I set my alarm to wake after 6 hours of sleep to do the wake back to sleep technique becuase I haven't been having many LD's lately (which for me is only a few in a week) and I have about a 90% chance of having one using this technique. I'm working on catching myself falling to sleep and waking back up and each time I do this I let myself drift a little more before I wake up. I read this technique last night on this site.
Anyways to the purpose of this post lol
After doing the wake back to sleep I am in a dream where I'm sitting on a little swinging chair in the front yard of my best friends house of when I was a kid. I stand up and feel like I'm dreaming. I see a very attractive lady in the yard next to this and begin to walk over to her and decide I better do a reality check to make sure I'm dreaming though once I question whether I'm dreaming or not in a dream I can normally feel it's a dream. I fly into the air and this confirms I'm dreaming. Instead of going over to the girl (I've been working on having less sex in LD's and more conversation or meditation) I decide to go up to a plant and smell, touch, and focus on it but start losing the rest of the dreamscape because I'm focusing too much on the plant so I open my focus back to everything else. I've been working with feel and smell of things in my dreams plus pain. The other day in an LD I walked on sharp rocks to see if it would hurt and sure enough it did. I decide to check the mail and While I'm doing this my friends mom comes out and asks what I'm doing...
Well I know that I've become lucid while sitting on this swinging chair before so after checking my dream journal I see that I've actually become lucid from this swinging chair on 4 different occasions and in each one there's nothing weird that happens to make me lucid I just think that I may be dreaming. Plus I'm always by myself in the yard. One of these turned into the LD I posted somewhere on this site in which I flew but more like teleported to a land of broken castles.
for a little background: From the ages of 8-12 I used to play with my best friend here everyday it seemed. He had a paper route so I would sit on the swinging chair sometimes waiting for him to get done so we could play. I have alot of good memories from this house.
