      This is messed up!!

      so i was in bed and i thought i had already went to sleep and i had a "dream"
      so i snapped out of the whole not knowing its just a dream thing an i finally did a reality check. i plugged my nose and tried to breath out of it and guess what happened? i could breath! i said to myself "this is a dream?". i was confused but then i could suddenly feel my body in bed. i never had a chance as i kinda woke up.






      what the heck was this? a fake dream? a real dream but i just had to wake up from it? Im REALLY confused .
      my goals->(have a lucid dream [X] sprout wings and fly [] have a conversation with a DC [X] master spark everything in sight [] turn my lucid dreams touhou based [] turn my dreams into anime [] become a runner []) thats all for now

      I've heard spinning around in circles in your dream can keep it going... try that next time.

      mmm, i wouldn't recommend spinning around. it never helped me and i hear it makes alot of people wake up. I would suggest rubbing hands together. that one is the best
      We all are so deeply interconnected; we have no option but to love all. Be kind and do good for any one and that will be reflected. The ripples of the kind heart are the highest blessings of the Universe.

      It was possibly a dream that happened as you were just barely drifting off to sleep, so when you became lucid you weren't deepened in the dream state very much, and the heightened brain activity woke you up.

      I agree with Carmine. You were likely dreaming very lightly.

      I've had a lucid or two where I've also felt my sleeping body. That's my sign that I'm about to wake up (usually) and rubbing my hands together helped me to focus on the dream and on my dreaming body. Everything went black for a while, but I kept at it and returned to the dream. The key is to keep reminding yourself that you're dreaming or you'll forget.

      Congratulations on realizing you were dreaming, though

      Ah, yeah. That happens to me a couple times especially if in the dream I am in, i'm trying to eave where I am.

      Whenever I try to will myself away from somewhere, my body responds by trying to wake me. When I feel my sleeping body and my dream body, that's my final reality check. it's my way of saying "I can feel my sleeping body, therefore this danger is not real".

      when this happens, i dive headfirst into the dream. I absorb the sounds, the smells, the surroundings, everything about where I am. I repeat to myself that this place is stable and real because I make it stable and real. it helps, usually.

      I've also read billybob's theory on world stabilization, and find that it helps me somewhat. Maybe you can try that one?

      Seems to me that there are many techniques for stabilizing your dream, just a matter of finding one that works for you.
      @ Lucidness - While meditating once I forced my inner self to also meditate, I had gotten to three meditations, I kept focusing on the fourth one. Then my mind kicked me out of my trance... it was weird.
      I am looking forward to attempting to have a dream in a dream... seems like a good way to push my mind even farther.
