go to sleep. 5. Before going to bed, think about a recurring dream that you have or a particular waking fantasy. Use the same recurring dream/waking fantasy in your training every night. Relive the dream/fantasy, experiencing the sights, sounds, and feelings. Play it from beginning to end in your head, keeping the events the same. 6. While lying in bed, focus on the dot for one minute then ask yourself if you are dreaming.You know you are not. Visualize yourself in your recurring or fantasy dream. This time, see yourself remembering to look for the dot and asking yourself if you are dreaming. Imagine that you decide you must be dreaming because you have been in this situation before or you notice an unrealistic element to the scene. Imagine yourself using this knowledge to change the dream in a specific way. Do this in the same way every time you complete this training exercise. 7. Go to sleep. 8. As soon as you awake, try to lie still for several minutes without opening your eyes if possible. Try to recall any dreams that you had. If you remember any additional dreams during the day, add them to your data. 9. Follow the instructions for entering your data in the Dream Diary. 10. Restart at step 1.
Dream Diary. The Dream Diary was a typed worksheet designed to allow the participant to record the following data in a chart for five consecutive days: amount of time slept, whether or not the training was followed before the sleep period, the number of non-lucid dreams recalled, the number of lucid dreams recalled, and any additional comments the participants wished to provide. Instructions on how to properly fill out each section were included along with definitions of non-lucid and lucid dreams.
