Staying Lucid

**kickbackseifer** · 08-05-2004 01:29 AM

I started to become lucid last night in a dream. I was driving in a car as the passenger with my father and for no apparent reason i knew it was a dream. I then sort of teleported to my basement, and things were shakey and there was witing on some pipes that wasnt normally there (the writing i mean) Now i was sleeping in my basement at the time. Could i have been awake slightly? I tried to close my eyes and vision myself some where else but couldnt everything stayed shakey and i woke up. Any tips for better control?

Well, to become more lucid, a great method is focusing on an object. I just close my eyes and picture my hands in front of me. Slowly, they actually appear and come into focus. It works great with prolonging a dream, too.

Don't focus on a digital clock though. lol It'll start going all weird.

Several tips:

Rub your hands together

Rub yoru hand against an object in the dreamscape

Yell: "increase Lucidity" and "Prolong Lucididy" or "Stop Time"

Spin
