As Klace said, it is much easier, at least for me, to stay immobile when i'm coming out of a lucid dream. When i come out of a "normal" dream, i find that it usually encompasses a movement of my body, since i haven't hypnotized myself to not move, yet.Quote:

I must say that it's pretty funny I should find this thread today! Because I'm pretty sure this is the technique I used just this morning... and I didn't even knew it was a technique until now. I'll explain what happened :)
Right, so this morning I had a very nice dream that wasn't lucid mind you. Then suddenly the dream faded and I awoke(still eyes closed, laying complety still). I knew I had just exited the dream, and I could hear noises from around the house(my family walking around). Although I wanted to continue the feeling the dream gave me so badly that I just layed still, same position, still eyes closed and started to concentrate on falling asleep again. A very few seconds later I entered sleep paralyzis! I knew this because I have tried that before. I heard this very load noise, and immidiatly knew I was I was entering a sleep paralysiz. I don't find them scary, and so I just continue to "ignore" it. After the noise I felt like I was being dragged off my bed like a ragdoll. After that feeling faded it was like I saw myself being dragged through this tunnel very, very quickly. While this happened I started thinking to myself: "Right, it's now I have the chance of being trown into a dream scene. With that in mind I quickly started to think of a spot, and quickly came up with a car! Moments later I found myself in a car ^^ I was in my dream, lucid. I quickly jumped out of the car and was now on a road. I now remembered that the next task I had promised myself to complete was flying! And I succeeded:) I could go into more details, but this thread wasn't ment for this in the first place, so I'll leave it there.
I can deffinately say that I found it surprising! And as a technique I could easily fall in love with it, I mean I had success with this today and it was quite easy. Also, I have practiced my dream recall for a month now, and I actually found that part very easy. And therefore I were able to recall my whole dream, too. It felt good! hehe.
And the funny part was, as I stated above, that I didn't even knew it as a technique! This was the very first time I tried to do it this way.
I'll have to try this again today;)
I just used this technique this morning, but it was like 10:45 so it was a short lucid. But w/e, this technique works wonders!
So, sorry if this is already been answered... but how do I wake up at the end of each dream?!?!?!
Normally in the morning I'll just wake up and write down the 4-5 detailed, vivid dreams I remember. So I think that this theoretically should work for me... I just can't seem to wake up after a dream?
This technique is fantastic! I have almost made it work for me, and it is really easy. I was amazed at how just passively saying to my mind that I will stay still after a dream (non-lucid) works very well a lot of the time. I'll wake-up and think "ok stay still". I always experience vibrations when I remain still, I guess this is sleep paralysis as I don't move anyway, but one time I heard my grandmother's voice really loudly in my room. Luckily it doesn't freak me out now as I just tell myself it's just SP.
Anyway, my problem is, I'll wake-up, stay still, have vibrations in a matter of seconds, but then they'll go away and I don't know what happens then. I suppose I just go into a non-lucid dream. Do you have any tips for making it into a lucid dream? I'm gonna see if imagining a scene will get me into a lucid.
I have to say I love this technique though, and if I can just make it into a lucid I know this will be the best technique for me. Plus having SP is really fun sometimes (for me as I don't really find it scary and it makes me think I'm actually getting somewhere).
So yeh, any advice would be great and thank you thank you for this technique!
I'd say this thread should be stickied, it's a great technique that just about anyone can pick up with ease. I haven't tried this one in a while, but I remember the first time I did some autosuggestion for staying motionless upon waking, it worked like a charm. Upon seeing this up here again, I definitely will be trying this throughout the week. Awesome tutorial!
Why thank you!
I do believe this should be sticked as well, because of the sheer easiness and the fact that anyone that dreams can pick it up, meaning everyone can pick it up and use it. But I'm afraid that asking for a sticky would be asking too much of the moderators/administrators.
Ah Klace this is brilliant! I kind of didn't quite get it... but nearly! This morning at 5am I woke up. I had a dream about maggots, then woke up facing my clock @ 5.30. I thought I'd try DEILDing. I thought about lDing and instantly went into SP and had HI. About 1min later I fell into a semi lucid type dream!
So excited about this technique :)
Nice, glad you like the technique and congratulations on the first step of becoming a DEILD'er!
I tried this, however i forgot to not move and keep my eyes still when I woke.
However, tonight I'm going to try the self-suggestion ....hopefully it will work.
I always manage to re-enter normal dreams after waking up and going back to sleep, but I just don't think of making it an LD for some reason :P
Was there any luck using auto suggestion LiquidNine?
If not, I will update the first post tomorrow with the proper way to auto suggest for a higher rate/chance of successfully DEILD'ing
I'm NEARLY there! I can fall back into a dream and I'll border on being lucid. For example, last night:
I woke up and lay there not moving thinking about lucid dreaming. I must have slipped into a dream because I remember swimming (a huge dreamsign for me) and thinking that I could breathe under water. I put my hand up to my nose and I could breathe, so I thought GREAT! I'M DREAMING! Just as I thought that... I could feel 'the real me' twitching my hand in bed. So I woke up and continued my day.
If you didn't realise when I 'woke up' it was a false awakening. I continued about my day... a Saturday. My mum told me we were getting a puppy later in the day.
When I actually woke up I as sad, because we weren't getting a puppy. But I was happy that I had fallen into a dream using DEILD!
You are SO close.
Here is a tip I've just created in the last week or so:
"When you wake up and stay still with your eyes closed, stay still and let yourself fall into Sleep Paralysis, do not get excited and immediately do a reality check after the paralysis subsides. Stay still, and try to make yourself sink through your bed, either that or make gravity change to flip you off your bed in an upright position, because only after you can do this, are you fully immersed in the dream world. If you cannot do this, then wait for a little while after paralysis diminishes and do a reality check, keep your eyes open, though you may feel need to close them, doing so will most likely result in waking up, you do not have to blink in a dream, your eyes are perfectly closed in the real world. Walk slowly, feel the textures on your bare feet, and then you should be fully immersed, do not take any rash actions right away, let yourself sink into the dream. This may take a few lucid dreams to master, they can be much much longer as you are fully immersed"
Thanks for the tip :)
I'll keep trying because I can feel that I am ridiculously close to getting it. This is a really awesome technique that I hope people learn about.
How many lucids do you get in a week using DEILD?
I've tried every tech except this one, I'm going to try tonight...
I REALLY hope I get some results, nothing else works for me.
I'd tend to agree. But enough people seem to have been interested for you to submit this to Seeker as a tutorial. Why isn't your name here?Quote:

Does it help to try visualizing the previous dream that you just exited as you're waiting for sleep paralysis?
Thanks :) I also nearly had a DEILD last night... I woke up straight after a dream and managed to keep totally still and leave my eyes shut. I was like this but alert for about 10min and didn't experience anything :( So I kind of gave up and went to sleep.Quote:
