Thread: What -ILD technique was this?

This is a really silly question. I had the strangest lucid experiences, last night, and I have no idea if I actually used a technique to induce them, or if they just happened.

I've looked through the tutorials, and cannot seem to find what matches what I experienced, unless I am totally spacing it.

I had four lucid dreams in a row, or so I think. It was the same dream, but I woke up four different times, or so I thought.

I woke up, last night, at about 2:30am. My 5yr old had a stuffy nose and couldn't breathe. So, I was up for about 20 minutes. When I went back to bed, I decided to do the WBTB technique. It failed. I fell asleep.

I started dreaming, and realized something was off. Some old man was touching my breast and saying "So, this is what a breast looks like." I replied with a "Well, I guess I could let you touch it, since you're my husband." Then I realized my husband isn't old, and I did an RC, and became lucid. I decided to follow the dream and see where it took me. It was like a story in itself. Then, I started to wake up. Everything went black. I felt awake. I didn't open my eyes, but started visualizing I was back in the same dream (I didn't want it to end, quite yet). Bam, I was back in the same dream, lucid and all.

This all happened four times. The dream would fade away, and I'd wake up, only to visualize the dream and bring it back.

It felt like I woke up, but I'm thinking that maybe I didn't? I just had one long lucid dream?

My question is...If I did wake up and made myself go back into the same dream, what technique would it be considered, if any?
