September was a whirlwind! Between the Netflix show launching, getting this little dream endeavor off the ground, and a busier-than-usual work month with my day job, I packed in waaaaay too much. I broke my first rule: prioritize great sleep! Which means, of course, my dreaming adventures were all over the place, broken, and scattered. I could barely remember tiny details, and I only inched out a few lucid experiences. I was tired. And not my best self.

So here we are, at the end of a blitzy month, culminating in a lackluster dreaming week. For the first time since I started this project last year, I did not have any lucid dreams the last week of September. My gut reaction Monday morning was pretty self-deprecating, "This is never going to happen again! It's over! I've lost it!"

What a ridiculous sentiment.

I had to remember my own wisdom. Lucid dreaming is a skill, and sometimes there will be downtimes. It takes a long time to get any good. But with balance and practice, it happens more frequently and at a higher quality. And sometimes, it doesn't go to plan.

So, don't give up if you're still trying! I will remember to do the same.
