** · 09-13-2010 08:11 PM

Sweet! Thanksa, I'll get it now and I'll let you know if I need any more help.
EDIT: I can't find the app on the rogers store and when I download it elsewhere it doesn't work.

**Erii** · 09-13-2010 09:55 PM

no

I didn't get the chance, the dream was blurry and kept fading in and out...but I'm still happy I did that

I've had 4 false awakenings, one was lucid but I fell back into a dream, one was a lucid dream, this one i had last night and the other was a short LD

Ok my biggest problem now is staying awake in my head. I've done this multiple times when I've woken for my alarm but while I am awake in m y head and try to focus on my SP, I always wake up later. I need help with this area most. Plus I don't understand why it was so easy before and seems to be getting harder.

**NrElAx** · 09-15-2010 08:57 PM

About alarms. If you have a blackberry phone, I just set my alarm for the time i want to be woken up and then i put my phone on auto on/off for that same time. so say i want to wake up at 6am. I just set alarm for 6am and put the phone on auto off for 6 am. I use a reminder ringtone thats like 2 seconds long and i make it beep twice and when it does my phone just turns off. But you can only use this if you dont have to get up at a certain time. I tried it last night but i woke up about 4 times before my alarm went off. I guess i get too excited.

**NrElAx** · 09-16-2010 07:10 PM

Now my problem the last two nights trying this is that I wake up before my alarm goes off and then im screwed. And after that I can't fall abck to sleep for an hour. Anyone have a solution for me to not waking up before my alarm. I usually do that anyways if im going to work or school. I was thinking maybe I can try some auto suggestion

**mikeac** · 09-17-2010 12:13 AM

Set the alarm earlier...? Maybe by 30 minutes?

Im probably going to just go to bed earlier and maybe get up earlier like you said. That way it will still be darker in my room. Hopefully I get some results tonight, any results is fine with me. I've only gone through sp once and heard so many voices out of my door but I focused to much on the voices and woke up. I didnt find it scary at all. hopefully all goes well tonight

**Sarge_Maximus2** · 09-19-2010 04:27 PM

Hey can anyone tell me the best way to remain aware without falling asleep? I've done this method successfully before but now it seems like I cvan't anymore and the biggest problem is me falling asleep when I try. Any suggestions?

just try to focus on how great the lucid dream will be, but that you HAVE to stay awake for it to happen

Yeah thanks, I figured today that if I keep meditating (I've moved so my schedule and relaxation was affected significantly) and focusing on the dreaming, it should work better. I've also begun my dream journal and posted the two I had as my first ones. I figure I should update it every day and I'm also realizing that it's gonna be hard work but I might as well because I hate losing time due to mindless sleep.

**NrElAx** · 09-20-2010 10:50 PM

Can anyone explain how they would perform the "actors" technique. Should I just be doing it before I go to bed and what should I be telling myself.

Is that the one where you pretend to be a great lucid dreamer? Basically you just ACT. You pretend you're a world-class lucid dreamer, whose never failed. You have to literally live the part and believe it completely. You just expect to have a lucid dream because you know it will work. I personally would think that telling yourself these things would give away the secret. You're better off (imho) to just believe it and feel it to be true, that way there's no doubt in your mind because of the knowledge of your intentions that would be given away if you kept telling yourself you were that good. After all, if you really ARE that good, you don't need to tell yourself, right?

**Romansp** · 09-21-2010 01:58 AM

Okay, here's an interesting problem I have with this technique: I can't stay asleep long enough.

I'll set my alarm to wake me up at 5:30am, yet I always seem to wake up 10mins-1hr before the alarm goes off...

Does anyone have any ideas on how I can stay asleep until my alarm goes off (Preferably without loosing sleep, although i am willing to lose a few hours if necessary)?

Also, I remember 1 scene during which I stayed completely still and motionless. After a few seconds, clear red neon text began flashing through my vision (which I assumed to be HI). Problem with this is that my memory of it is fuzzy and blurred, plus I have no memory of how I awoke or of anything after the text, so I'm not sure if it was a failed CAN-WILD, DEILD or just a normal dream.

PS: First post ever, happy to be here on Dreamviews!

**NrElAx** · 09-21-2010 02:23 AM

I did the same thing Romansp. For 5 days straight of trying it I woke up before my alarm and then couldn't fall back to sleep. The closet I got was I woke an like an hour before my alarm, fell asleep woke from my alarm and didn't move an inch and nothing happened. I've given up since because it was ruining my sleep. I'm just going to try and have some more DILDs before trying. Sorry I couldn't help

**Sarge_Maximus2** · 09-21-2010 03:09 AM

Maybe you guys are too excited? I've also heard that if you try getting less sleep the night before the night you try it, it might help your body be more sleepy. I'm new to this too so I can't offer much more help. Good luck tho!

Yea I think at first I got excited because I got close to a DEILD before trying this. But I failed

I had the same kind of thing this morning. The alarm repeted because I accidentally messed with it the night before, so I had to physically get up and turn it off, at which point I realised I needed to use the bathroom. I got back to bed and tried to WILD but all I got was the numb feeling, but didn't "drop" into SP. I got to a point where everything started to vibrate like an earthquake or something but I went up instead of down and went back to my numb state. I hope to remedy this soon and gain more control.

**Cosmix** · 09-21-2010 07:59 PM

So the past couple nights I've been waking up like 15 - 30 minutes before my alarm making for a failed night. I think ill set my alarm an hour earlier 3am and see how that goes.

3am!? When do you go to sleep?

**Cosmix** · 09-21-2010 08:21 PM

Usually around 11, I have to get up at 530 every morning though.

**NrElAx** · 09-21-2010 08:22 PM

So since I've been waking up before my alarm everytime I've tried this, I decided to set my alarm ealier in the day and then kind of forget about it at night. So last night when it went off, I woke up from the alarm not before it. I didn't attempt to wild at all because I just wanted to test to see if that methid works. Luckely I never have to set my alarm again because it stays on everyday.

Hope that works for ya then, let us know!

**NrElAx** · 09-21-2010 10:57 PM

Im hoping it will work again tonight. Im pretty sure it should work again because when I set my alarm before bed my mind kind of sets its own alarm to wake me up. So as long as I dont remind myself to much about waking up from my alarm I should be good. I just need to play my alarm tone a lot so that when ever i hear it I will train myself not to move. I'll update tomarrow.
