This morning when I woke up, I remembered being in a very vivid dream. My eyes were still closed, so I tried to relax and fall back into the dream. It worked. I was back in the same location with the same problem I was facing (it was an alien survival dream). For a split second I thought I had achieved lucidity, but when I went to move, my shoulder came up off the bed in real life.

I attempted dropping back into my dream 3 more times. Though it seemed like I was dreaming, I still had full control over my real life body, and absolutely no control as to what was going on in my dream (I myself moved around but it was more like I was following a story of myself).

It kind of felt like I was dreaming, but at the same time I'm wondering if my imagination was just running wild by itself while I had my eyes closed.

Any thoughts?
