Basically last night was a sham! I laid on my back with my eyes closed, not intending to fall sleep but to feel that dark shade cover your eyes when you know that you’re definitely falling a sleep. In lucid dreaming, you need to ignore all those signs and keep fully awake with your eyes shut! Pretty hard if you ask me, but with true honesty I did, I kept awake, waiting for some silly sign to pop up, but nothing happened. I did manage to fall asleep, checking the clock as I woke up at 1am, then waking up the second time it was 3am. I tried my best but the lucid dream thing didn’t work for me. I know practice makes perfect, but I’ve tried this many times and I just can’t seem to achieve. I hope tonight will be different. 

Going to try to lucid dream tonight. I have tried many times but never do I succeed. I’ve been reading what Sleep Paralysis means and why people have them, though I haven’t found a real reason why, because while searching online, many people have had this happen to them, even to have them in a row. But reading “How To Lucid Dream” mentions going into Sleep Paralysis, which I’m not to happy about. You have to lay on your back with your arms beside you, having your eyes closed but keeping awake. After 20-30 minutes you begin to feel pressure on your chest, which now means you’re in Sleep Paralysis, and when opening your eyes you start to hallucinate. I think then you are able to control your dream (though I’m not 100% sure about that part.) I’m going to try this tonight, see what happens, if I literally fall a sleep while my eyes are closed, which is easily done, or I’m just laying there.. waiting for something to appear/happen. I’ve always wanted something weird to happen in my dream, because they’re only dreams, nothing in your dreams can harm you. It’s all in the mind. I’ve had some nightmares, thinking running up to a safe spot would wake me up or save me, but when the creature catches up to me, then I’m basically dead meat, feeling a sharp pain just before I wake up. I can go on all night what I’ve dreamt about, but all I can say is, I enjoy dreaming, whether nightmares or whatever.
