    I am laying down taking a nap because I am a bit tired. I can't really call this a full on lucid dream, because I never FULLY hit the dream state, I am in the void. I am having powerful visualizations of standing in a boxing ring. I keep using the MILD technique to remind myself that I am now in a dream and becoming lucid. I look to my left and notice that there's a black guy with a small afro and beard. He looks like the kind of guy you'd expect to find at the gym back in the 80's.

    He looked similar to Michael Dokes, but with slightly shorter, curlier hair, and an 80's style mustache.

    He's standing in place, and punching the air, alternating between fists that move forward. I continue with my mnemonics, saying "I am now lucid in my dream". I find that by looking to my left, the dream state becomes more stable. I begin to alternate looking left and right. I look left just as the boxer punches with his left fist, I look right just as he punches with his right fist. We are in sync.

    I turn slightly to my right, and the boxer walks up behind me, and begins to do his punching exercise with my head in between his arms. His fists pump one after another past my face, and I remember my All Day Awareness mental training. I begin to notice the small breeze of wind that hits my face as his fist flies past. I begin to look left when his left fist moves forward, then right with his right fist. We get in sync again.

    This lasts for about 3 minutes, as I continue my mnemonics, slowly forgetting to continue them here and there.

    I was unconscious to the world around me in the waking state, but my grandfather walked into the room and said something, which woke me. I awoke feeling extremely refreshed, but at the same time wanting to go back to sleep.

    I stayed up because I had things to do.

      Oh my! You were right there. That boxer sequence was far too elaborate to only be HI, so I think you were, in fact, within the dream state. You just hadn't fully broke the connection to your actual body, so your presence was a bit more abstract. At this point, doing your ADA within the dream was a good idea and the next step would have been to accept the dream state and act as if you were fully within the dream (even if you didn't think you were). This could have gave you that extra boost to fully immerse yourself in the lucidity. Great job getting to this point, btw!
