      Red face More lucid dreaming in a different bed?

      Do you find that you have more lucid dreams in your own bed or a different one? I'm house sitting and tonight I'll be sleeping in someone else's home. I'm hoping the change of scenery will provide a nice long lucid dream! Do you find that you have more lucid dreams/vivid dreams in your own bed, in your lovers bed, in a hotel, on the couch, on the floor, or wherever else...?

      A lot of people say that you'll have more lucids because you will sleep lighter since you are in a different environment. Whether or not this is a legit assumption I don't know, though.

      I say a different bed or location, definitely. I have way more LDs on my parents' bed than mine, especially while napping (WBTB).

      I've always had more dreams in places other than my own bed, I'm not sure why.

      Same here, when I'm not at home, I get more LDs. It might be because we are more aware of our environment when we are not so used to it.

      Yeah a different location DEFINATELY boosts dreamcall and the chance of a lucid, everytime i go on holiday i have some of the best dreams.
      Our dreams are firsthand creations, rather than residues of waking life. We have the capacity for infinite creativity.

      Well I think it does even have a medical term in the study of sleeping disorders. Can't remember what it was exactly, but the idea was that the person has hard time falling asleep in his own bed, may lead even into rough case of insomnia.

      Of course LDs are a bit different, but regardless.. I find it easier to sleep in different bed too

      It definitely helps sometimes when I have FAs and I'm lying in my old bed again.

      Same goes for when I'm dreaming that I'm at school but I remember that I'm on vacation because of my different sleeping and wake environment.

      From my experience and like others have also said I also find that sleeping in another environment whether it be a different location or a different bed I find the number of LD's I have increases, and the vivindness of such dreams is usually a lot better.

      I tried this last night. I slept in the spare bedroom instead of my own and had very vivid dreams

      i have more lucids in my own bed, maybe because it is so comfortable and in the dream i remember i was in my house!

      if ur in a friend's house and you dream of its house u wont become lucid so easily! but if u r in your house sleeping its more easy!

      I find it harder to get lucid on other places, because tend to be anxious and wake up way to much on nights, which is less sleep and dreams, so less chance to lol

      Definitely, I always have more and better lds when I"m not in my own bed. I don't know if it's a different environment for me or what. My own bed is pretty shitty so anywhere else is better suited for relaxing for like a WBTB or Wild. I'd say three fourths of my successful wilds occur somewhere other than my bed.

      I've only had 2 lucids since joining DV and they've both been in my bed. I generally don't sleep in another bed!!! ha! Well, on Xmas eve, I'm staying at my parents, so we'll see. The one night last Saturday I stayed somewhere else. No lucid. Some weird dreams, though.

      That's all the more chances to perform a WBTB.

      Touche', but 20 minutes isn't that bad. If I am at a friends house or something it's like 1 hour+ sometimes. You got it easy haha.
