Misc Notes:

• Good to do at the start of the night while a lot of other techniques are better during WBTB.

To add:

• Lucid dreaming doesn't lose you rest, dreaming mostly happens in REM which doesn't rest your body anyways

The basics guide isn't of a good enough quality, it needs the following improvements:

• Better organize some of the articles so techniques are more easily understandable in steps. The MILD article specifically really needs this.
• Add a section on definitions and the basics of the DILD/WILD difference
• Add a section on that lucid dreaming mainly comes from the expectation that you will be lucid dreaming, and that most things in lucid dreaming work through expectation. As well, add a note on that eventually this can become self-fueling.

This should be part of The Basics

Misc Notes:

• Recall waking day before sleep helps

Misc notes:

• Transfer senses by energy flow
• Visualize body parts disappearing
• Imagine your body changing and your senses along with them
• Discuss difference between imagining yourself somewhere else or different in the same location
• Figure out and detail what "time dissociation" is
• Clarify the difference between dissociate disorders and dissociation meditation

Corrections:

• Excitement doesn't wake you up, it's just easier to get aware at the end of a dream, and people early on who get lucid then get really excited, resulting in the idea that excitement wakes you up.

Not sure yet if this should be part of The Basics or not, most likely not.

Misc Notes:

• Preventing need to swallow uncomfortableness
  • Tongue on top of mouth
  • Brushing teeth right before WILD
  • You're actually allowed to swallow dummy
• Awareness comes in waves
  • Naturally those waves come too slow to WILD generally
  • You should steer them yourself, in a rough period of time of roughly 10 seconds, aware, zone out, then be aware again
