1) When I am putting my body in sleep paralysis i have very short dreams that pop into my head. Is this normal?
2) I once had a feeling put on my head where it went totally numb and I woke back up in my dream-room. I think it was a lucid dream, but very short and I don't know how to tell. Was it a lucid dream?
3) I had a stuffy nose and a mild cold last night and tried to lucid dream. I layed there for a couple of hours and only had some vague normal dreams. Was that why I didn't even get close to a lucid dream like the night before? (#2)

Method:
sleeping for 5 hrs
wake up for 1hr, play mind games drink caffinated tea, do the dishes.
go back to sleep to start WILDing.

any suggestions?
