how to wake up without moving ???

Can someone tell me how to wake up without moving ??? actually I woke up after moving and moving after waking up !!

Catch yourself and don't move as soon as you can after waking. You might move at first, but that's fine. Keep doing this each time you wake up, and eventually you shouldn't move at all.

Thank you Puffin for help

It takes some getting used to. At first you will likely move but tell yourself to stop once you realize it. After a couple times of waking and not moving as much you will learn to stay still altogether. It's really quite simple. Just try to move less in bed when practicing this...but even if you master this you have to work on the next step which is getting back into that dream. -Chase

Somnologists have found that often we wake up thinking about whatever we were thinking about before going to sleep. Initially I thought it wold be next to impossible to wake up without immediately moving. I would repeat gently before going to sleep that as soon as I awaken from sleep I will remain completely motionless. Within a few days I was startled to find I would waken from sleep and remain perfectly still allowing me to use lucid dreaming techniques.
