Try a different technique. It's quite alright if this particular one doesn't work for you. Try yelling, "Prolong lucidity" or try touching the nearest object(s). |

Okay here's the down-low on staying in a dream. |

Great post StJohnny! |

I find that verbal commands work best for me. Increase clarity now, nore clarity now, increase lucidity now, basically whatever i believe is gonna stabilise my lucid dream. |
|
The one time I tried rubbing my hands, I realized that I didn't have any hands. I looked down and, upon further inspection, I didn't have a body either. |
|
sometimes rubbing my hands doesn't work for me either. I find just looking at your hands until they look realistic helps. |

Just looking at my dream hands does it for me. It's always accompanied by a little "voice in my head" that says "You're dreaming.." |
|
I read that spinning or rubbing your hands will prolong your ld, and i've spun 2x to keep from waking up(worked), never did the hand rub |

StJohnny, you are the man. |

of all the LDs ive ever had i've never rubbed my hands. |
|
Listen to StJohhny. That guy knows what he's talking about. |
|
Yeah, StJohny made it really clear. Personally I rub my hands, or just look intently at an object. Do whatever works for you. |

rubbing hands never seems to work for me.. and spinning just wakes me up. |

I tried this the other night when I finally had a lucid dream. I started to rub my hands, and I felt heat from the friction. It definitely made my dream last longer, because I kept doing this the whole time as I explored my dream. |
|
I remember one dream I had when right when I became lucid I felt very dizzy and had very very blurry vision. I started rubbing my hands together and it became much much clearer. |
|
The long worn out traveler was just now crossing the invisible film of clarity.
He found instantly that the lights were brighter and the grass really was greener.
I've heard good results from the portal technique, though i have not yet done it myself. Simply summon a portal, and say to yourself: Im going to stay in this dream for _______ minutes. Jump through the portal. Like i said, i havent done this so im not sure if it works for everyone but i've heard good results from it. Good luck. |
|
I don't use an stabilization techniques, personally. I think about Billybob's idea that all those techniques are only used because we think we will lose the dream if we don't. |

Ok, last night I did the rubbing hands thing and I will show you from my DJ what happened. "Then I don't know how, I knew I was in a dream and then the dream started to fade away and it bacame pretty much black. I rubbed my hands together as fast as I could and I don't know if I was rubbing my hands in RL. Somehow I was rewinding the dream and my body felt like it was having a seizure. I could see the dream lightly and I tried opening my eyes to get back into the dream but I opened my real eyes." |

I agree with everything you just said except for this. |
