Well what im saying is that sometimes ill wake up while being in SP. Or I
should say im conscious of being in SP, because you are obviously still
asleep. So then because i know im still sleeping, but im conscious of it....
ill sort of push myself out of the SP body and start LDing. I know exactly
what im doing and whats going on. To me its always an ideal way to
start an LD because i know im lucid, but dreaming. It rarely happens but
when it does, i always use this state to start a LD.
