Hi!
As I said in my post in the Introduction Zone, my main problem until now has been lack of consistency and changing techniques too frequently. That is now going to drastically change!
For 1 YEAR I'm going to concentrate on this personal Mnemonic Induced Lucid Dream (MILD) version I feel very much drawn to. Even if I initially fail to see results, I'm going to keep working on it without giving up, until I master the art of becoming lucid in dreams.
Daytime
- Presence/Self-Awareness practice with Hands trigger:
The goal is to eventually mantain permanent self-awareness. In order to achieve this, I'll use my Hands as a trigger to "wake up" when I'll inevitably come back to a non-lucid mindset: whenever I notice my hands during the day I'll come back to a lucid/self-aware mindset and try to mantain it for as long as possible. That will also train my Prospective Memory.
- MILD mantra, repeated occasionally throughout the day: "When I see my Hands, I remember that I'm dreaming."
Before Bed
- "Awareness watching Awareness" Meditation
This will reinforce the effects of my daytime Self-Awareness practice.
- MILD mantra coupled with Visualization of myself watching my hands and exploring a dream setting.
Awakenings
- Whenever I wake up (naturally during the night or with a 5 seconds alarm I put after 6 hours of sleep), I'll attempt to Keep Still and vividly Imagine my Hands (clapping or rubbing them).
- If I don't manage to enter directly the dream, I'll just reinforce the same MILD intention and get back to sleep.
- After my actual wake up alarm (usually after 7 hours), I'll recall any dreams I had writing them down in my Dream Journal (detailed for LDs and only key words for Non-LDs).
That's basically it! I'll consider myself consistent if I can mantain everyday the basic routine Self-Awareness+MILD, while trying to implement all of the steps most of the nights.
Every tip or critique is very welcome, I thank you in advance, but for 1 year I will not change the basic structure of it.
