Thread: Lucid Sleep?

That's pretty interesting. I've had some similar experiences, and I've heard of some people who have experienced the same as you.

When I take afternoon naps I go through a similar thing. It's like I see my dreams form from random thoughts into full fledged dreams. It's just a WILD, and you need to learn to take it to the next step and enter a dream.

I experience that quite often, and like you I find it interesting. Sometimes I do get bored just sitting there "watching" myself sleep, but I feel that it is basically the same level of lucidity as in a dream, only the body is in non-REM (as you mentioned).

I have yet to consistently transition into a lucid dream from that state. Do a search for "yoga nidra", it is basically an old yogic practice of maintaining awareness through all stages of sleep, not just the dream state.

Hmm I know this is an old thread but it describes something that happened yesterday to me. I was on the bus then all of a sudden I realized i was asleep. There was no dream but I knew I was asleep and on the bus. I tried to form a dream but I coukdnt so I just woke myself up. Good thing too because We were just turning onto my road when I woke myself up.

Yeah, it sounds like you're asleep but not in a dream. Probably because your body isn't in REM at the moment.

Maybe you were just dreaming that you were listening to yourself sleep? Not all dreams are the same.

I just randomly remembering just think dream. no dream. sleep. no dream. make dream? nope. Wake.

I normally dont think like that in just fragments but that is what i thought yesterday.
