When you're body is heavy, rather than moving your limbs, you could move your body by imagining you're operating a remote control with your mind that moves your body. Just imagine the motion of pushing a throttle forward that will move you forward, or in any other direction. You could also use the remote control that's in your pocket or have one blindly handed to you. If it doesn't work ask for one that does. |
|
Yes I have tried looking at the dream slowly. I'll keep trying it to see if it helps more. |
|
You can do this if you're alone. Just reach your hand to the side while looking forward and have the glasses handed to you. Nobody has to be present for the glasses to be handed to you. |
|
Okay I'll give this a shot tonight |
|
I might have missed something you said, but i'll try to help anyway. |
|
There's a Dream Yoga section in the tutorials. I'm only going through Lesson 1 right now. So I haven't looked at the answers. |

I understand why I am rubbing my hands together. It so post to anchor you in the dream more by bring in all of your senses. It just never seems to work for me. About the paralyzed problem I think your right on that part. It doesn't always happen so ill try to go about moving in a different way next time thank you. Ill try to focus on the dream more and be more mindful but im actually pretty focused. I never lose lucidity after becoming lucid I just seem to destabilize and wake up |
|
Thanks xxphoebusxx Ill check out the dream yoga thread to see if it can help, it sounds promising. Now that I think about it I never seem to hear much in a lucid dream beyond the people I might be talking too. maybe that's the problem |
|
I can't seem to find the dream yoga section in the tutorials. We're exactly is it |
|
I read in one of Castanedas books, that if you first look to your hands (not for too long) and then focus your attention on the dream, it will help to stabilize the whole thing (repeat it several times). |
|
Thanks I'll try that tonight. Thanks for the respons |

There is a completely different approach, which led to quite a lot of lucidity in my dream once. In my lucid dream, I wished for a bed and performed WILD. Surely, this doesn't work as it works in Inception. Anyway, the second layer lucid dream was very stable and I had quite a lot of time to have fun. As my lucid dream within the lucid dream collapsed, I didn't wake up completely, I ended up in the first layer. |
|
I wrote a thing on this years ago that might help get you into the correct mindset for stabilization: Stabilization Fundamentals |
|
I am in your situation as well. I've gotten used to just wakening up from the first lucid and DEILDing back into a more stable one. Sometimes this takes 2-3 attempts. |
|
That's because everything requires your attention to exist in a dream. Fast spinning is too disorienting, and you can't properly focus on your surroundings, which can destabilize your immediate dream environment. Spinning can work, if you don't disorient yourself. The reason spinning works is because it generates a feeling of MOMENTUM. |
|
Momentum is when you can really feel yourself moving. Like if you're in a car that accelerates really fast, and you feel yourself getting pushed back in your seat. Intense movement. |

try living one actual day as if you were in a dream |
