One eye closed?

Proud to say I had a lucid dream this morning, first time in an entire year too! It happened while I was dozing late in the morning, probably some type of non intentional WILD. But anyway, the one big problem however, was that for the more lucid portions, I'd always have my right eye closed. In addition, I could still feel the pressure of the pillow pushing against the right side of my face (I sleep on my side) and it was making it really hard to see anything. Anyone have this problem and have any good solutions?

Well, you were still feeling your actually body, meaning you needed to emerse yourself more in the dream. If you think about feeling your actual body then you will. Try doing some more RC's and engaging in some in depth dream activity. That should help you focus on the dream as opposed to your actual body. Alot of times if the dream is moving kind of sluggish/slow or it isn't very exciting at the moment, then you can begin to feel your normal body essentially causing you to wake up. Just focus and try to pay more attention to the dream and the dreamscape around you. When in an LD, I like to engage in some kind of activity as soon as possible. You should try this. Good Luck!

Thanks! I'll give it a try the next time I have a LD...hopefully sometimes soon.
