Thread: Can you experience a Dream induced lucid dream during Non - rapid eye movement sleep?

I was just wondering if this is possible? I sometimes have to use an uncomfortable technique if i want to dramatically increase my chances of experiencing a DILD.

I put both my arms behind my back whilst lying down and take two medium sized rubber bands, so they're around both my wrists, then i hold a medium sized book and have my fingers grabbing around it so most of my fingers are underneath the book. I have long arms so my hands are sort of cushioned by my butt. but does partially hurt after a while. This however when tried allows me to occasionally realise i'm dreaming during a dream I.E. DILD.

But is it possible that if i attempt to use this for direct sleep when i'm very tired that i will DILD?? i usually use it with WBTB but i keep going through the same process which is wake up early on alarm + use rubber bands and book technique, convince myself i'm too awake to use technique, so decide to lye down for a little while but then end up falling asleep for an hour or 2, there by wasting an opportunity to DILD.

I should also mention that WILD rarely works for me being "comfortable" simply leads me to falling asleep instead of lucid dreaming. so yea can a Dream induced lucid dream occur during non rapid eye movement sleep? if so will it be "fuzzy" as a sometimes read about? thank you for answering
