Lucid Dreaming | Learning to dream. How to start?

Hello friends,

thank you for welcoming me, I'm new here and this is my first post. I'm really looking forward to share my experiences with you and learn from yours.
I've never had a lucid dream, but I'd love to have one. Since a few days I'm reading about it an also tried it, but yet without success.

Since I'm new, I have a few questions:
  • I have a really really deep sleep at night. I'm not lying when I say that I never wake up at night. Furthermore, I almost never remember my dreams, maybe one time a month or even less. Regarding to what I have read so far, this is counterproductive when it comes to lucid dreaming, right? So do you have some suggestions for me? I really think my main problem is that I'm not aware I'm in a dream and -even worse- that I don't remember them.

  • Choosing the right technique: Regarding to what i've read so far about WILD, DILD, WBTB and MILD in some of the torturials in this forum and also in "Mancon's guide to choosing a technique", I'm not quite sure what would be the right technique to me.
    Mancon says, WILD is great for you if you wake up randomly in the middle of the night. So this doesn't work for me.
    That's why I thought, DILD might be a great idea. But since I'm not aware in my dreams and I never remember them, this is also difficult.
    So I tried MILD because you prepare yourself while you're still awake. One time I really had a strange experience with it, but I think it was no lucid dream. I was really relaxed and repeating my mantra, when suddenly a crazy visualization came into my mind (something with some guys playing football with a huge watermelon). I tried focusing on this and not loosing it, but I made those RCs and noticed that I was definitely still awake. So I think it was just my awake imagination and not a dream.

  • Isn't it exhausting waking up at night many times and having such vivid dreams? I mean, do you feel rested after a night full of flying, traveling to other planets and so on?


Thank you very much for your help! I really appreciate it!
