Lucid gravity haha

[Zera]

Today I got lucid but it was a false awakening and so I didn't do anything out of the ordinary . I was almost sure I was lucid but the nose RC didn´t work. The thing is, every time i go lucid I lose my balance...its like gravity suddenly turns on in my dream, and sometimes I wake up because of it. Does anyone else experience the same problem?

Did you mean to say "I was almost sure I was dreaming but the nose RC didn´t work"? Just a little confused there, is all. Next time you are lucid, remember that gravity doesn't necessarily have to exist at all. As soon as you realize you are dreaming, think about this, and do some stabilization techniques (rub your hands together). Good luck!

hmm. sounds like a confidence issue maybe. Have fun messing around with gravity, maybe you'll get over the problem if you realize you're the one in control. nice job getting lucid btw, its been a while since I've been lucid. see, I always get confused when people say "my RC failed" I get confused because it's meant to fail, but the fact that failed to fail makes my head spin lol

It´s kind of weird, like maybe it´s the excitement of being lucid or something but , I don´t know it's like suddenly losing your centre of balance. Still though, I have very little control in my lucids, most I can do is just ride them out...no flying or shooting fire balls yet. And about the RC that didn´t work, what I meant was, I plugged my nose and try to breathe (every time i do it in a dream, I can breathe through it like most people) but that time, I couldn´t breathe through, so I was convinced I was dreaming, but I gave it the benefit of the doubt and didn´t...you know, punch people in the face or something like that hahah.

This has happened to me as well and has been reported by numerous people on the forums . An experience of wading through water when trying to move, resulting in very sluggish. Another problem people have experienced is a loss of body control. Also another reported experience is say you are walking and yet a force keeps pulling you back hindering movement as well. Either way becoming better at controlling your lucidity will greatly help solve these problems.
