A poster a long while back made a post about chaining lucid dreams with false awakenings, I just wanted to add my two cents to that for what works well for me.

What works great for me when I actually get an LD is a combination of DEILD and false awakenings. The activities I usually participate in in a lucid dream cause me to not hold on to them for very long, 5 minutes at the most. But I am able to chain usually between 5 and 10 LDs in a row. Each time I think I have woken up I do a reality check. If I am still asleep (a false awakening) then no problem, I jump right back into full lucidity and do my thing. But usually I can only chain about 2-4 in a row before I'll wake myself up for real. In this stage, I do a DEILD, and try to reenter the dream. This usually works at lease once, sometimes twice. The combination of the two techniques causes a chain of lucids that, last time I tried, got me about 50 minutes worth of lucid dreaming, the longest I've ever obtained.

Has anyone else tried chaining through false awakenings and DEILDs?
