Like sleepwalking? I think that's kind of pointless to do; people get sleep paralysis for a good reason.
btw you could have posted this in your original thread...
.........how..you do t..hat?... How were you able to disable your sleep paralysis while being lucid in the dream, and then sleep walk?!. Maybe you assumed your actual body was sleep walking when it really wasn,t.
:shock: I've heard this debated before (the possibility of it).
It sounds dangerous. Wear a safety helmet to bed or something. I only say that in partial jest.
This sounds interesting to attempt, albeit possibly dangerous. How exactly do you do this? Is it a physical thing like going to bed at a certain time and waking up or a mental thing, like being able to disable sleep paralysis while you are lucid? Tell us more.
Wow, that is prety cool. I can't think of a use for it though, but it is cool! (Well, unless you have to go to the bathroom in an LD really bad or something, so you get your real body to visit the restroom. :lol: ) That would be cool if you could fly in real life when you flew in a dream... too bad. :(
yeah thats so cool! Imagine being able to close your eyes anytime and go into a lucid dream. Like, you wait in line and you're bored and you go like, screw this.. close your eyes and start flying around and doing hot chicks.. awesome...
Well, sometimes you just don't get SP, but how can you be sure that your real body were moving? Did you move anything that was in a different order when you woke up or something like that.
I mean, i can have been a very vivid dream.
It would just be like rubbing your hands while you sleep to make lucid dreams more vivid, only super-sized :D!!
I don't see how that's possible. Sleep walking occurs in stage four non-REM sleep. LDing occurs during the REM cycle. The two are fundamentally incompatible. Unless you were mistaking hypnogognic hallucinations for an LD... I dunno, sounds dubious.
Whoa!:eek: So you woke up next to your door after you ran into it!?
Have you walked in your sleep before? Maybe you're predisposed to it. I doubt that this is something that most of us can do.
Sleepwalking doesn't sound nearly as dangerous if you're lucid. Just make sure to walk slowly and not cross any streets or anything.
And please keep us updated! If you have further success, or if you don't, I would love to hear about it! This is really fascinating and you are undoubtedly the only one around here to have done it.
Maybe there's been research to the contrary, but I don't see how you can be dreaming or in SP or doing anything associated with LDs unless you are in REM sleep. The reason all those things happen when we WILD is that we are entering REM sleep. The two go hand in hand I think.Quote:
I am pretty sure that you do not have to be in REM to lucid dream. Can anyone post some facts on this? I don't have time to go dredging the forums, but I'm pretty sure it's out there.
Not necessarily. They tend to go hand in hand, but it is entirely possible to dream during Non-REM sleep and to have dreamless REM sleep. However, these are exceptions to the rule. It is useful and convenient to equate REM sleep with dreaming sleep.
To the OP: I've never heard of this happening before, but my best guess is that you became lucid during a Non-REM dream. Sleep paralysis only occurs during REM sleep, so while you are in NREM you are still capable of moving. This is how sleepwalking is possible - sleepwalking occurs during NREM sleep stages, specifically stage 3, the transition to "slow wave"/"deep" sleep.
Anyway, could you please describe the experience to us in greater detail? I can't really tell much about how it happened from your first thread. For example, did this happen during WILD?
Alright.
I have a lucid dream. But when I am lucid dreaming I go back to my bed (from being superman XD ) Then I try really hard to move my leg I concentrate on it and I shift from seeing it to a side view and it warps between me seeing it and seeing it from a side. And I move the other leg and move my body it takes time. It feels like a half an hour. I don't know if being able to do lucids since I was 6 has anything to do with this.
