02_WBTB_Ritual

Day 2

I touched on this a while back in a seperate thread. I will provide a link to the old thread and a summary relevant to this workshop:

http://mortalmist.com/forum/index.php/topic,1229.0.html


Implement a WBTB ritual. There is no better natural way to prep the mind for lucid dreaming. The 45-60 minutes of wakeful time allows the brain to obtain a much more alert and logical state.

Furthermore, get in the habit of doing the same repetitive things during this ritual. For example, get up and retreive an item that only gets taken out during lucid dream attempts. Leave it somewhere meaningful. Maybe eat a small specific snack that becomes part of the routine, etc.

When you're ready to go back to sleep, review the conditional goals you have already set for yourself, per the tutorial in our first session. By performing the same ritualistic patterns over and over again and coupling this with conditional goal setting, you will train your mind to associate lucidity with these rituals and perhaps help incubate one of the scenarios you're looking for.

Wolvendeer and I are meeting in Chat for WBTB. The WBTB thread has been kinda neglected, I think this would be a good opportunity for those interested to try it out.

I know some of us are against using electronics during WBTB, and I understand. It's kind of tough using a computer whilst half asleep. :P

In any case, I don't mean to high jack this thread. Just a cheap advertisement; if anyone is interested feel free to PM me or post in the thread. Thanks for taking time out of your day for us Dr. T!

Yeah, that's also a problem. I'm used to it, so it doesn't really bother me much.
