I just had my first intentional LD but my body was SOOO heavy i could barely walk. I exercised some dream control making some noisy people dissapear by turning around but i wanted to fly or something.Has anyone else had this experience? How do i make myself lighter?

That hasn't happened to me before... But it might be from nervousness or the fact that it was only your first LD, so you were uncomfortable and unsure of what to do. Other than that, I don't know.

I've never experienced heaviness but in my first ever LD I flew and now I can do it every time (can't always stay in flight!

). When you become Lucid you've got to have the confidence that you can fly no matter what. Try running as fast as you can and then jump off a cliff, imagine your self gliding and you should stay level or float to the clouds!

I think next time you have a LD you won't feel heavy, perhaps that was a one off thing. GL

That's happened to me before several times, but I never figured out how to get rid of it. Maybe you could try to teleport someplace else and see if it helps get rid of it.
