So last night i had my 4th lucid dream, but man.. this was a special one, when my reality checked worked i still couldn't believe that it was just a dream, it was that realistic.

so it started with a false awakening, i woke up in my bed and looked up at my iron maiden "trooper" poster, except this time it looked strange, so i decided to do a hand reality check, so i looked down at my hands and studied them. They just looked as normal as my everyday hands. But i still thought "something isn't right" so i did the holding your nose reality check, and i started breathing perfectly fine (such a weird experience) so after being shocked by this realization i rubbed my hands together as a stabilization technique (every time ive used this technique i get weird tingles throughout my body, why?) and when i looked up, my room just looked amazing! i could clearly seen the slight reflections in my posters, my house just looked so life like, even after knowing that i was dreaming i was still finding it hard to believe that this is all inside my head because it was sooo realistic. I told my dad "you do know that this is all a dream" (not because i thought he was real, i just wanted to know what his reaction would be) and he just walked straight past me but my brother frowned at me and started to walk towards me, so i just used my telekinesis powers and flung him in the sky unlucky for him, my brother always seems to be the victim of my lucid dreaming powers hahaha.

to gain this lucidity, i used a form of wbtb, i set my alarm 6 hours after i fell asleep so that i would be pretty far along in my REM cycle, and then i thought about being lucid until i fell asleep. do you think that, the lucid dreaming experience can improve depending on how far along the REM cycle you are? because my lucid dream was the last dream i had and it was unbelievable.

I also tried the dream spinning technique but it didnt work , any tips? and when you spin do you keep your eyes open? or close them and think about the place where you want to be?
