On my side, either or i guess, with my knees curled up, kind of a fetal position, its the most comfortable position to sleep in for me. |

In my dream journal, besides writing down the obvious, I also write down the day and what position I was lying in when I had a lucid dream. Although there was only a slight preferance towards dreaming on Sundays - I noticed after going over my notes that it was a clear advantage for me if I were lying on my back, to have a lucid dream. Who else is aware of what position they were in at the time of their lucid dreaming? |

i've noticed this. for a while i was lying on my back... and i was getting lucid dreams... not long ones but lucid none-the-less. then i started sleeping on my stomach... i haven't had any lucid dreams for more than a couple of seconds on my stomach... but im getting more dreams. -- also when i sleep with my head facing east i seem to have really f*cked up dreams and when i sleep with my head facing west my dreams don't make any sense at all. i don't even want to try sleeping with my head north, i might die in my sleep. |

clear eyes. strong hands.
i can only lucid dream on either my stomach (which gets best results) or my back...when lieing on my stomach i dream far more often and remember it, but on my back i stay in dreams far longer...i dont seem to dream on my sides, i just feel more rested the next day if i lay on my right side in a fetal position...like LC |

Im the same as Lowercase. I sleep on my stomachs and sides only. I hate sleeping on my back and is very uncomfortable. I've only fell asleep once on my back and the next morning I got cramps because of that, but I do believe that lying on your back increases awareness in some way for me. I think I'll try it tonight just to see if any results will happen. |

Curiosity killed the cat but at least it didnt die an ignorant bastard
In one of Patricia garfields books I read that in a study that if you slowly, with your eyes still closed, move to a differant position while trying to recall your dream, that it was found that several people could recall other details of their dream when they moved to another position and then again repeating the process from several positions. (theory I believe is that you are more likely to recall certain parts of your dream if you are lyeing in the same position you were when you were having it) |

I'm on my back when I eventually fall asleep and on my back when I awake. |

I hadn't really thought about sleeping position having any affect on dreams but once I read this I started trying to remember back to the lucids I've had. If memory serves correctly each time I've had a lucid I am on my stomach with my face positioned toward the nearest wall. Something else I've noticed is that light affects my ability to go lucid. If there is a small amount of natural light in my room I have more clear dreams in general. If it is very dark in the room my dream landscapes are also very dim. Anyone else notice that? Wonder if there's a scientific-ish explanation for that. |
