alright. thanks mate I'll be trying that next time.

There is a cure. You can't stabalize because you aren't stable. Either you aren't stable at all or you lose stability rapidly and often i'm asuming. I personally have my own methods of Dream Control and obtaining Stability and achieving Lucidity. Personally, I suggest that dreams are controlled wholey by the subconciouse. When one obtains Lucidity, Stability or Dream Control, this is using the conciouse part of our minds. This often makes our dreams unstable, as we were in our youth, learning to walk. Its almost as if youre using different muscles, accept the muscles are your conciouse and subconciouse minds and you must learn to balance them out.

THE CURE: I refer to this subject with the terms, Auto Pilot and Manual Control. One can still have a Lucid dream that is out of ones control but is still just as vivid and memorable. This is known as Auto, like auto pilot on a vehicle, you seem to go into auto pilot. You let the dream world run its course as you seem to interact and flow with your imagination. This can either cause loss of lucidity, or it can re stabalize a dream, once dream control has stressed the fabric of the dream world. Using Dream Control in either a barely memorable or a Lucid dream in my experience is the same as going into Manual. Your Manual control is when one specificly makes a conciouse decision to act and succesfully achieves the goal of said action. Example: One sees a delicious apple, picks it up and eats it. yum. = Manual control ; Example 2: One sees a delicious apple, picks it up and moans loudly, throwing the apple at the wall. wtf. = Auto Pilot

As you can see the way in which the two situations differ is that in the first decision, the person made a conciouse decision to eat the apple and concerned the subject long enough to achieve eating it. Whilst the other scenario was a more common form of dream, a random happenstance for no particular reason.

These two are different forms of dreaming. Either you can chose to walk the road you so wish, or you can drift off the path and find new places. Manual Control = Conciouse Mind , Auto Pilot = Subconciouse Mind. By balancing these two out you can gain longer, more interesting and more interactive dreams.

CONCLUSION: I suggest the next time you achieve Lucidity and are becoming unstable. Rest on one knee, both knees, etc, but in a position which you would normally be ready to stand back up in. Just by doing nothing other than standing in the same pose for few seconds and taking a breather should in theory give your subconciouse time to catch up with the conciouse decisions which you are making.

My friend! I have the same problem with the tripping over and stuff. I feel really drunk and I can't walk straight. I even makes it impossible for me to stabilize...

If you find a cure tell me please.

Thanks for your explanation

Correct, in fact over the last few nights since I had realized my form, Lucidity, Control and Stability don't seem to be issues.

Firstly, I asume perhaps that everyone has some form of constant within their dreams. Maybe a change in appearance, an object one owns, an aquaintance, specific attire there could be a number of things that could be a constant in any one persons dreams. Using myself as en example mentioned earlier; when using dream control i would notice a change in my personality, becoming more energetic and emotionally unstable, a change in voice to a lower scratchy pitch, if i wanted to move on land i would walk on my toes, at top speed i would go onto all fours and claw at the ground. After noticing these occurences i asumed perhaps i change into an alternate form when i control my dreams? I made a mental note to check my reflection when using dream control. I was rather astonished to find out after a successfull attempt at this that my subconcious had in fact created an alternate form which i posess when using dream control. I suppose an apropriate metaphor would be something like. When one dreams they are driving a vehicle, however before i knew about my alternate form, i could have been driving a golf cart or a semi and wouldnt have known the difference, as i was only used to being inside the vehicle, just as a semi truck driver knows that the vehicle creates wide turns, so do i now better understand myself in dreams and therefor have gained more control over my dreams and self as a whole.

Hi,
When you say ' now that i know exactly what i look like when using dream control, lucidity isnt even a bother,' what do you mean by that? Do you mean it's easier to get into lucidity? Thanks!
