Hey there, I had my second lucid last night. But it was only lasted a few seconds (5 seconds or so), and I was wondering how you guys stay lucid?
With my first go, I just kept telling myself that I was lucid, but I didn't really do anything. And I didn't do anything in this one either - I just stay there and keep thinking to myself "I'm dreaming..".
For some reason I tend to find it rather amusing when I'm dreaming!
I could try spinning next time - if I remember...
Congrats on the LD! :D
As far as maintaining lucidity goes, when I become lucid, I like to stop whatever I'm doing, and lean up against a wall or something. Something to make me stop, calm down, take a few breaths, and stabilize the dream before continuing on. Some people also look at their hands as a way to stabilize a lucid dream (for something to look at and concentrate on).
To stabalize, I always rub my hands. It really helps make things vivid and last longer.
