experience. Eventually, you'll remember to remain calm if you think about it enough, it took me a while before the excitement of lucid dreaming didn't take over the dream immediately, it still does sometimes. |

I awoke at 8:00am from a full nights sleep, felt hungry and thirsty so i made breakfast and tea. After an hour i returned to bed for a nap and i experienced a False Awakening, when i rose from my bed to venture out of my room i reached the door then started to levitate in mid air. At first i was abit taken back then i realised i was lucid dreaming, i must of got too excited to continue because as i tried to move around in the dream i began to return to the floor and then before i knew it i was in the bed waking up. |

When i was dreaming it was hard to remember the techniques which i learned, such as rubbing your hands together and spinning. I have recently downloaded a subliminal message program which doesnt seem to of helped i have also tried nearly all the techniques and dream helper aids. |

That's exactly the problem that I have every time I have an LD. I always get excited and the dream usually lasts a record time of 1.5 seconds. |

Adopted Megabenman although he disappeared a while ago.
Congrats on your first LD! |

Thank you for all your replies! when i used to try the WILD technique i got as far as the REM stage shortly followed by an eye opening effect which makes it impossible to keep my eyes shut. So i switched my technique to the WBTB method which i had the above success, what i am trying now is to put little notes on the mirror in my room so i see them before bed and again when i arise. |

It's like trying to make an unrecorded appointment. My technique is to relax and know that you will remember. Do it with 100% confidence/arrogance and never allow anything to doubt you. I could always spin in dreams. (It didn't help restore the dream, though.) |

When i tried to lucid dream last night i remembered i had earplugs in my cabinet so i tried using them to increase my concentration and to focus on my breathing more. |

Mynd you, møøse bites Kan be pretty nasti...
I also try to do the hold your nose and try to breathe RC too so i can just be sure. |

The earplug thing is a good question. I don't sleep with earplugs, but I'm going to try to sleep with a rubberband around my wrist, and I'll check in the mornings to see if it's there. If not, then it's a false awakening. |

I have only ever had one false awaking i was in my bed and looked up at my clock for some reason it was on the top shelf of my cupboard my age at the time i wouldn't have been able to reach also for some reason i remember millions of lucid dreams when i was 8-10 years why is that do i lose the ability as i get older or what? |

~If at first you don't succeed destroy all evidence that you tried!~
So it seems that any alien object which is attached to your body before you sleep has a good chance of not being there when you enter a dream world. But from the recent reply post's by fellow dreamers it seems that the object may appear in the dream regardless of it being alien to your body or not. |
