Just put on some chapstick before bed - I like the Chapstick Overnight Lip Treatment, my lips never get dry with it on. |

OK this is driving me crazy, for the past few nights I have been trying to relax by breathing in and out and counting my breathes. Well everytime I start doing this then my lips get dry, and so does my mouth! |

you may think that it is a physiological problem but try taking your mind off of it, and just breathe deep and slow, only concentrate on breathing, completely put your lips and mouth out of you mind. Just give it a shot. |

My lips get dry easily, also. It's mainly because I am a compulsive chapstick user. I have been using chapstick since I was about thirteen, and I use it everyday, at least once every thirty minutes, if not less. Anyway, I have to use it, or I would never get to sleep or be able to concentrate on LD attempts. |

its crazy how people can get addicted to it. I almost got addicted once, but them i used coconut oil on my lips at night for about a week, and they were fine, and i rarely use chapstic now. |
|
Yeah, I've had the same problem, and when I'm doing WILD or just concentrating, chapstick is the way to go! |

yeah, if your having chapped lips, go to the store and buy coconut oil, it works for real. It also CURES athletes foot, helps with acne, and its amazing for your stomach. |
|
Maybe the saliva is because your mouth isn't clean enough? Try mouth wash or brush your teeth before it? maybe that would work? |

Yeah, but your body naturally produces saliva, so when you don't swallow for a while your glands are going to secrete alot, not matter if you mouth is clean or not. But hey, i say give it a shot, it may work for you. |

I can get right back to concentrating when I'm WILDing, but will that split-second of moving one's body ruin the WILD? Maybe I'm being too picky, but practicing right makes perfect, I guess... |

I have that problem as well as sometimes my mouth may just start to collect a lot of saliva in it forcing me to swallow it. |
|
Wait!! .......Am I dreaming right now?
LDs: 8
Most LDs in one night: 3
It's time for a new beginning...
another thing....if you smoke marijuana it causes dry mouth, so if your doing that, that could very well have an effect. It also messes up my dream recall, and concious abilities. "drugs are bad, drugs are bad mkay" |
|
Saliva seems like a pretty common problem... Maybe we should make a new sticky : How do you deal with dry lips and swallowing? or atleast a poll or something? |
