Thread: Lucid sleepwalking

I was wondering if any of you fellow lucid dreamers have sleepwalked while having a lucid dream? I know I have on one occasion. I was around 9-10, and my parents had a friend over during the evening. During that time, I first walked down the stairs to the living room, and stood at the bottom of the stairs, staring at them. They tried to talk to me, but I didn't respond and went back to my room. I don't think I was having a lucid dream then, but later that night, I had a lucid dream where I was following a rabbit through a forest, if I'm not mistaken. I walked into the hallway from my room, then started to slowly wake up. The dream and real life kind of melted together, making me unable to distinguish between dream and reality. I knew I was dreaming, but yet, I found myself in the hallway at the same time as I was in a forest. I tried getting to the bathroom, but stubbed my toe and started bawling my eyes out, not knowing if the pain was real or a dream. My mom found me and took me back to bed, and that's all I remember.

Any of you experienced anything similar?

As I understand it sleepwalking occurs before REM sleep, and dreaming in non-REM sleep is rare. Because of this I don't think it is likely for this to happen.
I used to sleepwalk a lot, wake up in different rooms at various hours and I never associated this with dreams. Just as a note though, waking up in a different room at 5am as a kid and moving back to my bed definitely helped my dream recall and propensity to lucid dream.

I've sleep walked, cleaned and ate a few times.
I don't think I've ever sleep walked while lucid. I think that would be a difficult thing to have happen.

oh wow, i have never heard of this before. It sounds fascinating... I would just lock my bedroom door if i were you . And wear slippers... I wonder if you could contorl your waking body to go back to bed from your dream state...

Hmm, so it's not supposed to be possible? I wonder how I did what I did, then.

Hahahaha


You'd wake up in a desert with a few dead people around and think, "How the hell did I get here?"

I've always wonder'd...would you be able to control your physical body in a LD, like intentionally sleep walk. It would make sleeping a lot more efficient! lol
