Hey everyone, I hope this question won't seem too basic. But I was wondering - why is it necessary to do the daytime practice for the Dreamwalker technique?
Here are some of my thoughts:
- I gathered that it is mostly a technique for WILD attempts (although of course, any WILD attempt does increase your DILD chances as well because you "think more" about lucid dreaming in general)
- for a WILD attempt, RCs seem to be a bit misleading since in my imagination, I often (involuntarily) see myself lying in bed or imagine an impossible or changing clock, although it is still just a visualisation)
- and yet, Daniel often mentions that the day time practice of doing RCs whenever you enter your chosen room is crucial.
Is there another reason for it (except maybe for helping you to visualise at night because you spent more time focussing on the room details)? In general, my imagination is quite vivid and looks a lot like reality. But maybe I got something about this method completely wrong.
Hope someone can help out!
i mist admit, I don’t do the daytime Dreamwalker practice anymore as the journey is cemented into my brain, I think that’s why you do it.
That might be - but it still seems like there is something else important about it, otherwise Daniel wouldn't have said that it won't work without the daytime practice, would he?
I thought it was just important to do in order to familiarise yourself with the journey, so it was easier to do in your night practice but maybe I'm wrong and I'm supposed to carry on with it during the day as well...I'll give it a go.
The daytime practice is important, it's required to help build a really firm set of neural pathways connecting that journey to observant, critical thinking, and to cement the reality test. Consider it also as a form of walking meditation, it's a space within the day where you really engage your mind and practice the mindset you'll need during lucidity.
